EMMERDALE fans are convinced Nate’s mum’s name is ‘Cara’ after ‘leaked audition tape’ surfaced online.
It comes after two days ago Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) revealed that he is Cain Dingle's (Jeff Hordley) son - leaving viewers horrified that he had a secret affair with stepmum Moira Dingle (Natalie J. Robb).
The identity reveal has left fans wondering who Nate's mum actually is and one dedicated Emmerdale fan thinks that they've cracked it.
The fan has claimed on Twitter that an actress's audition tape was leaked online, but was deleted shortly after.
They announced: "Cara (Nate's mum) leaked audition video was put on Vimeo and then deleted about 30 minutes after the video was made public knowledge."
Despite this theory, many other fans of the popular ITV soap are still racking their brains to try and figure out the identity of the farmhand's mum.
They have flocked to Twitter to share their theories of who she might be and one unlikely choice is Faith Dingle (Sally Dexter) - Cain's mum, which would actually make him Cain's brother.
Some viewers put her name forward after noticing her strange facial expression inside the caravan where Moira and romped.
One wrote: "I have this strong feeling that Faith is Nate's mum.. by the look on her face. #Emmerdale."
Whilst another tweeted: "He might believe Cain is his dad but he won’t be. Faith is his mum, that’s why she looked so horrified in the caravan, she found something #Emmerdale."
Another potential that fans have been speculating over is Latisha Daggert (Danielle Henry) as the pair developed a relationship after they got involved in a number of petty crimes together.
On fan tweeted: "Hang on, could Nate's mum be Latisha Daggert?? 🤔🤔 #emmerdale."
On Tuesday night, viewers were left on the edge of their seats when Cain and Nate began to fight on the deck of a small yacht - and Cain decided to address the secret affair that they had both been having behind his back.
While Moira was below deck, Cain seethed: "Some women, they read magazines, watch reality TV, that kind of thing. Moira does sex.
"She says it's the only thing that stops her thinking. So when it comes to blokes, she doesn't really make the best choices."
Nate replied: "Your missus is bored of your boring life and your boring marriage. That's why he's going behind your back with me.
"In the caravan, the barn, in your bed while you were in Scotland. Last night, all night. The sex was the best she's ever had, obviously."
Filled with rage, Cain grabbed a plank and knocked him out - Nate later came round, bursting onto the deck roaring: "You're pathetic, old man."
Putting his face close to Cain's, he growled: "Nate. Short for Nathaniel. Look at me and remember.
"You see me now - Dad? You must have known that I'd come for you one day. I'm your son."
Moira was left shocked with the sudden outburst and thought that it was all a joke and said: "If you think this is funny, it's hardly the time."
"Stay out of it. Your use is over," Nate snapped back.
As Cain tried to process the information that he is in fact a father to Nate, he tried to steady himself on the boat which resulted in him sending Moira flying into the water.
Just as credits were about to roll, fans were left on the edge of their seat as they watched Moira sink to the bottom of the lake.
The Dales bad boy breathed air into Moira's lungs as he retrieved her from under the water after she was knocked off the boat at the end of last night's episode.
Viewers were left smitten with Cain's actions as he tried to save both Moira and Nate's lives despite the fact they have been romping behind his back.
