Emmerdale fans have been wondering what is wrong with Priya after noticing her odd behaviour, and the soap has confirmed in its latest spoilers that her eating disorder will be revisited. Priya's battle with anorexia was first addressed in a storyline in 2014 when she was pregnant with her daughter Amba. She later went to get help at a specialist unit for the sake of her unborn child. Elsewhere in the soap next week, Pollard brings Jacob and David closer together, while Amy and Kerry fall out. Victoria, meanwhile, is desperate to leave the village after everything gets too much for her – but will she go through with it?

Priya's anorexia returns

Priya struggles with her eating disorder and while working at Home Farm, Andrea notices her behaviour and worries about her. But will Priya confide in Andrea about how she's feeling?

Taking to Twitter after watching Priya lash out at her brother Jai for not keeping an eye on Amba during breakfast time – one viewer wrote: "Is Emmerdale revisiting Priya's eating disorder storyline?" while another added: "I think Emmerdale is revisiting Priya's anorexia!"

However, Pollard witnesses the confrontation and goes over to help resolve the situation, but as he does he grows breathless, leaving them all worried. David and Jacob quietly resolve their differences to try and keep Pollard stress-free, but Leyla is surprised when she sees them getting along, and slowly begins to hatch a plan…
