Viewers watched Jamie tell Gabby their night together meant nothing in recent scenes, before declaring his love for Dawn.
But next week, the vet will get what’s coming to him as Will Taylor tells his daughter Dawn that Gabby is pregnant – and has moved into Home Farm.
Meanwhile, Mack mocks Jamie for the messy situation he’s got himself into, asking if Dawn knows about the pregnancy yet.
But before Jamie has a chance to come clean to Dawn, she finds him and dumps him on the spot.
Later, Mack finds Jamie drowning his sorrows in the pub and suggests an awful plan that could resolve his problems.
Jamie is horrified by Mack’s sinister idea, but admits it could work and promises to think it through.
What exactly are Jamie and Mack planning?
Viewers know that Jamie isn’t the only Tate that Gabby should be wary of.
Speaking about her character Kim’s plan to manipulate Gabby, actress Claire King recently revealed to Metro.co.uk: “She knows exactly what she’s doing. She wants to look after Gabby and the baby. She goes through all these emotions and it has to be all sorted with Laurel too as she’s her mum for the moment.
“She wants to support Gabby in doing the right thing – which is whatever Kim wants, basically. She listens to her, she bites her tongue and gives her the chance to move in, decorate, have friends in, buy her whatever she needs.”
Claire continued: “That’s Kim pulling her strings – she is hoping this will get rid of Dawn but they keep getting thwarted. Kim has to push herself to do something not very nice in the future.
“She wants Gabby in with the baby, Dawn out and she now has to start manipulating Jamie into thinking he needs to be with Gabby for the sake of the empire.”
