A couple of days ago in Emmerdale, Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) fell in the woods while on a walk with Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb).
Shortly after, she went to the toilet and realised she had started bleeding. This was a worrying development, as it was a sign that the embryo recently transferred into her body for Sarah Sugden’s (Katie Hill) surrogacy had potentially been lost.
Convinced that this was the case, Charity then had to discuss what to do next with Sarah. She still remained utterly desperate to become a mum, but neither of them had the cash to pay for another transfer.
This is where Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) came in. Eager to help Sarah, he handed her £2k to pay the hospital.
She was incredibly grateful, but Cain hadn’t told Moira Dingle (Natalie J Robb) about the money – which was always going to create a problem.
Moira has been up to her eyeballs in stress ever since the slurry tank leak. The disaster has seen Butlers Farm get sent multiple fines, many of which Moira has only just about managed to pay off.
Because of the latest bill, Moira has been left contemplating her future as a farmer. The money that Cain was secretly hiding would’ve been a massive help – but he caused a drama by keeping it a secret from her.
Moira found this out in tonight’s episode because Sarah innocently mentioned it to her. Cain claimed that he had taken out a loan, but Moira knew that wasn’t true.
At Butlers, Cain confirmed that he had sold some items that once belonged to his mum Faith. It turns out her hip flask was solid silver, so it was worth quite a few quid.
Faith absolutely adored Sarah and Cain knew that if she was still alive, she would’ve done anything to help her with the surrogacy. Once he had told Moira this, she sighed. Of course she understood what Cain was thinking, she just wished he would’ve told her sooner.
The couple were back on the same page by this point and then headed to the pub. There, Sarah and Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant) revealed to their entire family that Charity is pregnant with their baby.
The problem though? She might not actually be.
A flashback scene revealed in tonight’s episode allowed us to learn there is a very real possibility Charity is pregnant with Ross Barton’s (Michael Parr) baby again.
After Charity kissed Vanessa Woodfield (Michelle Hardwick) last week, she was thrown out of the house, with Vanessa viewing the move as self destructive.
As she stumbled through the village, Charity came across Ross, who was feeling sorry for himself after Steph Miligan’s (Georgia Jay) departure.

They kissed, and then had sex and now, Charity is pregnant.
In the present day, Charity seemed adamant that Ross isn’t connected to the baby at all but until a DNA test is conducted, there is no real way of knowing.
Will Ross go in search of definite answers?
And is there a chance Charity will lie to Sarah and Jacob, failing to tell them that the baby she is growing has come about as a result of even more betrayal?
