Emmerdale’s Adam Thomas pays tribute to ‘brother’ Danny Miller as he exits show
The actor made an emotional exit in dramatic scenes on Tuesday night.
Emmerdale star Adam Thomas has marked his exit from the show by paying a touching birthday tribute to co-star Danny Miller.
The actor and former I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! star, who has played Adam Barton in the ITV soap for eight years, shared his love for his “best friend” and “brother” over Instagram.
On Tuesday he posted a heart-warming snap of the pair dressed up and wrote: “My last ep tonight just so happens to fall on this mans birthday!!
“Love you with all my heart happy bday brother xx.”
Miller responded on Twitter: “You break my heart. My brother. Love you. X”
Thomas’ last scenes on the show saw Miller’s character, Aaron Dingle, break him out of a prison van so he could escape jail after falsely confessing to the murder of Emma Barton.
With some emotional parting words for his wife and mother rounding off the hour-long episode, he boarded a container ship and disappeared.
Fans took to Twitter to share their relief at his freedom, but their dismay at his leaving.
One commented: “So Glad Adam got away he didn’t deserve prison Going 2 miss him so much one of my faves…#ByeAdam @adamthomas21 @emmerdale #emmerdale.”

Another wrote: “#adam leaving on #Emmerdale was a real tear jerker,” while another similar added: “Crying me eyes out here. Come back Adam!!! #Emmerdale #sosad.”
