Leyla Cavanagh is currently on a downward spiral as she continues to be in denial about her drug addiction in Emmerdale. The wedding planner has denied she has a problem for months after her party pal Suzy Metron encouraged her to stop and get help.
Earlier this week, viewers of the ITV soap were stunned when the wedding planner fired Priya Sharma from Take A Vow amid making a deal with a drug dealer. During Monday's episode, the business owner ended up firing her colleague on the spot for gross misconduct after she used the company credit card to take a client to lunch.
Later, Leyla called her drug dealer Callum when he ominously said he would be ‘calling in a favour’ at some point. But she didn't seem to care and happily got her latest batch of drugs ready while celebrating she had the business all to herself.

And despite vowing to kick her drug habit, she agreed to store drugs for Callum in exchange for cash amid her wedding planning business' worsening financial situation. However, she was shocked when Callum showed up with a larger amount than she agreed to stash and appeared uneasy about the deal.
But with Callum not making it easy for her to back out, Leyla eventually accepted the offer and stored the haul in her office. However, viewers saw Matty Barton break into Leyla's office at the end of Wedneday's episode (August 3) after seeing Suzy and Callum together outside.
Vying for revenge after he found out Suzy had given his late sister Holly money which she later spent on drugs and died from an overdose, Matty stole the stash of drugs. But Emmerdale fans were left concerned and believed that Matty had 'crossed the line'.
@11syoung tweeted: "Matty has crossed the line and signed Leylas death warrant!! #emmerdale." @macnamara60 tweeted: "So man mountain Matty gets Leyla killed by nicking the stash then gets pulled by Swirling for having an enormous quantity of gear & gets sent down for 15 years? Win-win, I’d say. #Emmerdale."
@unsworth1live echoed: "#Emmerdale Matty what have you done? Layla is dead meat & typical Matty getting it wrong again." @mishybabez_ fumed: "Matty you muppet! Leyla is gonna be in big trouble bc of you!! #Emmerdale." But @Jamal06122771 argued: "Oh Matty what the hell are you doing. Then again serves Leyla right, you know your looking after drugs that are not yours, why keep the office keys in a plant pot outside. Duh. #emmerdale."
