Emmerdale's Sadie King (Patsy Kensit) has accidentally revealed a key piece of information to Ruby, proving she wasn't in a relationship with Jimmy King (Nick Miles) prior to his death.
The iconic face returned to the village last month, much to the shock of everyone. Sadie claimed she was back to pay her respects to Jimmy, who died after crashing his car into a marquee. Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler) knew Sadie was hiding a secret, because she literally always is. To her horror, Nicola then discovered that Sadie was in a secret relationship with Jimmy for three years.
For a little while, it certainly looked like her claim was true as Sadie was able to back up her comments with photos of her and Jimmy, along with sharing information about Carl, Elliot and Angelica.
Sadie's real plan revealed
As Nicola reeled over the news that her beloved partner had kept this secret for so long, viewers of the ITV soap learnt about Sadie's real plan. She knew about Jimmy hiding a large amount of cash somewhere, and was in town to try and find it. The relationship story was completely false, and got created to try and get close to Nicola.
Assisting Sadie with this plan is Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley), who will secure half of the money – if they actually find it.
Ruby catches Sadie's slip
Sadie reached the conclusion in today's episode that Jimmy had hidden the cash somewhere in the depot. All she had to do was sneak into the building and get searching – but she was then caught by Ruby. A quick comment about Ruby's wine business and how she was in search of a friend meant Sadie was in the clear after being confronted. The two women connected while at the depot, and continued bonding back at Ruby's house.
By this point, Sadie had consumed a lot more alcohol than Ruby, which meant her mouth ran away with her when she started talking about the last man to sweep her off her feet. Sadie reflected on being charmed by a man called Federico, who took her to New York last Christmas. As she slowly started to fall asleep, Sadie revealed that her situationship with Federico only happened last year.
Ruby was immediately curious, but couldn't get any answers as Sadie had fallen asleep. Ruby isn't someone who ignores her suspicions. If she confronts Sadie about her comments, will she discover the claims about Jimmy aren't true? Or will Sadie create a cover story that puts her in the clear?
