Elsewhere, Belle tried to get Vanessa to change Tracy's mind over the funeral, and Billy found new living arrangements.<\/p>\n<p>Here's everything else that happened on Emmerdale tonight.<\/p>\n<h2>Jacob made Sarah an offer<\/h2>\n<p>Sarah accompanied Jacob as he laid some flowers down on his mum's grave. As they chatted, she revealed how worried she was about her IVF journey. Keen to support, he offered to be her sperm donor.<\/p>\n<p>In the cafe, they hashed out the details. Jacob told her that it'd be on her terms; with his involvement being as much or as little as she wanted. Later, as she researched the ins-and-outs, she was joined by a curious Kammy (line of the episode: \"do they send it in the post?\").<\/p>\n<p>She explained Jacob's offer, seemingly talking herself into it as she considered what a 'top bloke' Jacob is. Sarah returned to find Jacob in the cafe, apologising for not jumping at his offer straight away. Ascertaining that he really was sure - and that it'd be\u00a0<em>her\u00a0<\/em>baby, not his - a deal was struck.<\/p>\n<h2>Belle begged for Vanessa's help<\/h2>\n<p>Meeting Vanessa for a coffee, Belle shared her worries that she'd ruined everything for the Dingles. She continued to stress Cain's innocence, and plead the Dingles' case that they be allowed to attend the funeral.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Vanessa was planning the service with Charles, finding comfort and solace as she shared her memories of Nate. Returning home, Vanessa attempted to sound out letting the Dingles attend - but aborted after seeing how cheered up Tracy appeared to be after her talk with Charles.<\/p>\n<h2>Billy's new pad<\/h2>\n<p>Loved-up Dawn and Joe were on a date in the village when they spotted Billy, moving into his new pad. Hoping to build bridges, they offered to lend a hand - and some of Kim's old furniture - but he was having none of it.<\/p>\n<p>Returning from their walk, Joe was horrified to see that someone had keyed his car. He immediately suspected Billy - but was he responsible?<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/emmerdale-insider.com\/2025\/03\/05\/whos-leaving-emmerdale-2025-complete-guide-departures-returns-new-arrivals\/\">Who\u2019s leaving Emmerdale in 2025?
