Laurel Thomas (played by Charlotte Bellamy) and Jai Sharma (Chris Bisson) haven’t had the easiest of times when it comes to their relationship but next week’s Emmerdale will see them tie the knot.
The happy celebration comes not long after Jai learned Rishi Sharma (Bhasker Patel) wasn’t really his father and he was actually adopted.
When Jai and Laurel go to walk down the aisle, his mother Georgia (Lin Blakley) arrives and it’s clear she’s not welcome but she tries to Rishi and her son work things out.
Opening up on actress Lin’s arrival as Georgia, Laurel star Charlotte was full of praise and hinted the two soon become close friends.
“Well, they’ve only just met, but actually they get along very well,” she told Inside Soap.
“Georgia does have an edge, yet Laurel can handle things like that.
“But she’s a very colourful character, so if they brought her back anything could happen!”
Charlotte went on to pay tribute to Lin, telling the publication: “She is played by a fantastic actress called Lin Blakley, she’s absolutely brilliant and a great addition to the cast.”
Next week, Jai is taken aback when a taxi arrives at Mulberry, and his mother Georgia emerges from it.
Jai’s initial shock turns into anger, as he demands his mother to return home.
Later, a drunk Rishi encounters Georgia while heading to confront Jai and to Laurel’s shock, he soon makes a hurtful comment about her past abortion.
Georgia becomes furious at the escalation caused by Rishi’s intoxicated outburst.
The next day, Jai is happy when Laurel appears in her wedding dress and they hope to have a happy day but Rishi blurts out who Jai’s real father is.
Tensions escalate between Georgia, Jai, and Rishi, resulting in a heated argument and Rishi storms out. Frustrated, Jai assures Georgia he wants her to attend the wedding and she is grateful when he relents and allows Rishi to be present as well.
In the church, Georgia leaves a pleading message for Rishi, urging him to come to the wedding.
It remains to be seen whether Rishi and Jai will make amends or if he will miss out on the wedding altogether.
Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV from 7.30pm.
