Emmerdale spoilers follow.

Emmerdale's Andrea Tate returns to the village next week – and she's bound to be hurt by what she sees.

Andrea (Anna Nightingale) recently took time out from the Dales after realising that it was time to stop blackmailing Jamie to stay with her.

At the time, Andrea vowed to spend the break clearing her head and even gave Jamie (Alexander Lincoln) her blessing to be with Belle. However, she's about to discover that he took this on board extremely quickly.

Upcoming episodes see Belle (Eden Taylor-Draper) continue to face a backlash from the Dingle family over her connection to Jamie.

What to Read Next

Although most of the family still don't know that Jamie knocked down Moira in the recent hit and run, they disapprove of him regardless due to his place in the Tate family.

While spending time together at Home Farm, Jamie tells Belle that he wants to push ahead with divorcing Andrea, regardless of what anyone else thinks.

Belle is touched to see that Jamie is so committed to their relationship, but she fears that Andrea will react badly once she knows about his intentions.

While the under-pressure couple are busy discussing this, Andrea arrives home suddenly and interrupts the conversation.

Andrea has a lot to process as it becomes clear that Belle has already moved in and that she knows the truth about the hit and run.

Jamie's desire for a quickie divorce is also likely to be another blow for Andrea, who's still heartbroken over their break-up. Will she be able to cope and will she agree to the divorce?
