If the controversy surrounding Ross or Mackenzie has kept the Emmerdale audience up at night, the “twin” theory has made the fan community even more excited.

Many believe that the writers will not stop at a simple twist, but will choose the boldest direction: Charity may be pregnant with twins, with two fetuses that are not homozygous.

This means that one baby may be the result of an embryo implanted for Sarah and Jacob, while the other baby belongs to a personal relationship between Charity – Ross or Mackenzie.

A complicated and dramatic scenario

If this theory comes true, everything will be beyond imagination. Two children are born at the same time, but only one is actually the “child” of Sarah – Jacob. The other will have Barton or Boyd blood, depending on the identity of the real father. This is the knot that will push all the characters into a battle not only emotionally but also legally, because child custody and blood ties are never easy.

Sarah may fall into a state of extreme confusion: she has been waiting for the moment to become a mother, but when the truth is revealed, will she accept to raise both children? Or just keep the child with her blood, abandoning the other? Meanwhile, Jacob – who always supports Sarah – will certainly be caught up in a whirlwind of emotions, forced to choose between love and harsh reality.

Charity and the tragedy of becoming a mother “twice” in one birth

As for Charity, the situation is even more awkward. She originally only agreed to be a surrogate mother with the purpose of helping her niece fulfill her wish, but now, she has to face the scenario of becoming the mother of two children. One belongs to Sarah, the other belongs to her own family. Maternal love in this situation will become a deep cut: will Charity be strong enough to give away her biological child, while keeping another child?

The audience is familiar with the image of Charity with many tricks and schemes, but in this situation, even a thorny woman like her will find it difficult to stay calm. And Charity’s inner torment will be fertile ground for the screenwriter to exploit, creating climaxes that are both painful and humane.

Mackenzie, Ross and the battle for identity

If the twin hypothesis becomes a reality, Ross and Mackenzie certainly cannot stand aside. Mackenzie, who longs to be a father, will be extremely happy to know that he has a biological child. But ironically, he has to witness the risk of that child being “given away” to keep his promise to Sarah. Meanwhile, Ross, if discovered to be the father, will have to bear the involuntary responsibility – something he has never prepared for.

Two men with two different personalities, now face a common challenge: who will have the final say in the children’s future? The story is sure to explode into a battle of identities, where love, ambition and responsibility intertwine to form a dramatic maze.
