Naomi bowed out from the village last July after quitting her job at The Woolpack amid allegations that she'd been sneaking free pints to her grandfather Victor.
Throughout her one-year village stint, Naomi's main storyline revolved around the revelation that she'd witnessed Nicola being attacked by a girl gang in a car park.
Although Naomi wasn't part of the violence, she'd been trying to befriend the girls responsible so didn't step in to help Nicola or report what had happened to the police.
This sparked a feud between Nicola and the Anderson family, although they later managed to resolve their differences.
Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
