Fans of the show took to Twitter to call Cain a hypocrite and to remind him of his earlier goings-on in the show back in his younger days.
Some Emmerdale fans might have forgotten Cain, played by Jeff Hordley, the character slept with 15-year-old Ollie Reynolds back when he was in his 20s, as part of a rather twisted plot to upset her mum Angie.
One fan, Jordan Phelps, said: "Cain you are a hypocrite, Ollie Reynolds ring a bell."
Chris P commented: "Cain I'd stfu about Nate being with younger girls. At least Chloe is over 18 we think. At least she's not 15 like Ollie Reynolds was u dirty old man."
Karen Mason questioned: "Ollie Reynolds? Amy? What a hypocrite Cain is."
Later in tonight's episode, Chloe dumped her lover Nate after he attempted to 'give her the brush off,' she said: "I'm sorry if the age gap was too much for you to handle. You are the one acting as a kid and I'm bored of waiting to find out. We were already done I just hadn't told you yet."
The episode ended with Chloe being walked home by "creepy" Noah and a montage of flashbacks with Cain saying "maybe it's just the beginning".
