If Coronation Street had its tangled love affairs, Emmerdale is breaking all dramatic boundaries by drawing Kev, Robert, and Aaron into a passionate and dangerous love triangle.

Before being kidnapped by John, Kev had gotten back together with Robert, causing Aaron – who still harbored feelings for Robert – to become intensely jealous.

Kev publicly kissed Robert in the Woolpack pub, shouting, “He’s mine!” The scene stunned the entire village.

The very next day, Aaron left, leaving Robert caught between two choices: his former lover or the haunting past?

But then, tragedy struck when John Sugden attacked and kidnapped Kev. Both Robert and Aaron rushed to find him, but the bloodstains left on the road behind Hotten’s house revealed: they had not only lost their loved ones, but had also entered the insane game of a killer.

Conflict, love, hatred, jealousy – all compressed into a few episodes, leading fans to say they were “watching both a romance and a crime drama.” John’s arrival puts Robert and Aaron’s relationship on the brink: if Kev is saved, they will lose each other; if not, both could lose their lives.

A tragic love story, typical of Emmerdale: sweet, toxic, and utterly haunting.
