Emmerdale star Jeff Hordley has teased there is set to be yet another twist in Cain and Moira Dingle's rocky relationship.

The soap actor and his on-screen wife have certainly had their fair share of troubles, from affairs, exes and babies but have always managed to come out the other side.

Having dated in the soap since 2013, Jeff says Cain and Moira's relationship is "stable" but there could be an affair on the way. He said: "We have a very stable relationship so you can throw conflict at us, I do think you have to have some stable couples.

Jeff told The Star: "But I would love to have a storyline that's an 'almost' affair, like are they gonna?"

While co-star Rebecca Sarker, who plays Manpreet Sharma, joked: "Maybe you and me?", before adding: "It's cute and very dramatic, it's not too much angst, it's quite nice for people to just sit there and watch."

Moira- played by Natalie J Robb - has been married twice, firstly to John, who she tied the knot with in 1990, before she ended up dating and going on to marry Cain Dingle.

The pair have split a few times but have appeared stronger than ever recently, despite the struggles the family have faced with Kyle and his court hearing.

Cain has also had a rocky love life since joining the soap back in 2000, with a string of romances, affairs, pregnancies, and even incest. But his off-screen life couldn't be more different.

The 53-year-old from Crumpsall, Manchester, is married to his co-star Zoe Henry who plays Rhona Goskirk on the show. She first joined in 2001 but became a regular fixture in the Dales when she reprised her character eight years later.

Zoe and Jeff tied the knot in 2003 in a low-key ceremony at the medieval Hedingham Castle, near Sudbury in East Anglia. Speaking about working with her husband, Zoe previously shared how they support each other through difficult storylines on Emmerdale.

"It's important to have a laugh in-between takes so upsetting stories don't get you down too much", she told The Sun.

"Working on the same show as Jeff also helps because if one of us is having a bad day then the other will completely understand."

The couple has shared several insights into their married life over the years, with Zoe proclaiming that Jeff "couldn't be less like a Dingle if he tried" during an appearance on ITV's Lorraine in 2022.

The couple are parents to two children, a daughter named Violet who was born in 2005, and a son called Stan who was born in 2008.
