Laurel can’t take any more of Jai’s lies

Now Laurel knows exactly what happened to Amit and not just the version Jai fed her, she is determined he will come clean to Suni. Jai begs his wife to understand that he can’t face telling Suni the truth. He doesn’t want to lose his brother.

But Laurel sees him as weak and cowardly and tells his as much. She seeks solace in the church, but when Jai finds her there, she lets rip – and we can’t really blame her!

The row turns dark as Ashley is brought up. Jai’s jealousy (of a dead man) rears its ugly head again and he insults Laurel’s late husband. Furious Laurel sends Jai away.

Could Robert return?

A Robert return to Emmerdale has been hotly talked about, with fans constantly picking up on what they believe are hints a comeback is on the way. But is it likely?

Robert has been played by four actors. As a child he was played by Richard Smith and Christopher Smith. In 2001, Karl Davies took on the role, and when Robert returned in 2014, he was played by Ryan Hawley.

Ryan Hawley is the one who created Robron with Danny Miller as Aaron Dingle and he’s the one who everyone wants back. But where is he – and the other Roberts – now?

Where are they now?

Karl Davies has been busy since leaving Emmerdale. He’s starred as Lyle Anderson in Kingdom, and appeared in Game of Thrones, The Syndicate, Chernobyl and The Bay, among others.

Karl also starred as Daniel Cawood in Happy Valley.

Ryan Hawley took a short break from acting to focus on his family after he left Emmerdale. But recently he’s starred in All Creatures Great and Small, Silent Witness and Casualty.

Could Robert return to Emmerdale?

We hope so! Robert’s newly discovered half-brother John is in the village, and having a steamy affair with Robert’s ex-husband Aaron. Plus Ross Barton’s back too! And not to mention his son Seb has been left without either parent after Rebecca’s death.

In fact, there are so many reasons to bring Robert back to Emmerdale. And it feels right to have some Sugdens in the village, given the show revolved around the family in the early days.

We’d love to see Robert come back and so would Danny Miller, who plays Aaron. He says he’s been trying to persuade his mate Ryan to return.

Fingers crossed!
