Next week on Emmerdale, Jai Sharma’s divorce from Laurel Thomas takes a dramatic turn as he resorts to underhand tactics. After a major argument over Jai’s secretive behavior concerning his father, Laurel decided to end their marriage. In upcoming scenes, Laurel proposes to Gabby that she buy Jai’s shares in The Hide, which Gabby eagerly agrees to. However, Jai, stunned by this development, starts scheming to undermine Laurel.

Following advice from Caleb on how to navigate the divorce, Jai decides to deceive Laurel during mediation. To Laurel’s horror, Jai falsely claims that he has sold both Tenants Cottage and Holgate Farm to settle his debts, leaving him with nothing to offer her in the divorce settlement. Feeling conflicted, Jai seeks reassurance from Caleb, who convinces him that he owes Laurel nothing.

Emmerdale star Charley Webb, who plays Laurel, has revealed that there is no turning back for her character. She emphasized that Laurel is resolute in her decision and reflects on the saintly nature of her late husband, Ashley. She sees Jai as fundamentally different, and her recent heart attack and discovery of Jai’s actions with Amit have led her to reevaluate her life and her relationship with Jai. With a renewed perspective, Laurel questions whether she really wants to stay with someone like Jai.
