Emmerdale spoilers have revealed Nicky Milligan (played by Lewis Cope) is determined to distance himself from his toxic parents Caleb (Will Ash) and Ruby (Beth Cordingly) in scenes yet to air.
He’s been struggling with the fact his mother hit Ethan Anderson (Emile John) with his car in an act of revenge.
Just days later, Ethan died and Ruby has been deliberating whether to turn herself into the police station or not, as she feels his death is linked to the hit-and-run.
Ruby is desperate to keep her son on her side and said she’d hand herself in during Thursday’s hour-long episode.
When Caleb asked Nicky what his problem was as he’s been particularly angry in recent weeks over the situation, he fumed: “You two, like it’s always been. You’re so sick and twisted, you can’t even see it.”
The furious villager added: “I wanted to trust you – for once I thought you would do the right thing.”
He branded his mother Ruby “weak and pathetic” as Caleb was trying to convince her not to tell the police about her involvement in the hit-and-run.
Moments later, Nicky belted Caleb across the face and told his parents he was “so done with both of you” before storming out of the house.
Will this be the last time he speaks to them on the ITV soap?
