Emmerdale's April Windsor has been subjected to some horrific online trolling, leading to emotional scenes on the ITV soap.
April, who is the daughter of Marlon Dingle and the late Donna Windsor, has been struggling after being targeted by bullies.
April set up a social media account about grief after the recent death of teen Leanna Cavanagh triggered her own memories from losing her mum - reports the Manchester Evening News.

Viewers have also seen April spending more time with Cathy and Heath Hope, who are Donna's younger siblings.
April has been consoled by Cathy and agreed not to tell Marlon about the issue, but Rhona and Marlon hear the pair speaking about the issue and Marlon demands to know the full story.
The school girl is found by her dad at Donna’s grave, and Marlon admits he knows about her internet ordeal.
They’re both tearful as he apologises for letting her down by not protecting her. Intent on ridding April of the bullies once and for all, Marlon takes her phone and deletes all her social media accounts.
He tells her he’s keeping her phone for a few weeks until it all settles down.
And with plenty more still to unravel, Emmerdale viewers will continue to see April actress Amelia Flanagan at centre stage.
The 14-year-old joined Emmerdale in 2014 and instantly became a hit among viewers - even winning three awards in the space of a year at the Inside Soap Awards and The British Soap Awards.
But Amelia isn't the only soap star in her family as both her brother and sister have been in Coronation Street since 2017.
Her younger twin siblings Isabella and William play cousins Hope Stape and Joseph Brown in the ITV soap.
Isabella, who plays the daughter of Fiz, is also set for some more big soap scenes as Hope becomes jealous of Tyrone and new girlfriend Alina preparing to welcome a baby together.
As Corrie is set to revisit Hope's bad behaviour, viewers will be wondering what she does next, after her record of causing fires and attacking her cousin.
*Emmerdale continues at 7pm on weeknights on ITV
