And Dan is completely heartbroken
Actress Katherine Dow Blyton bowed out of the ITV soap after her character spent nine years in the eponymous village.
The former vicar of St Mary’s Church was killed off amid storm week in a quad bike crash.
Harriet left a handful of heartbroken villagers behind, including her partner, Dan Spencer (played by Liam Fox).
In scenes due to air next week, Harriet’s funeral takes place in the presence of her loved ones which include her daughter figure Dawn Taylor (Olivia Bromley).
But Dan is especially moved when his own daughter, Amelia, delivers a heartfelt speech in honour of Harriet.
The teen portrayed by Daisy Campbell recently gave birth to a premature baby after being stuck out in the storm.
Harriet Finch was one of multiple villagers to take action in trying to find her and bring her to safety.
The policewoman took her quad bike while her rival Kim Tate rode on horseback in the countryside.
Kim had been warned by Lydia Dingle that a heavily pregnant Amelia was lost in the wilderness after she attempted to meet up with Noah Dingle for a picnic date.
Emmerdale fans were shocked when Amelia revealed her baby’s name as they expected a tribute to Harriet.
During a recent instalment of the Yorkshire-based drama, she told her father Dan that she had decided to name her daughter Esther.
Harriet wasn’t the only villager to meet her maker during Emmerdale’s anniversary week.
Before drama could pick up a pace, Faith Dingle ended her life, determined to not let her cancer take over.
Liv Flaherty, on the hand, breathed her last next to her husband Vinny after the pair were both crushed by a caravan.
Meanwhile, ahead of Harriet’s funeral, her daughter Dawn finds out shocking news and her ex Alex will be making life even more difficult for her once again.
Emmerdale airs from Monday to Friday at 7.30pm on ITV.
