Natalie J Robb: Cain brings out Moira's wild side!

Emmerdale star Natalie J Robb has revealed that her character Moira Barton's affair with Cain Dingle will bring out her wild side. The pair's fling will begin after a fiery argument leads to them kissing, and Moira finds herself unable to resist his charms. "There's a huge fight," Natalie told Inside Soap magazine. "But Moira kisses Cain!" "Sometimes in life you have that chemistry with someone for no reason and you struggle with it. It's worth watching - a lot of ladies are going to like it!" "It's not a one-off," Natalie said of their kiss. "Moira doesn't want to go back to him, and she fights it when she does. It's quite an abusive relationship, actually - but Cain brings out a different side to her. However Natalie admitted she was worried that the character - who is under pressure as she fights to keep her family going and her farm afloat - could lose everything. "She'll be battling her demons. Moira is quite weak right now, but the way that Cain treats her is going to make her realise what she has with John," she said. "Moira feels dirty and guilty. This is the biggest betrayal ever - and it's Cain! It's going to be explosive."
