Emmerdale’s Laurel Thomas, portrayed by Charlotte Bellamy, is set to face more heartache in the upcoming episodes as her split from Jai Sharma, played by Chris Bisson, takes a bitter turn.
In the previous week, Laurel began to lose patience with Jai’s refusal to be truthful with his sibling about why Amit (Anil Goutam) left the village. Their argument escalates and Jai crosses a line by cruelly insulting Laurel’s late husband Ashley.
However, following their heated argument, Laurel suffered a heart attack and is rushed to hospital. Upon regaining consciousness, she reveals to Suni Sharma (Brahmdeo Shannon Ramana) about Jai’s ruthless plan to seize his shares of The HOP. She also tells Jai that their marriage is over.

This week, Laurel becomes worried when she realises that Jai still seems unusually optimistic about their marriage and believes they will remain together, despite her decision, reports the Express.
Meanwhile, Gabby Thomas, Laurel’s stepdaughter played by Rosie Bentham, is also upset when Jai decides to stay at Mulberry Cottage for a bit longer.
Jai argues that he’s making this decision for the sake of the children and wants to maintain a sense of normalcy while Laurel recovers from her heart attack – but she has made up her mind.

In the forthcoming episodes of Emmerdale, Jai continues to live in denial, remaining hopeful that he can save his marriage and move past their separation.
However, his mood takes a swift turn when Laurel declares it’s time to inform their children about their impending divorce and the end of their marriage.
The ex-couple proceed to share the heartbreaking news with their kids. Without delay, Laurel then instructs Jai to vacate Mulberry Cottage and return to Holdgate Farm.
