Nathan Wylde is a fictional character from the British ITV soap opera Emmerdale, played by Lyndon Ogbourne.

Leyla doesn't help when she borrows money from the petty cash in the farm shop's till and is caught when Nathan collects it early.

He sees money missing but conceals it when Leyla confesses and starts charming her, taking her to exclusive parties.

They sleep together but Leyla feels guilty so Nathan blackmails her to take responsibility for him crashing a car whilst drunk.

Angry at Nathan's manipulation, she visits him and tells him she won't quit her job and knees him in the groin.

Nathan is furious to discover that Faye is, in fact, Mark's first wife and Ryan is his half-brother, and that Natasha knew.

Noticing her odd behaviour, Nathan confronts her and she tells him that she killed Mark and buried his body on the Estate grounds.

Natasha later agrees to let him stay at Home Farm on one condition, that he pay back the money he blackmailed from her.

He gets council employee Tania Page to attempt to seduce David and records it with a hidden video camera and makes it seem that he is having an affair.

Natasha believes that Nathan sent the flowers as part of a sick joke and she throws them at his car as he drives up to the house.

In July 2010 Mark's body is discovered by Sam Dingle (James Hooton) whilst he is walking his dog.

The day after Mark's body is found, Nathan is arrested and questioned by the police but later released without charge due to a lack of evidence.

When he returns home, Nathan tells Natasha that if she doesn't help prove his innocence, he will report her to the police himself.

When Maisie discovers a picture on her mobile phone of Ryan wearing his necklace after the murder occurred she becomes convinced of his innocence, much to Nathan's horror.

After distracting her in the cafe, he steals her phone from her bag after she goes to the toilet and deletes the picture but she manages to obtain another copy from Katie.

Nathan is horrified that his sister thinks he is a murderer and begs Natasha to tell Maisie he is innocent and she does so.

When Mark's will is read, Nathan receives his inheritance and flaunts his wealth, telling Faye and David that he will be test driving new cars.

Nathan later visits Ryan is prison to gloat and mockingly asks him to tell Faye not to contest the will.

Nathan lets himself into Faye's house after she accidentally leaves the back door open and taunts her, telling her that Ryan's relationship with Abi would have serious repercussions for him at the trial.

But Natasha tells him that because Maisie is fragile, due to her previous mental health problems, the truth would be too much for her and it would cause her to go off the rails again.

The following day Nathan walks through the village in a daze still recuperating from his injuries, inflicted on him by Cain and Maisie.

After the Wyldes decide to leave Emmerdale and move back to London for a fresh start, Nathan is approached by Declan who offers to buy out Natasha's 49% ownership of Home Farm.

Nathan refuses point blank to accept Declan's offer so he sets about finding a new buyer.

After a few weeks, he finally finds a buyer and celebrates in The Woolpack by drinking a glass of champagne with barmaid Alicia Gallagher (Natalie Anderson), Leyla's sister.

Nathan attends Natasha's sentencing and is horrified when she is ordered to serve a minimum term of 21 years by the judge.

Furious that he had lied to her again and disgusted with his actions, Maisie leaves Home Farm despite Nathan's pleas for her to stay.
