Soapwatch with JACI STEPHEN: Wedding heartache for bride Gabby trends now
EMMERDALE
Our expectations of a happy wedding are again dashed and now it’s Gabby who’ll be left with a broken heart.
It’s all getting too much for a hungover Nicky (is there ever any other kind of man in this village?) when he meets up with Ally, who suggests he marry him instead. Forget musical chairs; it’s musical lips. Complicated, or what?
So what’ll happen, come the big day? Caleb is happy that his plan to destroy Kim appears to be going like clockwork, while Gabby tells Nicky she wants him to adopt her son Thomas.
Then comes the bombshell – well, more a nuclear attack – when Nicky tells Gabby he’s gay and can’t go through with the ceremony.
This week, Jaci reflects on the sad fate of Gabby on Emmerdale. When fiancé Nicky tells her he's gay and cannot marry her, Gabby is left heartbroken
When it comes to relationships, it's never straightforward on Emmerdale. This week, when Nicky is set to marry his fiancée Gabby, he meets up with Ally, who suggests he marry him instead
Jeez! Is there anyone who isn’t a closet gay in this village these days? I’ve seen more gays in Emmerdale than I’ve ever seen living in London’s Soho, Los Angeles’s West Hollywood and Paris’s Le Marais rolled into one (maybe you’d have to have lived in all three to know what I mean, but you get my drift).
Not surprisingly, Gabby is devastated – not the first village bride to be in this position on her wedding day – but will the penny drop when Caleb panics and punches his son in the face? (Anyone else having as much difficulty following this family tree as I am? Time for a topiarist to trim those branches, I say).
When Kim’s bank accounts are emptied, will Caleb reveal who he really is? How come I have trouble getting a tenner out of a cashpoint, and Caleb manages to clean out Home Farm’s accounts?
Not buying it. The only thing that’ll ever bring Kim down is if one of her horses ODs on ketamine. Or if Will finally bores her to death.
