Nell overheard the pair talking openly about their fling, but has kept it to herself, so far.
And it looks like someone else discovers their secret next week, when Sarah Sugden spots them having a smooch – will she reveal all?
It all starts when Priya is feeling sorry for herself as Pete and Leyla’s wedding plans gather steam.
Priya has a bit much to drink at the Home Farm zombie event and Nell contacts Pete, worried that Priya is on the verge of blabbing herself!
Pete, who is visiting a wedding venue with Leyla, rushes back to confront an emotional Priya. He tries to comfort her, saying she’ll find someone else.
But Priya misreads the signals and tries to kiss him – unaware that Sarah has seen the whole thing. Will they be able to stop her telling Leyla?
Pete recently called off their fling after Leyla proposed to him and Priya’s pregnancy scare left him shaken. But Priya is hurt to be have cast aside so easily.
It’s this hurt that causes her to hit the bottle and force Nell to call Pete, hoping he can talk some sense into her before she lets the whole village know what’s been going on.
Pete leaves Leyla at the potential wedding venue, telling her that his Auntie Moira (who he also had a fling with) needs him.
He tries to comfort a very upset Priya, but whether or not he responds when she goes in for a kiss remains to be seen.
Whatever happens, it looks like the fallout of the affair is going to be HUGE for Priya as, Fiona Wade who plays the lovelorn single mum, has just signed a shiny new contract.
Speaking to the Daily Star Sunday, Fiona, who joined the soap in 2011, revealed how much she loves being on the show.

“Emmerdale is incredible right now and it’s a really exciting time to be in the show.
“I’ve just signed a new contract and couldn’t be happier. I’ve been so lucky and can’t believe it’s been almost six years since I first arrived in the village.
“It’s fantastic.”
As Leyla pushes ahead with her plans to marry Pete, we’re envisaging a showdown at the wedding between the bride and her bridesmaid over the groom.
Could what Sarah sees be the catalyst for it all coming out?
