Emmerdale’s Jai Sharma is set to fight dirty amid his divorce from Laurel Thomas next week.
Fans of the soap will know that Laurel recently decided to end her marriage
to Jai following a huge row over Jai’s secretive behaviour surrounding his father Amit’s departure from the village.
In upcoming scenes, Gabby is left excited when Laurel suggests the idea of buying Jai’s shares in The Hide.
When Gabby finally reveals that Laurel is the new investor in The Hide, an incredulous Jai soon sets in motion a plan to screw Laurel over.
Following Caleb’s advice to Jai over how to play the divorce in the best way, Jai decides to tell a few lies during the divorce mediation.
At the mediation, Laurel is horrified when Jai tells the mediator he has sold both Tenant’s Cottage
and Holdgate Farm to pay off debts, leaving him with nothing to give Laurel in the divorce.
Doubting he is doing the right thing, Jai turns to Caleb, who puts his mind at ease, telling Jai that he owes Laurel nothing.
Previously opening up about her on-screen divorce, Emmerdale star Charlotte Bellamy said there is “no way back” for Laurel and Jai.
