Emmerdale: Caleb found out that Nicky is gay

Tonight, Nicky spent time with Ally away from the village, before returning back in his car. Saying goodbye, Nicky then kissed Ally.

Caleb happened to see Nicky with Ally and confronted him, furious that he would risk jeopardising their plan.

Nicky explained that he is gay and loves Ally, with Caleb being upset that Nicky hadn’t told him about his sexuality before despite telling his mum.

Caleb promised that he’d love Nicky no matter what. However, he told him that he still needed to marry Gabby. Nicky didn’t understand why Caleb needed him anymore once he gives him access to Kim’s accounts.

Nicky then rebelled and told Caleb that he could break things off with Gabby without creating any suspicion. However, Caleb told him that Nicky needed to marry Gabby so that they could get her shares of the HOP as well as Home Farm from Kim.

Reminding Nicky that they are a team, Caleb told him that he wanted to become a millionaire and help keep Nicky’s mum off the streets. He also threatened that they could both end up in prison if their plan fails.

As Caleb grabbed Nicky and demanded that he stick with the plan, he told him that he would destroy him if he ruined his chance to make serious cash. He didn’t care if they were family or not.
