It doesn't look like it. Billed as "attractive, funny and flirtatious", Rebecca is certain to destabilise Chrissie's standing in the village and dad Lawrence will attempt to reunite the warring sisters. But whether he's successful in his efforts remains to be seen.
Rebecca's entrance is set to be dramatic, and she will continue to raise tensions within her family and in the village for months to come.
"I am really looking forward to joining the Emmerdale cast, and so excited to be the one to put a face to the name Rebecca White," said Emily. "I can't wait to see how the village reacts to her arrival."

"The character of Rebecca is a brilliant addition to the village. She's funny, feisty and flirtatious - she might turn your fella's head but, importantly, she has a good heart," added Emmerdale series producer Iain MacLeod.
"Emily couldn't be more perfect for this role and we're delighted to have her aboard - the chemistry between her and our regulars is already electric."
Emmerdale will air Rebecca's first scene in October.
