Caleb and Nicky Milligan, a father and son team from Emmerdale, have caused havoc in the community ever since they arrived there by keeping secrets and lying.
Some Emmerdale viewers think they’ve discovered a new hidden connection to the Milligans, with some ‘finding out’ a possible connection to Nicky’s (played by Lewis Cope) enigmatic mother.
In the ITV soap opera’s episode from Monday, a new client named Harry (Robert Beck) joined Corey Sanderson’s (Kyle Rowe) and Nate Robinson’s (Jurell Carter) shady side business.
Fans immediately speculated that Harry might be connected to Nicky’s mother and Caleb’s (William Ash) estranged wife.
One fan wrote on social media, “I still want to know when they will eventually casting Nicky’s mum! She needs to emerge from hiding as soon as possible.
Another responded by saying, “Think the new guy has something to do with her if he’s the boss of Caleb.”

“Deffo look forward to it,” wrote another supporter in agreement, and “Agreed,” added a fourth. I have a hunch she will shortly.
Because she shared the same name Milligan, fans have long conjectured that Nicky’s mother is the defence attorney who last year represented Meena Jutal, the murder victim played by Paige Sandhu.
Shared by @sofaneilas on Twitter: “Are you ready? You will need that hat insurance, so grab it. Barrister Milligan is none other than Nicky’s mother! #emmerdale.
@jorjah_mac wrote: “Is Meena’s defence attorney Milligan (Amy Robbins) from the court plea hearing Nicky attended? Is that the way Caleb managed to assist Kyle with legal matters? #emmerdale.”

Another person made the observation that “His wife is Meena’s barrister, whose surname is also Miligan.”
Fans of Emmerdale have been wondering who Nicky’s mother is because the character frequently makes reference to her.
He added that his mother was the reason for him and Caleb’s plot against Kim Tate (Claire King).
The hints seem to fit together, and Caleb has even boasted to other villagers about his connections to lawyers.
Harry, a recent arrival, might be related to the enigmatic family.
When Caleb (Jeff Hordley) was revealed to be Cain Dingle’s (Jeff Hordley) long-lost brother, it took some time to establish that he and Nicky were father and son.
Given the mystery surrounding Nicky’s mother and the woman who has been brought up several times, it seems likely that her name will be revealed shortly.
In the upcoming weeks, will Harry play a bigger role before his relationship with the unidentified woman is revealed?
