SAM Dingle panics that he’s lost his wife Lydia for good next week in Emmerdale.
The farmhand – played by James Hooton in the ITV soap – finally tied the knot with the cleaner (Karen Blick) last year after meeting back in 2017.
The pair have a strong connection, but in recent weeks they’ve both been tested.
Things hit an all time low when Lydia decided to call the police on Liv Flaherty (Isobel Victoria Steele).
She bumped into the youngster, who has been fighting an alcoholic addiction over the past year, outside the Hawksford Outdoor Pursuits in a drunken state.
Liv had been arguing with Ben Tucker (Simon Lennon) in the sports centre because she thought he was the main reason his brother Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) was leaving the village.
After their argument, Lydia bumped into the teen and was shocked by her behaviour, so called the cops.
Liv will soon face a court hearing over the murder of former kayak instructor.

But little do they know that it was actually Meena Jutla (Paige Sandhu) who brutally killed him.
The evil nurse took matters into her own hands after she found out that Ben had footage of her trying to kill Victoria Sugden (Isabel Hodgins).
The Dingle family are fuming that she betrayed their family and it puts a strain on Sam and Lydia’s relationship.
Sam makes a drastic decision and in episodes due to air next week, he fears that he may have lost his wife.
Will Sam and Lydia be able to sort things out? Or is this the end of their marriage?
