Emmerdale’s Chas finds out the truth as Aaron’s heartbreaking cancer lie exposed
Emmerdale's Chas Dingle finds out that Aaron Dingle has been lying about the result of his gene test and he confesses to his mum that it feels like a death sentence
Emmerdale’s Aaron Dingle lie is exposed next week.
Liam Cavanagh (Johnny McPherson) desperately tries to cover the truth of Aaron’s (Danny Miller) real result in the gene test in the face of Chas Dingle’s (Lucy Pargeter) probing questions.
As Liam hurriedly exits, Chas is deeply concerned as to what he’s implied. When Chas asks Aaron a direct question about the gene test, he betrays the truth through the briefest glance. Aaron’s gone straight to anger and denial as he struggles to process his emotions now that his mum knows the truth.
Aaron makes clear to Liam that he’s crossed a line. The following day, when Chas asks a visibly injured Liam, if Aaron’s fists are to blame, Liam can’t help but acquiesce with her surmising. Liam desperately persuades Chas to stop from immediately confronting Aaron and to take a different tack and the tender moment between Liam and Chas is witnessed by his new love interest Ella Forster (Paula Lane).
Elsewhere, Ruby Milligan-Fox’s (Beth Condignly) furious to find out her carefully laid plans for a life away from the village with Caleb Milligan (Will Ash) have been undone by a single conversation with Chas. Caleb receives a warm welcome in The Woolpack, but it quickly sours when Ruby follows him in, spoiling for a fight.
A slanging match in the pub between Ruby and the Dingles takes a dark turn when Ruby accidentally elbows Chas in the chest. In the fallout from Ruby injuring Chas, Ruby’s left broken and alone after Caleb sides with the Dingles and publicly rejects her. Ruby’s inconsolable as she sits outside the pub on her own. Dawn Fletcher (Olivia Bromley) is worried for her when Caleb emerges from the Woolie, incandescent with rage. Will Ruby be able to make Caleb believe that she elbowed Chas by accident?
Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV1 and ITVX at 7.30pm
