Emmerdale star Jay Kontzle left fans heartbroken with his recent performance in the ITV soap as Billy Fletcher. During the latest episode (Thursday 28 April), Billy was left battered and bruised following a racially aggravated attack.

The adorable throwback snap of Jay and his granddad Michael was accompanied by an emotional caption that read: "Humble beginnings.
