Emmerdale viewers could be about to see a murderous twist in the coming weeks.
It’s all because of Maya Stepney (played by Louisa Clein) who has been grooming young Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant) over the past couple of months.
Despite being almost double his age, Maya has a disgusting fascination with the teenager and as a result, has been controlling his life.
He has tried to move away from her, but to no avail and it seems the coming weeks could see more spiralling drama for the youngster.
Jacob is currently seeing Liv Flaherty (Isobel Steele) and the pair have formed a sweet relationship.
Liv is asexual but has opened up to him and they have shared a tender kiss.
However, they were being watched by a jealous Maya, who doesn’t like seeing Jacob stray away from her.
Last night, the mere sight of the smooch sent her into a fury.
But will she take it out on Liv? Are her intentions about to turn murderous?
Many fans certainly think so and have flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts.
One said: “Mad Maya will be on the warpath after that kiss.”
Another added: Maya is vile, manipulating a young boy. Liv doesn’t deserve to be treated like a puppet on a string!”
A third commented: “Nasty Maya jealous of Liv and Jacob.”
In the coming weeks, Jacob and Maya could have sex.
The young lad wants to impress her and maybe try to bed her.
He sets up a romantic stay in the summer house but his girlfriend Liv arrives at the wrong time.
She thinks it’s a surprise for her and he has to quickly cover his tracks.
However at the same time, Maya and David Metcalfe (Matthew Wolfenden) plan to go on a romantic weekend away.
But Jacob does his best to delay the getaway. Will David realise what’s going on?
Emmerdale airs weekdays on ITV from 7pm.
