Liv was tragically killed after being caught in the chaos of the storm, breaking the hearts of Emmerdale viewers.
Emmerdale viewers bid farewell to Liv Flaherty (Isobel Steele) on Wednesday’s episode after she was run over by a caravan. To help get to the Woolpack and watch over Paddy Kirk’s (Dominic Brunt) daughter, the newlyweds braved the storm. Although she was crushed herself while attempting to shield her husband Vinny (Bradley Johnson) from the flying car.
Emmerdale locals have experienced chaos in their lives this week as a storm wreaked havoc and destruction throughout the community.
Viewers observed the next death brought on by the storm after Harriet Finch (Katherine Dow Blyton) became the first victim of the weather.
In the episode from Tuesday, Liv and Vinny left their house to head to the Woolpack to watch over Paddy and Chas’s daughter while she was still recovering from injuries sustained when she got caught up in the chaos.
However, Liv acted quickly when she noticed a caravan that the strong winds were causing to start rolling toward her husband.
The two were hit by the car as it flew up into the air and crashed on top of them as they ran toward him to try to push him out of the way.
On Wednesday night, as it became clear that Liv would be the next character in the soap opera to pass away from the storm, viewers watched the pair’s final scenes as they wondered whether they would survive the freak accident.
After witnessing Liv’s brutal exit, viewers immediately took to Twitter to express their strong feelings about it.
“Gabby going to be devastated to hear liv have died,” said a fan of Rosie Bentham. Emmerdale, why are you doing this to us? My heart simply cannot endure this any longer.

The 21-year-old actress debuted in the soap opera in 2016 when she was chosen to play Aaron Dingle’s half-sister (Danny Miller).
The young actress has dealt with some terrifying storylines during her time on the show, including going through alcoholism last year.
The actress, however, revealed to The Mirror that she had already decided to leave the program in 2021.
The young actress said she had mixed emotions about Liv leaving because it meant she would never be able to come back, but she also noted that her character had completed a circle.
Isobel described her last scenes on set as “tragic,” adding that Liv was a young girl whose death was tragic.
“I know it will shock the audience, but sometimes people pass away in unexpected ways.
People have to deal with grief very suddenly, and that can be very difficult.
These heartbreaking scenes are some of the best I have ever worked on for the soap opera, but it has also been very emotional. I am very proud of the way we shot them.
