Nicky is the secret son of Kim Tate’s (Claire King) business partner Caleb Milligan (Will Ash).
Caleb is the secret son of Kim’s ex-husband Frank Tate, and he is plotting to take her down with the help of Nicky – wanting Home Farm and everything she has for themselves.
Nicky is using Gabby, the mother of Kim’s grandson Thomas, as part of his schemes and he recently proposed to her.
And in Tuesday’s episode, Nicky expressed his true feelings to Caleb about keeping up the façade, leaving fans devastated for Gabby.
Caleb criticised Nicky for not being passionate enough with Gabby as they are supposed to be an engaged couple.
Nicky confessed: “She can be so clingy sometimes,” to which Caleb encouraged him to take advantage of.
Nicky asks his dad why he expects him to marry someone he has no feelings for.
Caleb urged him to stick to their plan and reminded him: “The quicker you and Gabby set a wedding date, the quicker we get all of the Tate money and I can afford to keep up the house that your mum lives in So do it for her if you can’t do it for me.”
Later, Nicky asks his dad how his plan to take down Kim was going.
He informed him she is a “tough nut” to crack but vowed to “leave her with nothing.”
He added: “Your job is to get Gabby to set a date so we can get our hand on her share as well.”
Nicky nodded in agreement, leaving fans fearing heartbreak for Gabby.
Will Gabby work out the truth?
Taking to Twitter, one said: “I’m loving this new darker side to Nicky #Emmerdale (a hot bad boy 
) after the huge storyline twist.”
Another wrote: “I’m no fan of gobby Gabby but what creepy Caleb & nasty Nicky are doing us bloody disgusting & as plots go really
