Reece Dinsdale has blasted rumours he’s left Emmerdale for the second time.
As Emmerdale fans likely know, Reece, 62, took a role behind the camera when his character Paul Ashdale was killed off earlier this year.
Reece, who previously appeared in Coronation Street, has been directing episodes of Emmerdale since then.

Last week, he took to Twitter to tell his followers he was taking a step back from his Emmerdale responsibilities, leaving fans to suggest he’s walking away from the soap for good.
Reece posted: "My final Emmerdale episode (for now) is the first up of tonight's two.
"Thanks to those of you who sent me messages and tweets saying how much you'd enjoyed them.
"It's a learning curve and I'm looking forward to doing more for your entertainment in 2022.”
The actor-director has shrugged off suggestions he’s left Emmerdale for good and clarified his comments.
Reece explained: "What nonsense! I’ve not quit. It’s my turn to step aside for other directors to work on the show. It’s the way it goes on Soaps. No one directs full time.
"I’ll be directing more Emmerdale eps in 2022. Nothing to see here."
