Emmerdale's Cathy Hope (played by Gabrielle Dowling) recently opened up to her pal April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan) about her plan to get pregnant by love interest Samson Dingle (Sam Hall).

Samson already shares a young child with Amelia Spencer (Daisy Campbell) on the ITV soap after she gave birth during last year's Super Soap Week in a barn.

Cathy came up with the idea as a way to handle her Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder which causes mood swings and heavy periods.

Through research, Cathy has found pregnancy can potentially ease her symptoms for months - possibly forever. 

However, April was staggered to realise just how far Cathy is willing to go to allay her symptoms.

In scenes yet to air on the ITV soap, April reveals Cathy's pregnancy plan to a stunned Samson. 

Incredulous and hurt, he searches for answers from Cathy who isn't sure how to respond. Will he break up with Cathy?

Later on, Bob Hope's (Tony Audenshaw) tour of the B&B ends up getting ruined as he walks in on April and Cathy fighting with one another.

Will the girls be able to put their differences aside and move on together? Or is there no going back following this bitter argument?

Cathy has been struggling for the past year with her emotions and has lashed out at her father Bob as well as others in the village. 

The diagnosis came as some relief to the youngster, but she is still finding it hard to navigate her way through her teenage years with the condition. 

Could Cathy end up with a bigger fight on her hands if Amelia finds out about her plans to get pregnant with her ex Samson? Amelia has moved on, but wouldn't want him to be hurt or tricked! 

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV and ITVX.
