Emmerdale newcomer Nicky (played by Lewis Cope) left fans reeling when his true identity was exposed in the ITV soap. During heated scenes with his father, Caleb Milligan (Will Ash), Nicky questioned his dad's motivation after accusing him of getting distracted by Leyla Harding (Roxy Shahidi).
The nanny quizzed his dad about what his mum would think, which led Caleb to remind him they weren't together any more. "You won't mind if I tell mum?" Nicky raged as he questioned Caleb on spending the night at Leyla's. "You have got to accept that me and your mum are separated, we can do what we want," Caleb fired back.
