No more affairs for these two.
As unbelievable as it sounds, Cain and Moira Dingle are still going strong on Emmerdale, with actor Jeff Hordley suggesting they’re in for the long haul.
The soap star spoke exclusively with RadioTimes.com at last night’s (June 27) TRIC Awards, hinting at his character and Moira, played by Natalie J Robb, teaming up in the face of all obstacles.
“You can still throw storylines at them, it just doesn’t have to involve an affair,” Hordley said, alluding to the two of them having to face some more difficulties that won’t necessarily jeopardise their marriage.

“It’d be nice to see them still being stable but having adversities thrown at them in other areas,” he added.
The pair have had their fair share of heartache in previous years, after all. First married in 2014, Cain and Moira became estranged in 2016 following her affair with Pete Barton (Anthony Quinlan) and Cain’s subsequent extreme measures to have his revenge on him.
The two exes reunited in 2018 after Cain’s passionate declaration of love, but things turned rough again when Moira had an affair with Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter), unaware he was her husband’s secret son. They managed to put all infidelities behind them, with their relationship growing stronger as a result.
As affairs seem to be a thing of the past for these two, they have their hands fulls elsewhere. While Cain has only just been cleared of suspicions of having pushed his half-brother Caleb Miligan (William Ash) from a ravine, Moira was recently involved in a car crash with Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler), in which Nicola’s daughter Angel (Rebecca Bakes) got injured.
