When the latest episode of Emmerdale aired, Jacob was feeling overwhelmed and panicked. However, things seemed to be going well between him and Sarah Sugden as they spent time together during the festive season. But as 2025 began, Jacob's new placement at A&E meant he was able to make new friends outside of the village, which left Sarah feeling a little left out. She opened up to Jacob about her feelings and thankfully, they were able to clear the air.
Later on, as Sarah was saying goodbye to Jacob after spending the night together, they were interrupted by Leyla Harding. Leyla told Jacob that she wouldn't interfere, but suggested they have a conversation about Sarah's health. Despite Leyla's intentions, it seemed like she was still interfering in their relationship.
Sarah has been living with the rare, inherited bone marrow failure syndrome, fanconi anemia, since she was a child. This condition puts her at a higher risk for cancer, and it has been a part of her life for as long as she can remember. But outside in the village, Jacob approached Sarah and expressed his concerns about their relationship. He didn't want to lose her like his previous girlfriend, Leanna, who was tragically murdered by Meena Jutla.
As the episode progressed, Sarah was left feeling heartbroken and frustrated. She has always expressed that she doesn't want to be treated differently because of her diagnosis, and it seems like everyone around her is trying to make decisions for her. Both Leyla and Charity Dingle stuck their noses in, thinking they were acting out of care for the young couple, but they were reminded that Jacob and Sarah are old enough to take control of their own lives.
So, will Jacob and Sarah continue to see each other? Only time will tell. But one thing is for sure, their relationship is facing challenges that they must overcome together.
