Emmerdale ITVX release reveals Amy Wyatt killer cover-up
Emmerdale's latest ITVX early release delivers a bombshell in the Dingle–Tate feud: Cain Dingle told Kyle Winchester that Graham Foster has been shielding Joe Tate—the man whose actions led to Amy Wyatt's death. The revelation, streaming from 7am on ITVX ahead of the 8pm ITV1 broadcast, escalates arson attacks, a shotgun standoff, and Joe Tate's ultimatum to Graham Foster.
Kyle Winchester has made an upsetting discovery about his dead mother as the long-running family war intensifies, according to Radio Times. Viewers who watch on ITVX get the twist hours before it airs on ITV1, keeping the soap's secrets-and-revenge arc at the centre of this week's drama.
Key Takeaways
- Cain revealed that Graham Foster has been protecting Joe Tate over Amy Wyatt's death in the 2025 Valentine's Day limo crash.

- Joe issued Graham a final ultimatum to choose between the Tates and the Dingles or risk more fires.
- Another Kyle blaze trapped family dog Monty in a burning shed; vets later diagnosed Monty with cancer.
- Cain's grief over Monty may finally push him to accept radiotherapy for his own cancer.
Who is responsible for Amy Wyatt's death?
Amy Wyatt died during last year's Valentine's Day stunt when the limousine she was travelling in crashed into an icy lake. She fell through the ice and later died in hospital, alongside two other victims.
It was later revealed that Joe Tate had spiked Noah and was inadvertently responsible for the whole ordeal. Cain told Kyle he had not wanted Amy's death "tainted with anger," but ultimately revealed that Graham has been protecting Joe, whose actions led to his mother's death.
Why did Kyle Winchester become the village arsonist?
The youngster was recently revealed as the mystery arsonist who targeted Emmerdale Farm. Graham discovered Kyle had been starting the fires and, rather than tell Cain and Moira, tried to help him himself—later signing him up for cadets and gifting him an expensive army watch.
Cain and Lydia grew suspicious of the watch, and Graham confirmed Kyle's recent behaviour. When Kyle refused to stay away from Graham, Cain blurted out that Graham was protecting Amy's murderer. Devastated, Kyle headed to Home Farm demanding answers from Joe.
What happens next in the Dingle and Tate feud?
At Home Farm, Kyle asked Joe directly: "Did my mum die because of you?" Joe called it "one hell of an accusation" as Kim tried to reason with the teenager, who had grabbed a shotgun from the sideboard. Graham arrived and urged Kyle to put the gun down before he fled.
Cain then stormed over to warn the Tates to stay away from Kyle. After he left, Joe told Graham: "He's Cain Dingle's son. And unless you want more fires, or worse, this, you've got to pick a side, OK? Is that clear?" Tensions exploded at Wishing Well when Cain lashed out at Kyle, who set another shed ablaze with Monty trapped inside.
Cain rescued the dog and rushed him to the vets, but Yahoo News UK reports Paddy later told the family Monty has cancer—news that may push Cain to finally face his own illness.
