Next week in Emmerdale opens with a breathtaking twist: Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) secretly tests her DNA and discovers the horrifying truth.

The baby in her womb is not the embryo Sarah (Katie Hill) and Jacob (Joe Warren-Plant) hoped for, but the result of a whirlwind romance with Ross Barton (Michael Parr).

While Sarah and Jacob are extremely happy, preparing every memento for the child’s future, Charity is deeply guilty.

She doesn’t have the courage to tell the truth to Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb), who has just planned a romantic date.

When Chas (Lucy Pargeter) catches her sister in a daze, Charity confesses and begs Chas to keep it a secret.

But instead of facing it, Charity quietly schedules an abortion. The image of her collapsing in the car, tears streaming down as Sarah hands her the keepsake box and reminds her to write a letter to the baby, is the most touching moment of the week. Chas tries to stop her, saying that abortion is not the solution, but Charity cannot bear the pressure of this secret.

Will Charity have the courage to abort the baby, or will she find another way? Her choice will not only affect her life but also destroy her relationships with Sarah, Jacob and Mack. This week’s Emmerdale promises to leave many tears and fierce arguments among the audience.
