Well, yes she could do that. A year apart could change a couple though.Quote:

It is too soon for Alicia to leave already I hope it is not this soon
Natalie Anderson has explained character Alicia Metcalfe's decision to leave the village and her husband David behind next week.
Upcoming episodes will Alicia and David will reach the end of the road as they fail to reach an agreement on their future.
Since arriving back in the village to support Eric following Val's death, it has become clear that the couple have very different ideas over what to do next.
The pair's differences increase next week David takes steps to regain ownership of the shop, prompting a concerned Alicia to try and take action.
When Alicia's attempts to help Eric move forward backfires, she is horrified to hear David bad-mouthing her and he later questions her over how much she has changed.
With David keen to move back to the village to look after his dad, and Alicia unable to settle there after what she has been through, it seems that the pair are destined to to live their lives apart.
Anderson said: "Portugal is bright and sunny and Alicia felt that she had a future again. Thus whole thing with Val has just reminded her of how dark the village really is.
"The village was a place that she loved very much, but at the moment it just holds very dark memories for her. Not just with Lachlan but with Cameron as well and now Val's death - there are a lot of painful memories for her."
"David never wanted to go to Portugal in the first place and obviously his dad Eric is in a really bad way following Val's death.
"Also, there is a kind of excuse there that with Eric being in such a bad way, he gets to stay around for Amba and he starts talking about buying the shop back. His life is very much in the village and he didn't want to leave in the first place."
alicia leaving lets lachlan win can he leave with his mother instead
alicia isn't cut up over val or shows no sign of trauma from cameron shooting
I don't like this exit for AliciaQuote:

I don´t know if Natalie has any other work but I find it sad that the only tv work I have seen her do since leaving Emmerdale is advertising what you can win on This Morning :( Maybe it suits her life better to be less busy, just seems a shame to split her and David up in the storyline and causing Jacob so much anxiety ...
no alicia back and jacob in hospital how will that be explained
