Jacob has been feeling guilty about using Liv and lying to David, and on Wednesday he raised his concerns with Maya.
She told him they were doing it for their future, but Jacob couldn’t lie anymore and dropped the bombshell he was leaving her.
Maya was seen appearing pretty devastated, before making a huge statement to him about their future together.
She was forced to convince him that after his GCSEs they could finally be together.
Sitting down with him, she promised him she was going to break up with his dad David the next day.
She also told him he could finally end things with Liv amid his guilt, while Liv herself is worried he’s gone off her.
Maya claimed that once his schooling and exams were out of the way, they could come clean.
Jacob was thrilled and kissed her, while disgusted viewers raced to Twitter over the latest twist.
They confessed they were repulsed by the storyline, as others were furious that she managed to worm her way around the situation once again.
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
