Charity was about to get the shock of her life in the upcoming week in Emmerdale. The beloved resident of the village has been going through a rough time, as she mourns the loss of her beloved uncle, Zak Dingle. His passing earlier this month has left a void in the hearts of the Dingle family, who have all come together to honor him with a heartfelt funeral service. Amidst the grieving, they were surprised by the unexpected return of Zak's daughter, Tina Dingle, who had not been seen in the village for almost 30 years.
Just when Charity thought she had seen the last of the familiar faces, she is in for another surprise as another old face makes their way back into the village. The identity of this mystery character has not been revealed by the Emmerdale bosses yet, leaving fans to speculate about who it could be. Some are wondering if it could be Ross Barton, who was confirmed to be making a comeback in a video posted by the Emmerdale X account back in September. In the video, Bradley Johnson, who plays Vinny Dingle, could be seen searching for a returning cast member around the Emmerdale building.
For those who may not remember, Ross Barton had a complicated history with Charity, which included an affair with her daughter Debbie Dingle, who was engaged to his brother Pete Barton at the time. This led to the reveal that Ross was the father of Charity's son, Moses Dingle, in a 'whodunnit?' storyline back in 2015. With Charity now married to Mackenzie Boyd, could her newfound happiness be in jeopardy with Ross' return?
After a five-year absence, Ross was last seen in Emmerdale in 2018 when he left the village with Rebecca White for a fresh start in Liverpool. It is possible that his return is also connected to his aunt Moira Dingle's recent health storyline, as she was diagnosed with a meningioma, a type of brain tumor. Actress Natalie J Robb, who plays Moira, has teased that Ross' comeback will be explosive and cause some trouble, jokingly referencing the fact that Moira had killed his mother.
With all the excitement surrounding Ross' return, fans can tune in to Emmerdale weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1 and from 7am on ITVX to see how it all unfolds.
