Jai Sharma heartbroken as he makes a shock discovery about Laurel Thomas in Emmerdale

Laurel’s secret is revealed during a huge confrontation in the Woolpack

JAI Sharma will be left heartbroken in Emmerdale next week as he makes a shocking discovery about his ex-Laurel Thomas.

Laurel (Charlotte Bellamy) has moved on after their split this summer, but her new relationship is set to cause a stir.

She has begun an affair with victor Charles Anderson (Kevin Mathurin), though it is initially short lived.

It’s a classic love/hate scenario as Charles and Laurel find themselves in a blazing argument one minute – and kissing the next. After this, they acknowledge that there’s an attraction which cannot be denied, and they sleep together.

In Emmerdale scenes next week, Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler) notices their connection and tries to get to the bottom of what’s going on between Laurel and Charles.

But when the truth comes out, Laurel is left torn as Nicola questions why the fling is over.

Soon, Charles and Laurel discuss their fling, eventually deciding the responsible thing to do is call it a day.

Charles and Laurel quickly give in to temptation but are then caught by her son Arthur (Alfie Clarke).

Laurel begs her son not to tell anyone, which he initially doesn’t.

However, in a bid to show off his newfound maturity to pal April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan), Arthur lies about having sex with John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth), which Laurel overhears.

Furious, Laurel heads straight to the Woolpack to confront John, who is forced to deny the allegations.

Arthur sees everything and is left modified.

In the lead of the moment, Arthur lets slip about Laurel and Charles’ fling which is overheard by a flabbergasted Jai (Chris Bisson).

Laurel and Jai split earlier this summer as Laurel had enough of Jai’s continued lies and he pushed her over the edge when he insulted her late husband Ashley.

Now the pair are going through the process of getting a divorce but Jai is making this as messy as possible.

Laurel’s new relationship is definitely set to cause some drama in the Dales as Jai no doubt sees it as a huge betrayal.

And not just from Laurel, but also from Charles who has been helping him deal with his strained relationship with his former stepson Arthur.
