Last year, David Metcalfe made the difficult decision to leave his home in Emmerdale. It was a heartbreaking moment for his loved ones, especially his step-son Jacob Gallagher who received the news from his dad himself. David had left the village in November, seeking some time away from the drama and chaos that had consumed his life.
The reason for David's departure was a complicated one. He had recently found out that Jacob was dating Victoria Sugden, David's ex-partner and the woman he still harbored feelings for. It was a tough pill to swallow, realizing that his efforts to win Victoria back would never be enough because she was already involved with his own son. On top of that, David's father Eric Pollard had just been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, adding to the already difficult situation.
David's decision to leave was also influenced by his daughter Amba, whom he shared with his ex-wife Priya. She had moved to London and was missing her father, so David decided it was time for a change of scenery. It was a bittersweet moment for actor Matthew Wolfenden, who had been a part of the show for 17 years. But he was excited to pursue other projects, like his role in Elf The Musical where he could showcase his skating skills that had won him Dancing On Ice.
Despite his departure, David's presence was still felt in the village. For one, he had left behind a trail of broken hearts, including Jacob and Victoria who had to face the consequences of their relationship. They had to come clean to Pollard and Jacob's mother Leyla about their feelings for each other, and it wasn't easy. But once the truth was out, they were able to focus on their relationship without any more secrets.
Meanwhile, Jacob never gave up hope that his father would return to the village one day. But when he received a message from David, it shattered those dreams. It seemed that even though David was alive and well, he had made the decision to never come back to the Dales. It was a harsh reality for Jacob to face, and he couldn't help but feel betrayed by his own father.
Victoria, on the other hand, was overwhelmed with guilt. She couldn't believe that her pursuit of happiness with Jacob had caused so much pain and turmoil for his family. She wondered if their relationship could survive this latest blow, and if they would ever find peace and happiness amidst all the drama.
But one thing was for sure, the residents of Emmerdale would never forget the impact that David Metcalfe had on their lives, and his absence would be felt for a long time to come.
