The latest Emmerdale spoilers have already revealed Aaron Dingle’s involvement in Anthony’s murder—but now, things are looking worse for Aaron as he tries to cover it up. Aaron’s actions and his traumatic past are finally taking a toll on his mental health, which has left him in a fragile state.
Aaron’s Act of Self-destruction
From the scenes of last week, we already know that Aaron beat up Anthony after getting to know about Ruby’s sexual abuse. As a survivor of childhood abuse himself, Aaron couldn’t control his emotions and took things into his own hands. Later, when he and his boyfriend, John Sudgen, returned to the action scene, they found Anthony dead.
While Aaron was clearly puzzled at this, John took charge of the whole situation—from disposing of his body to ensuring there was no trace left behind. However, while the physical evidence has been erased, Aaron’s emotional turmoil only grew stronger. In yesterday’s episode, Aaron struggled with guilt despite John’s reassurance. Even after helping John dismantle Anthony’s car at Cain’s garage, he couldn’t just digest the fact of killing someone.
Are Fan Theories True?
Aaron later appeared alone in the flat after spending some time with Ruby at The Hide. Tears were streaming down his face as he clutched onto a knife. Along with the piling guilt, his past traumas are also catching up, which might force him to take a devastating step. But even if John manages to calm him down and chuck down the secret—another eyewitness might reveal it all.
In the Tuesday episode, Manpreet Sharma already watched them stripping Anthony’s car from her bedroom window. However, Manpreet isn’t the only one who’s questioning the events around Anthony’s death now. Even longtime viewers now wonder if John Sudgen might be more connected to Anthony’s death than he’s letting on. Fans are also wondering if John might be Anthony’s “secret son” seeing his promptness in covering it up.
But we are not sure yet—is John trying to protect Aaron? Or was he making sure that Anthony was gone? If John turns out to be Anthony’s “secret son”, this changes everything and soon Aaron might fall prey to a grave danger. Only the upcoming Emmerdale spoilers can reveal the deets of what’s to happen going ahead. Until then, stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more soap updates.
