Robert closes in on deadly John truth in Emmerdale as he makes two discoveries
Last week, after getting word that Owen Michaels (Simon Haines) had confessed to Nate Robinson's (Jurell Carter) murder, Robert learnt that his brother visited Owen right before he ended his life.
Smelling a rat, Robert then contacted Owen's brother Steve, who confirmed the siblings were in Hull the day Nate died, which meant Owen did not kill him.
Unfortunately, his attempt at telling the police didn't work due to Steve lying to them about where he was. It looked as though Robert wasn't being honest, so DC Cole sent him on his way after wasting police time.
In the pub, as he enjoyed a drink with Victoria (Isabel Hodgins), he discovered the time Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant) suffered an allergic reaction to nut milk, and how John saved him.
It was a very brief moment so in this evening's episode, Robert began more digging.
In the shop, Eric Pollard (Chris Chittell) said that Jacob is typically very careful with his nut allergy, and always has EpiPens dotted around in case something happens. As Robert listened, he learnt that there was one specific time that Jacob drank the wrong coffee and also didn't have a pen near him.
Conveniently, John was on hand in that exact moment to help Jacob. He used an EpiPen on him, saving his life.
Robert was incredibly suspicious, and even more so when Eric then told him about the time John saved Chas Dingle's (Lucy Pargeter) life after being spiked.

However, it was all a bit weird for Robert and if he wants to really embrace Sherlock Holmes this week, he needs to remember that the iconic puzzle solving detective doesn't believe in coincidences.
Will Robert get to the bottom of why John has saved so many people since he arrived?

I turned to ChatGPT to explain why my date went so wrong
'Let their action determine your next move – not your hope'. Staring down at my phone screen, I was so relieved to read these words. Trying to find the reason for yet another disastrous date, I had turned to the best source of clear, unbiased advice I could think of: ChatGPT. Sure, it wasn't exactly romantic but suddenly the patterns of my dating life were all starting to make sense, and I wasn't stuck in an agonising mental loop trying to figure it out. Two weeks previously, I had woken up in a hotel room, in a foreign city, rigid, shaking and tearful – my nervous system shot to pieces from a day spent masking and being on edge. My date had just left. I'd asked him if he thought we'd see each other again. 'It's not a hard yes but it's not a hard no,' he said. I understood he meant 'no'. I'd recently read a book about attachment styles and avoidant men and yet here I was again, rejected. Our first date had been amazing… How had it gone so wrong? Flashback to a couple of months earlier. I was back on the apps after a two-year break, and was just as bored as I'd been when I used them before. Too many men just wanted to text and never meet. X Factor icon Diana Vickers and Metro's dating expert Alice Giddings dive into your wildest sex, love, and dating dilemmas – every Tuesday. Listen wherever you get your podcasts or watch on YouTube. And be sure to follow and subscribe so you never miss an episode. You can also join the fun on our WhatsApp Group Chat here – share your dilemmas and Diana and Alice may just give you a call. When a Dutch guy popped up, in town for a few days, I swiped past his profile because of its lack of detail. But, when he bypassed the small talk and suggested a spontaneous meet-up I thought, why not? I'd been planning on doing a nature hike the next day – he would either be good company or, at worst, good exercise for a couple of hours. I never count first meets as dates and I knew the hiking route was popular and safe. We arrived almost at the same time and he was easy to pick out from his photo. I wasn't immediately attracted – but he turned out to be excellent company. We talked about relationships, psychology and gender roles, careers, crypto, my kids and that fact he wanted children and a dog. When the hike was over, he suddenly kissed me. 'I just felt like kissing you, so I did,' he said. It was flattering, though I was mainly buzzing from the mental stimulation that comes from great conversation. So, How Did It Go? is a weekly series that will make you cringe with second-hand embarrassment or ooze with jealousy as people share their worst and best date stories. Want to spill the beans about your own awkward encounter or love story? Contact I suggested we meet again that evening and he agreed. Now I was counting it as a date. It was fun to do my hair and feel exhilarated about someone for the first time in ages. We flirted and kissed all night and had genuine, deep conversations. Three times he said, 'Well, if you come to Holland…' I got home at 5am on a high, faith in dating apps restored. We messaged a couple of times throughout his last day and I asked if he'd meant it that I should visit. His answer was a bit of a cold shower: 'The offer still stands but you'll have to get an Airbnb'. I talked myself round; I wouldn't be comfortable in someone's house after just one date, anyway. So I booked a flight and hotel for two months' time. We texted occasionally in the meantime, which was fine by me. He checked in about my flight and asked if there was anything I wanted to do. There were some cheesy, sexual messages which were not so fine by me but by then my flight was tied to a work trip and cancelling would have been expensive and complicated. He picked me up from the airport and he was friendly but not affectionate. I followed his lead but from the outset, I was confused about what the vibe was meant to be. Our second date was a long, boring day spent talking, hanging out and going to the cinema to see the new Bridget Jones. He was still an interesting conversationalist but it was completely platonic – he didn't flirt or touch me – and I was increasingly on edge, trying to work out what was going on while acting like things were fine. When we left the cinema, he suddenly asked, 'Would you like me to come to your hotel?' I said yes, thinking this would be how we got back to what it was like before. But when we got there, he whipped out a packet of condoms – and a sex toy. 'That's way too zero to 60 for me,' I told him. But I was looking for the missing connection and so had sex. He came, I didn't, he didn't seem to notice and, shocker, I didn't feel connected. Back home, I didn't expect to hear from him again but, a week later, he messaged to say he thought we should leave it there as 'an unexpected adventure'. I wasn't interested in him any longer but I was keen to understand what the hell happened, and I needed to know how to break my pattern of always being drawn to avoidant men. Most of all, I couldn't get one question out of my head: why would he invite me to visit (three times!) and then act completely uninterested and cold? That's when I thought of ChatGPT. I created a relationship therapist and trained it on attachment styles based on the book I'd read. I fed in a detailed account of both dates and the exported file of our short but, it turns out, revealing WhatsApp chats. ChatGPT immediately analysed all the signs he was avoidant and not genuinely interested. There were far more of them than I'd seen myself. His spontaneous kiss after the hike, asking if I wanted him to come back to my hotel – both could be interpreted as low-risk, high-reward plays if he wasn't invested in the outcome. The big mystery was solved when ChatGPT showed me how I had mistakenly heard a genuine invitation when what he had actually said was 'vague, polite, and non-committal, designed to keep the moment feeling warm without emotional responsibility […] which he never backed up with: Initiative. A plan. Clear interest in seeing you again.' It was clear how his non-invitation had dictated everything about the second date. If I'd known, I never would have gone. More Trending Since then, I've honestly enjoyed talking about dating with ChatGPT far more than the actual dates. I've used my AI therapist to unpick two previous disastrous experiences with avoidant men, mentally broken up with an unrequited two-year crush and reformulated my Hinge profile to add emotional depth specifically to repel avoidants. My profile no longer centres the idea that I'm fun, easy-going and available to hang out as that is catnip to them. I hardly get any matches now, which is great, actually.

Meghan Markle 'warned' after being 'called out' by A-lister as she calculates next move
Meghan has been warned after a big name appeared to call out the Duchess of Sussex in a recent interview Meghan Markle has reportedly been "warned" after she was "called out" by an A-lister in a media interview recently. The Duchess of Sussex has been cautioned not to "challenge" Martha Stewart, who is a household name in the US. The caution follows the Hollywood star's apparent critique of the 43-year-old in a recent interview. Meghan's Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, and her brand, As Ever, have both received mixed responses. Last month, it was announced that the ex-actress would be filming a second series of her recent Netflix programme where she bakes and cooks from scratch, as well as creates homemade items like candles and bath salts. Martha, 83, an entrepreneur, TV personality, and lifestyle guru, wasn't afraid to ruffle some feathers while admitting to Yahoo Lifestyle that she hopes Meghan "knows what she's talking about" while questioning her "authenticity." "Meghan, I don't really know very well," Martha told the outlet when asked how she felt about public figures building lifestyle brands. "I hope she knows what she's talking about." She went on: "Authenticity, to me, is everything, and to be authentic and knowledgeable about your subject matter is extremely important." Speaking on Talk TV, Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield advised Meghan against confronting the TV titan. "This is a tough cookie," she said. "You don't go head-to-head with Martha Stewart. You don't challenge her. "If Martha is critical of Meghan, she has to sit back and take it because not only has Martha built her own brand from the ground up, she's lived through so many tough experiences." Martha didn't appear to have a problem with Gwyneth Paltrow, actress-turned-lifestyle guru, though, who launched her wellness and lifestyle brand, Goop, as a homespun weekly newsletter from her kitchen in 2008. "Gwyneth has been very successful," she said of the Goop founder. "She created quite an interesting body of businesses. She's admired. She won an Oscar for heaven's sake as an actress! She's pretty powerful." Seeming unfazed by the competition, she added: "I don't mind. Good luck." It comes amid reports that to Meghan Markle now that she's landed a loftier title, according to a friend. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Sophie, formerly the Countess of Wessex, secured the promotion when her husband, Prince Edward, was bestowed with his own new title to allow her to enjoy the prestigious name of Duchess of Edinburgh. Prior to this, Meghan, as the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry's wife, would have been higher in rank, meaning that royal protocol stipulated that Sophie had to curtsey to her at royal events. The royal, whose husband is the youngest child of the late Queen Elizabeth II, was reportedly "relieved" that she "no longer" had to abide by this particularly strict tradition, a friend of hers told reporters.

Lola Young is overcome with emotion as she reveals she has bought her first house amid huge success ahead of second album
She soared to fame last year when her hit song Messy went viral and she made history after becoming the youngest British female artist to score a solo number-one single since Dua Lipa in 2017. Since then Lola Young's career has gone from strength to strength with the star preparing to release her second album in September. And the singer has now celebrated a huge milestone as she shared the news with fans that she has bought her first house. Taking to Instagram on Friday, Lola, 24, was overcome with emotion as she gushed how proud she is of herself after years of hard work. She told fans: 'I am currently sitting on the floor in one of the bedrooms of my new house that I have just bought. I am so proud of myself and emotional to be honest. 'I am so excited to start a new chapter of my life here and make memories, make so memories.' She added: 'So yeah working hard does pay off, it really does.' The star took to the stage at Glastonbury in June and is set to embark on shows across the UK and US in the autumn. Her latest single d£aler was released last week, with Elton John already 'betting his house' that it is going to be a number one single. 'It's unbelievable, it's the biggest smash I have heard in years,' said the legendary musician during a chat on Apple Music. He added: 'You are going to have the most incredible career, because you can sing live, you are just the whole deal.' Earlier this year Lola was forced to address allegations she is a 'nepo baby' or an 'industry plant ' after fans discovered her aunt is Julia Donaldson, the author behind the beloved children's book The Gruffalo. People also hit out, calling Lola an 'industry plant,' which is someone who presents as organically growing their fame but have actually been set up by a label. Appearing on Capital Buzz, host Sam Pearce asked the rising star: 'Something that happens any time an artist blows up, the term industry plant gets thrown around, and obviously people have no idea that you've been working since 2019. How do you feel about that term?' She continued: 'I am so excited to start a new chapter of my life here and make memories, make so memories' Hitting back at the 'losers that comment rubbish,' Lola quipped: 'No, they don't know, otherwise they wouldn't be saying that. I think it is just the most stupid term. 'I think there are cases of industry plants but so what? It doesn't mean they're not talented and it doesn't take away from anything. 'People are saying I'm a nepo baby because my great Aunt wrote The Gruffalo. I mean what kind of rubbish is that?' She continued: 'I have so much to say on that which I can't even talk about. But I'm not a nepo baby, I'm not an industry plant, there we go I said it. 'I've cleared that up for all those losers that want to comment rubbish on the internet. Just find something better to do, you're sad, you're lonely. 'The thing is industry plant is just a term for other artists and other people to use who just don't know what they're doing in life and feel upset that someone else is having their moment. 'And if you are an industry plant, you're not going to have your moment for that long, unfortunately. 'And maybe sometimes you will, it just doesn't matter, none of these things matter. If someone's got talent, then they've got talent.' She then clarified: 'Yeah, and I'm also not an industry plant at all by the way.'
