EMMERDALE fans are sickened by Wendy Posner after she left Victoria Sugden panicking she was going into early labour so she could get closer to her.

The midwife –  who is played by actress Susan Cookson in the ITV soap – was called by her son Luke when Victoria started experiencing contractions.

Viewers know that Wendy is the mother of Lee, the man who violently raped Victoria leaving her pregnant and devastated.

Insisting she could help she spent a long time going over Victoria’s bump and listening to the baby’s heartbeat.

But as she finally told Victoria she was experiencing Braxton Hicks – a type of phantom labour the body goes through in the run up to the real thing – her son Luke realised what she had done.

As soon as a relieved Victoria left the room he turned on his mother.

He said: “When did you know when Victoria wasn’t in labour, that she was safe, how soon did you realise?

“Pretty much immediately, right? You said before that you know within seconds.

“You wanted to take advantage to be near Lee’s kid before he’s even born.”

But unhinged Wendy insisted she just wanted to be near the baby – no matter that she put Victoria through untold stress of worrying that she could lose the baby.

She said: “You asked me to come here and help and I was thorough.

“She’s OK and the baby’s OK, so what does it hurt for me to take any moment I can with my grandson.

“I don’t know how many more I’ll get. Please don’t upset with me because I just got to listen to your little nephew’s heartbeat for the first time and it was magical.”

Her unhinged ramblings had viewers sickened.

One wrote: “So Wendy knew straight away that Victoria wasn’t in labour smh & she has the nerve to still call Victoria a liar.”

A second said: “Right, that’s it turned over, cannot watch this horrible woman Wendy and Victoria this story sickens me.”

Another added: “‘The only way I can help this child is by helping you’ – sorry, has Victoria not made it clear by now that the way you can help her is by keeping your distance? The stress of Wendy being there literally puts the baby in danger.”

They were right to worry as later Victoria visited Aaron to ask him to step up his campaign of terror against Wendy to get rid of her once and for all.
