Shocking Drama Awaits Arthur Thoms
Alfie Clarke, who plays Arthur Thomas, has announced on social media that he’s coming back to the show. Last month, on June 27, Laurel explained that Arthur was travelling around Australia. This mention already sparked rumours about his comeback.
Along with a picture of the ITV soap set, the actor wrote on his Instagram, “Good to be back💪 @emmerdale #emmerdale #backtowork #soapopera #village” The post received a flurry of enthusiastic responses from fans. One follower expressed excitement about seeing the soap star back on their screens, while another praised him as their favourite actor.
A third fan mentioned how much they missed him, and a fourth added, “At last, really miss you!” However, when Arthur returns, he will find himself caught in the aftermath of his mother’s heart attack. This came after a heated argument with her husband, Jai. Although Laurel was later discharged, the couple decided to separate.
Charlotte Bellamy, who plays Laurel, hinted that a reconciliation seems unlikely. She suggested that Laurel remains firm in her stance and continues to reflect on the virtues of her late husband, Ashley, whom she considers incomparable. The actress described Ashley as almost saintly, contrasting him with Jai, whom she called a ‘rotter.’
She added that Laurel’s heart attack made her reassess her life and question whether she truly wanted to remain with someone like Jai. Well, now she had made her final decision. Let us see what happens next! Till then, for more Emmerdale spoilers, stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily! Will Arthur’s arrival impact her decision?
