It looks like Meena Jutla has got herself a new love interest since losing her current lover David Metcalfa to Victoria Sugden in Emmerdale.
But viewers are far from impressed with who she has got her eyes on now. In tonight's episode we saw her and David's son Jacob Gallagher played by Joe-Warren Plant getting close.
The serial killer previously murdered Jacobs girlfriend Leanna Cavanagh’s played by Mimi Slinger but he doesn’t know.

In attempts to cover her tracks she offered support to grieving Jacob even though they grew close from this he grew to dislike Meena at the start of her relationship with David but it appears he has warmed to her.
Fans quickly took to Twitter to share their opinions on this possible romance and it seems not everyone is onboard with the idea.
One tweeted: Meena's new romance isn't gonna be Jacob surely? Not even #Emmerdale would sink that low would they?
Another wrote: “Can’t wait to see Jake’s face when he finds out he’s been feeling sorry for Leanna’s killer. I hope to God he’s not her new love interest.”
A third commented: “Jacob and Meena, please no #Emmerdale”
And another concerned viewer added: “Just a minute. Wasn't Jacob becoming suspicious of Meena. Why the change of heart. It'll break his heart when the truth about Leanna's death is revealed #Emmerdale”
A fifth added: “Jacob, haven't you learnt from Maya. Stay away from Meana she's the devil #Emmerdale.
Despite this possible new relationship Jacob has previously had his suspicions about the evil nurse.
So could he be defending and trying to build a close relationship with her in an attempt to expose her murderous ways?
If that’s the case and Meena finds out it could end in disaster for Jacob.
Emmerdale is broadcast weekdays at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
