Emmerdale fans are convinced they have worked out a major twist’ in the ITV village after Gus Malcoms attempts to call a truce with Rhona Goskirk.
Loyal ITV viewers will recall that last year, the doting mum found out her ex-husband Gus Malcoms and his partner Lucy were expecting a baby together. The veterinary nurse was initially over the moon for the couple after learning that they were having fertility issues and could not conceive a child.
Years earlier, Rhona and Gus had IVF treatment which led to them freezing some embryos. But when they split up, Rhona assumed they were destroyed.
However, Gus stopped this from happening, before he asked if he and Lucy could use them after they got together. Despite the fact that Rhona said no, Gus forged her signature and Lucy fell pregnant with his and Rhona’s embryo.
Tragically, Lucy died while giving birth to baby Ivy, leaving her partner utterly heartbroken. Meanwhile, Rhona was still reeling after learning that the baby was biologically hers and no longer had a mother.
As Gus dealt with his guilty, Rhona and her family started out by taking care of the tot. But things soon took a turn for the worse when Rhona admitted that she had grown attached and wanted to be a part of her life.
