Emmerdale: Jai discovered that he’s adopted

In last night’s episode of Emmerdale, Jai accidentally booked the Honeymoon Suite for a family holiday.

Laurel then told him to keep the booking before proposing to him. Jai accepted her proposal and rushed off to find his divorce papers.

However, he then knocked over a box of legal documents and found one that gave him a right shock. He found a certificate that revealed that he was in fact adopted. Rishi isn’t his biological father.

He was furious that Rishi had been lying to him for all of these years.

Emmerdale fans spot huge plot holes in Jai storyline

Emmerdale fans have spotted some huge plot holes in Jai’s adoption storyline. They’ve realised that he would’ve needed his birth certificate when he married Megan and Charity.

Jai also drives and has a passport. How it is possible that he’s not seen his birth certificate and adoption papers until now?

One person wondered: “How has Jai never needed his birth certificate before? He drives, and has a passport”

Another viewer commented: “Ridiculous. Did he not need his birth certificate when he married Charity and then Megan???”

A third person shared: “So which birth certificate has he been using all his life? I’m pretty sure he would need it for his passport and to get married.”
