The feisty character will bow out after Christmas.

Emmerdale's Debbie Dingle will wave goodbye to the village on New Year's Day following two shocking discoveries about her bad boy lover Ross Barton.

Debbie will decide to walk out on Ross (Michael Parr) after uncovering the extent of his recent criminal activity.

Trouble brews over the festive season when Ross takes on another dodgy job, teaming up with Aaron Livesy to rob a warehouse. He comes up with the plan to bring in extra cash for Christmas.

Debbie is angered when she learns about Ross's latest crime, but that's nothing compared to her horror when the police secure new evidence in Robert Sugden's shooting case which indicates that Ross was at the scene.

Charley Webb, who plays Debbie, revealed: "Ross denies that he shot Robert. There's a part of Debbie that believes him and a part of her that doesn't.

"There are doubts in Debbie's mind and she does question him, but she eventually gives Ross a false alibi because he's looked her in the eye and swore to her that he's telling the truth.

"She also finds out about the robbery. When he raided the warehouse, Ross thought that he was doing the right thing because various Christmas presents hadn't turned up and he was trying to be the knight in shining armour.

"For Debbie, that is not the solution. When the shooting evidence crops up too, it's something that she obviously can't be involved with."

After the truth of the situation begins to dawn on Debbie, she pays a visit to her mum Charity in prison in the hope of getting some good advice.

Once she's listened to what Charity has to say, Debbie drops a bombshell on her father Cain and old flame Andy Sugden by revealing that she has decided to leave with the kids.

Webb continued: "Debbie is completely at a loss over what to do, so that's why she goes to Charity to ask for her help. She's really heartbroken that Ross has lied to her so much and that a man who shot someone is around her children. That kind of person isn't the right role model to be in her kids' lives.

"Debbie just wants her mum to help her and understand where she's coming from. Charity has been with Cain, so Debbie thinks that she's the best person to talk to.

"It'll take Debbie time to get over this - it's not something that she's just going to snap out of. She needs to be on her own for a little bit and not put anyone else in her kids' lives, so she leaves and doesn't tell anyone where she's going."

In real life, Webb is taking maternity leave as she will soon welcome her second child with her partner and Emmerdale co-star Matthew Wolfenden (David Metcalfe). The couple are already parents to 5-year-old Buster.

"I'm at that stage now where I'm definitely ready to finish and prepare to give birth," Webb added. "I always knew that I was going to be working quite close to the birth, but I've got there now and I'm ready to chill out for a bit until the baby arrives.

"When Debbie does return, I think it'll be nice for her to come back with some kind of clarity. I can't think of any other reason why she'd come back unless she had some! It'll be interesting to see if she has changed and if she has met anyone else. Who knows?"

Emmerdale airs Debbie's exit scenes on New Year's Day at 7pm on ITV.

Emmerdale star Charley Webb reveals all about Debbie's Christmas exit

Debbie to depart after realising that Ross shot Robert!

Debbie Barton is to pack up and quit Emmerdale over the festive season after finding out that boyfriend Ross was responsible for the shooting of Robert Sugden.

"She's heartbroken that Ross has lied to her so much and also shot someone," says actress Charley Webb. "He's been around her children too. Not that she thinks they're in danger, but a person like Ross is not the right role model for them."

Debbie has, of course, had a run of bad luck with men, having once been involved with serial killer Cameron Murray, before later cheating on Pete Barton with bad boy Ross.

But Webb hopes that her character will spend her time away from the village re-revaluating her choice in fellas. "I think it will take her time. It's not something she can just snap out of. Maybe she needs to start making better decisions and be on her own for a bit," says the actress. "There might be some changing for her to do while she's away."

Debbie's departure will air on New Year's Day after she makes a visit to the prison to see mum Charity. With Charity comparing Debbie's relationship with Ross to her combustible partnership with Cain, Debbie comes to the realisation that she needs to leave with her kids.

For a heavily pregnant Webb, though, the chance to take her maternity leave after a high-profile year on the ITV soap is coming as something of a relief. "Yes, I've got to the stage where I'm prepared to give birth now. I always knew that finishing up at Emmerdale was going to be close to my due date, but now that I've got there, I'm ready to chill out a bit before the baby arrives."

Top of Debbie’s festive list is to spend Christmas with the man she loves, but Ross wrecks her dream when he indulges in a spot of theft. To get his hands on some cash to buy some gifts, he robs a warehouse and drags Aaron along as his lookout.

Unfortunately, a warehouse worker clocks a shifty Aaron, and soon the police roar into the village looking for a man matching his description.

“Ross thinks he’s doing the right thing for Debbie,” explain’s Charley Webb, who plays his stressed girlfriend, “He’s trying to be a night in shining armour, but she’s like ‘my god, no’ “

After DS Hart interrupts the village nativity to question Aaron, Ross is next on her list. He denies everything as they talk, she makes an observation that places Ross at the scene of Robert Sugden’s attempted murder.

Later, a frightened Ross, promises Debbie he had nothing to do with shooting of Robert, but she’s far from convinced.

“She does give him a alibi for the shooting, “ reveals Charley, “She thinks :’He swore to me’ But ultimately, she knows he could of done it.”

After visiting Charity in prison, Debbie makes a decision. When her mum compares Debbie’s relationship to the one she shared with Cain, she decides to take the kids and leave the village before Ross can stop her. “Debbie’s heartbroken,” admits Charley, “Ross lied to her, and he shot someone! He is not the right role model for her kids.”

As Debbie bids goodbye to Moria and the Dingles, Charley is looking forward to taking a break from the soap. The actress is expecting her second child with her co-star Matthew Wolfenden, who plays David Metcalfe, with whom he already has a five year old son, Buster.

“I’m a real homebird, so I’m looking forward to just being mum,“ say’s Charley, “Buster has always wanted a new brother or sister so he’s really excited,

“He can’t wait for Christmas too, We’ve been writing his letter to Santa. He want’s Scalextric and lego. I’ll make sure things are as normal as possible, as he is only young, and these years are so important.”

And when when she wakes up on the big day, Charley knows exactly what her own festive wish will be, “All I’d like for Christmas, she smiles, “Is a healhy baby & a happy five year old”.

dump him, call the cops, restraining order etc., but moving herself and her kids away from her family and their father plus business and home is extreme

i know the writers need an exit for debbie for charley's maternity but this is not great, she goes off alone with the kids
