Liv Flaherty takes a bold step in Emmerdale next week when she confides in Gabby Thomas about her sexuality.
Liv’s realised she’s not quite like her boy mad friends Gabby and Belle Dingle for a while, but hasn’t been able to put her finger on what exactly she’s been feeling.
Or not feeling, more to the point.

She wasn’t interested last year when Gabby got drunk and lost her virginity to tearaway Josh, while his friend Jamie expected Liv to be equally up for it.
And the confused teen even tried kissing a horrified Gerry Roberts, before they both decided they were better off as friends.
Liv tried to explain then that she just wasn’t into anyone, boys or girls.
She takes another brave step when, after setting Gabby up with Jacob Gallagher, she tells her friend that she’s asexual – and isn’t interested in either gender.
She asks Jacob to meet her and Gabby at the pavilion and Jacob is chuffed thinking Liv likes him and not realising she’s asking on Gabby’s behalf.
As the girls wait for Jacob, Liv tries to tell Gabby about being asexual.
Gabby tells Liv that she’s probably just picky, but Liv feels happy to have her friend’s support.
