Asan N’Jie and Shila Iqbal both left the show, back in 2019, in controversial fashion. According to the Metro, Asan, who played Ellis Chapman in the ITV soap, posted on Instagram: “Came back 100.”
Shila, who played Aisha Richards, shared the same snap of them catching up in London on her page later the same day.

Shila was sacked from Emmerdale after tweets featuring racist and homophobic language were uncovered. Apologising for the messages, she said at the time: “I want to say I am truly sorry to anyone who I have hurt or offended with the tweets I sent as a silly, uneducated teenager. ‘Please know I do not condone the language I used six or seven years ago.
“Even if I was having a conversation with friends and had no malice behind the tweets, the now mature and wiser me knows that it was utterly wrong of me to do so.
“Also, thank you so much to everyone who has supported me through this difficult time. Thank you to all you wonderful strangers who have reached out and sent messages of support, it means so much.’”
