Ash joined Emmerdale as the soap's first transgender character four years ago.

His character Matty is Moira Barton's child, who previously appeared on the show as Hannah.

When he returned to Butler's Farm, Cain mistook him for an intruder and punched him.

Moira instantly recognised him but struggled to accept his new appearance and criticised him for missing his sister Holly's funeral.

Ash has previously starred in Boy Meets Girl, where he played Alex.
