Discussing the crisis, Jai star Chris said: “Becoming the majority shareholder at the HOP puts him in a slightly different position. Kim has managed to hand some shares over to Gabby just in time to sidestep this major crisis.
“It really is on Jai’s toes to resolve this. Ultimately he’s always been fairly ruthless in business and sometimes in love, so he’s due a bit of a run now. He’s been nice for a while.
“He needed redeeming after his escapades with cocaine and Rachel. He went to the edge of whether people could like him anymore.
“We’ve probably bought him back far enough to see he’s a good person and a good dad, but when it comes to business, he’ll do what he has to do to protect his family.”
Emmerdale airs on ITV on weekdays at 7pm.
