Cain is currently behind bars on the ITV soap for the crime he did not commit as Kyle has been whisked away by mum Amy and step-mum Moira.

However with a new family member in the mix it is sure to stir up trouble for the Dingle clan.

Caleb Milligan, played by Will Ash, will arrive on Christmas Day on the soap and is bound to cause upset for Chas and Cain with bosses at Emmerdale announcing his arrival will strain relations even more between the warring siblings.

Fans have already begun to ponder possible theroies as to who Caleb is, with many suggesting he could be the father of Chloe Harris.

One social media user questioned:  "I wonder if Cain's brother is Chloe's dad?"

Another asked: "How come this brother [has] never been mentioned before who’s his mum and dad. I bet he’s Chloe's dad." 

A third wondered: "Could this be Chloe’s dad?"

However, many fans were left utterly confused by how the character related to the cast members.

Zak, Cain's father, had a brother called Caleb Dingle, leading many to question if it was the same character and how that would work.

They wrote:  "I was led to believe that Cain's older brother (who was mentioned once in the nineties but never seen!) Was called Nathan!!! And ---- Caleb Dingle was Zak's brother (Mandy's Dad), not Cain's!!!"

Another begged for clarification, adding: "Think we need more information here Emmerdale. Is he Zak, Faith or Shadrach's kid? If he is Cain and Chas' brother that would mean he's Faith's kid?"

Viewers will soon get their answers to his identity and discover if the link made to Chloe Harris will be true.

Caleb looks set to cause a mountain of upheaval and will likely play a pivotal part of Cain's current prison story.

Will Caleb's arrival be the cause of the unmasking of many village secrets?

Will Kyle's actions finally be outed and Chas' betrayal displayed to the whole family?
