Emmerdale Spoilers recall that even though Aaron Dingle and John Sugden were off to a rocky start, their relationship is now blossoming. Both men have very contrasting approaches towards life and share very different views when it comes to love and romance. However, with time, they have started to understand each other better, and have managed to embrace the differences.
In the December 16, 2024, episode, John surprised Aaron by arranging a camping trip for them. Aaron felt really touched by this romantic gesture and started looking forward to bonding with his lover. That being said, Aaron did have some trouble wrapping his head around the idea of being by the countryside in mid-December. However, John urged Aaron to trust him and give camping a shot.
Emmerdale Spoilers reveal that Aaron did want to get closer to John, and advance their relationship. Thus, he gave in and accepted John’s idea. The fact that John promised to keep him “warm” all night may have helped Aaron make the decision. At the camping trip, John and Aaron sat around a fire and indulged in some deep conversations. Aaron even apologized for his attitude earlier during the day, but John let it slide. The latter filled Aaron in on why he enjoys the outdoors so much. He shared some stories from his past.
Feeling encouraged by John’s openness, Aaron, too, opened up about his past. He told John that he wasn’t very keen on the camping trip because it brought back painful memories about his father, Gordon. Unpacking more layers, Aaron stated, “He wasn’t my dad – dad’s don’t do the things he did.” He recalled the painful memories of the abuse he suffered at his father’s hands.
John suddenly realized why Aaron didn’t want to come for the camping trip. He even offered to cut it short and return. However, Aaron assured John that he wanted to stay, as he now wanted to replace the old hurtful memories with new, beautiful ones. Even though Aaron opened up about his brutal past, John is still keeping a part of his own past a secret.
But, what is he hiding, or rather who? Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more Emmerdale Spoilers to find out more about the mysterious Aidan Moore. The man from John’s past.
