Emmerdale fans predict romance as they spot Leanna has a 'crush' on Billy

Emmerdale fans reckon there could be sparks flying between Leanna Cavanagh and Billy Fletcher.

The pair appeared to be flirting with another during Thursday’s episode and now viewers have predicted a potential romance.

They first crossed paths during the latest instalment as Leanna left Jacob a voicemail and admitted she felt like a "desperate saddo".

As she bumped into Billy eating a chocolate bar, she asked him: "Oh wow is it cheat day?"

Billy replied: "Well, I work out so I can cheat as much as I like," to which Leanna responded: "So if I do a few star jumps, I can eat chocolate 10 times a day?"

"And then visit a dentist 10 times a year," Billy said sarcastically, before asking her: "Do you want me to sort you out a fitness plan?"

"I’m fit enough, thanks," Leanna replied, but as she walked off she was seen glancing back at Billy with a grin on her face.

Taking to Twitter, one person wrote: “Ooh bit of a thing there between Leanna and Billy #Emmerdale."

The pair came together once again later in the episode as Leanna agreed to take part in a fitness class with her future step mum Leyla.

But as Leanna and Billy spend more time together, it's unsure what Jacob will make of it all if, or when, he returns to the Dales.

Jacob is currently in Portugal visiting his mother, but he and Leanna have enjoyed a romance in the past.

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
