Jai Sharma may be having a quiet time of late in Emmerdale after rekindling his romance with Laurel Thomas but things haven't always been this way. The character, played by Chris Bisson, made a swish arrival into the village with his brother Nikhil and sister Priya when they opened sweet factory back in 2009.
And in 13 years, it's fair to say Jai has been in plenty of predicaments. From discovering he was the father of Declan' Macey's supposed daughter, Mia, following her death in a road collision and having a one-night stand with Pyria's friend Rachel Breckle which resulted in her conceiving their beloved son, Archie, - to his marriage with Charity, then Declan's sister Megan and battling a cocaine addiction.
More recently, Jai has founded love with Laurel but their relationship hasn't been plain sailing. After a split following Jai taking a loan in Laurel's name, the pair rekindled only for Laurel to kick him to the kerb again when he was accused of being back on drugs after they were found in the office of his sister's wedding planning business.
