Emmerdale fans notice worrying change in Amelia's skin as she lies to Cathy

Emmerdale fans noticed a change in Amelia Spencer's skin tone.

The ITV soap character, played by Daisy Campbell, has been left with low self esteem after an online troll made comments about her body. Her friend, Samson, had tried to comfort her in previous episodes this week and reassured her that she looked good.

He mentioned a quick-fix approach to weight loss some women have taken by using pills bought online. Instead of deferring Amelia from focusing on her image, she decided to buy herself some pills instead.

Later scenes showed the youngster purchasing a mystery supplement called Apremine. Tonight's episode saw Amelia chatting to Cathy who has previously found out about the tablets and the two had fallen out.

But Cathy wasn't sorry about what she had said during their argument. Tonight she said: "If you're on about what I said about that muck you're taking, I'm glad I said it. You need to get rid.

"I've been reading up some more. I can't believe you spent so much on something that's so dangerous."

Amelia replied: "Yeah, alright. I've thrown them out." Cathy said: "I hope that's the truth. I've read what it can do to you and I wouldn't want that happening."

Later scenes showed Amelia taking a mouthful of the mysterious bottle she bought online. She had been lying to Cathy.

She seemed to take a funny turn as her vision turned blurry. But she insisted that she was fine.

Fans of the show seemed to think that the supplement was making the character's skin change colour. Taking to Twitter, Matthew said: "Why does Amelia look like she's been tangoed?! #Emmerdale @MrBadger62"

Gav said: "Why is Amelia turning orange. Been nicking the rabbit’s carrots I suspect #Emmerdale" Ryan said: "Amelia is lying to Cathy. She looks so orange #Emmerdale" PJ said: "Amelia's turning orange #emmerdale."

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV and ITV Hub
