EMMERDALE UPDATE: Emmerdale Mack’s new romance ‘SEALED’ after Charity and it’s someone UNEXPECTED

Emmerdale viewers believe they’ve figured out who Mackenzie Boyd, played by Lawrence Robb, will next be romantically involved with – and it’s an unexpected character.

Mack has been a mainstay in the ITV soap since 2020, playing a role in numerous significant storylines.

Currently, his wife Charity Dingle, portrayed by Emma Atkins, has recently proposed to act as a surrogate for her granddaughter Sarah Sugden, played by Katie Hill.

As viewers will remember, Sarah has been eager to have a child due to her life-threatening condition of Fanconi anaemia.

However, following a cancer diagnosis and subsequent hysterectomy, Sarah is unable to bear children, leaving her heartbroken. In response, Charity suggested she could carry Sarah’s child, reports the Daily Star.

Charity’s proposal was initially kept from Mack, but he discovered the truth from village gossip Eric Pollard, played by Chris Chittell.

The revelation led to a heated argument between the couple, with Mack predicting disaster. Since then, Mack’s best mate Aaron Dingle, played by Danny Miller, has encouraged him to express his true feelings about the situation to Charity.

In Tuesday’s episode (July 29), Charity, overwhelmed by Sarah’s excessive care, insisted on some time alone, providing Mack with an opportunity to speak to her privately. However, once again, he refrained from revealing his true emotions.

Now, as a potential break up looms for Mack and Charity, fans have already ‘sussed out’ his next romantic interest.

“I actually feel sorry for Mack he deserves better than Charity,” one viewer expressed on an Emmerdale Facebook fan page. Another fan proposed Aaron Dingle: “I’ve always said Mack and Aaron should become an item.”

A third agreed: “Yes! Definitely.” Echoing their sentiments another penned: “Same here, it could happen.”
