Vaipan-Law/Digby opened the season by competing on the 2025–26 Challenger Series, placing eleventh at the 2025 CS Nebelhorn Trophy and fifth at the 2025 CS Trialeti Trophy. They rallied back with a strong free skate, however, placing fourth in that segment and moving up to sixth place overall. Vaipan-Law/Digby then went on to win silver at the 2025 Warsaw Cup. The following month, the pair competed at the 2026 European Championships in Digby's hometown of Sheffield, England, United Kingdom. They placed fifth in the short program and ninth in the free skate to finish seventh overall. "It wasn’t quite the best performance we could put out there," Digby admitted. "But overall we are proud of what we were able to do in front of that home crowd. Still such special moments that will last for a lifetime."

On February 6, Vaipan-Law and Digby competed in the 2026 Winter Olympics Figure Skating Team Event where they placed ninth in the short program. “Stepping onto the Olympic ice was a really special feeling and something we truly enjoyed,” said Vaipan-Law. “Unfortunately, today was a bit of a mixed performance for us, but that’s something we’ll take forward and work hard on over the next week.” In the individual event, they placed 13th in the short program and 15th in the free skate, to finish 15th. They closed the season at the 2026 World Figure Skating Championships in Prague, finishing 13th. In April, they announced the end of their partnership, because Digby had retired.
