Emmerdale fans were left baffled on Wednesday night as Wendy Posner’s big secret was revealed in a face-off with her ex-husband Russ.
When Russ arrived in the village just a few weeks ago, viewers were puzzled over the hold he had on Wendy which convinced her to be a part of his plan to scam Victoria out of her son’s inheritance.
But viewers weren’t entirely pleased with the answer as they watched the hit ITV show as Wendy tried to convince Vic not to send over the £50,000 in a last-minute act of kindness.

After the loving nurse heard the news that Vic was sending over the money that afternoon, she ran over to The Hide in an effort to change her mind compelled by her guilty conscience.
While she begged café owner not to hand over the money, Wendy went on to explain that Russ was blackmailing her with a secret that could land her time in prison.
But it was when Russ interrupted her desperate plea that Victoria discovered the truth about Wendy’s employment history when she admitted she has never qualified as a nurse despite practicing in the village.

A frustrated Russ entered the café with complaints that the large sum of money wasn’t put into his bank account by midday despite Victoria’s previous claims.
After Wendy urged her to reconsider, Russ decided to spill the beans on the reality of her medical background.
He threatened: “Do you really want me to tell her?”
To which Wendy replied: “I was just about to myself as it happens.”
Unconvinced, Russ added: “’Course you were, go on then. Let’s see if you’re actually brave enough.”
A tearful Wendy turned to a confused Victoria and admitted: “I never qualified as a nurse.”

And it’s fair to say fans were left just as confused as they were when Russ first entered the village, as viewers took to Twitter to question the logistics behind her employment history.
One viewer wrote: “Dear god, what will they come up with next? Wendy never qualified as a nurse. How the hell does she have a job as one then? Has no-one ever checked her qualifications.”
Another added: “Wendy never qualified as a nurse. So how has she got her job then?” as a third agreed: “So, Liam never got references for Wendy when he took her on at his doctor’s surgery???”
Meanwhile, a fan joked: “I’d still have Wendy be my nurse than Meena.”
