Emmerdale’s Laurel Thomas has had a rocky love life in recent months after her romance with Jai Sharma ended, but she’s now set for more heartbreak with newcomer Kit.
Laurel (Charlotte Bellamy) believed she had found love again on the ITV soap after she grew close to physiotherapist Kit (Thoren Ferguson) – only for him to turn his head to Gabby Thomas.
Kit and Laurel’s stepdaughter are now set to have their dirty laundry aired on the soap, as ITV spoilers have revealed the Hide Café manager learns of the two-timing.
Gabby ( Rosie Bentham ) has been trying to find someone to share her life with after mainly focusing on her son Thomas and has thrown herself into the world of online dating.
However, swiping left and right proves to be trickier than she thought and she is almost at the point of giving up on the apps altogether.
That all changes though when she gets chatting to a mystery man called Chris and the two quickly arrange a date – but Gabby has no idea that her date's real name is not Chris at all, but is actually Kit.
Completely unaware that he is the same man that Laurel is seeing, the date goes well and they end up back at Home Farm, only for Laurel to walk in.
A flustered Gabby has to think fast and manages to rush Laurel out of the door before an oblivious Kit comes downstairs.
The pair arrange a second date to get to know each other more and in later scenes, Kit shows no remorse and easily juggles both of his relationships with Gabby and Laurel.
But things are set to get even more complicated when Laurel suggests to Gabby that they give double dating a try.
Kit is forced to cover up his lie at the Shop by forcing a smile and convincing Laurel he will cook a meal for them after following Marlon Dingle's tips closely.
As Laurel and Kit enjoy their meal, he continues to message Gabby, sending an apologetic message for being late.
He then finds himself weighing his options when Laurel suggests they spend the night together.
Politely declining Laurel's offer, Kit swiftly heads over to Gabby's for his second dinner of the night and things soon heat up as they make their way to the bedroom.
Chris, however, turns out to be Kit in shock scenes that see Gabby flustered when Laurel arrives at Home Farm.
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV.
