Some Emmerdale fans are convinced that there is set to be a twist in the paternity storyline involving Mackenzie Boyd, Charity Dingle, Chloe Harris and baby Reuben.
Last week we reported eagle-eyed viewers of the ITV soap weren't buying it that Mack is the tot's father, despite his very emotional scenes as he tried to say goodbye to his 'secret son', due to the fact there's been no DNA test done.
Charity has cut contact with her husband since his confession that he'd had a one night stand with Chloe when the couple were having issues.
In last night's (Wednesday) episode, there was a conversation between Charity (played by Emma Atkins) and Nate Robinson (played by Jurell Carter) which left some soap sleuths convinced they'd uncovered who the read dad is, as writes the Mirror.
As Nate tried to comfort Charity, she hit back: "If you're looking for a deep and meaningful chat, forget about it." I just wanted to see how you're doing," Nate replied. "He was trying to spare you all of this. You two are like a jigsaw missing the final piece. You need each other."
As Charity continued to hear him out, he added: "I am not one with this soppy stuff, I have never seen a man more in love with his woman, you are his everything. Never say never, eh?"
Later in the episode, Mack tried to give Charity back her wedding ring and insisted he was not planning to give up on her - prompting fans to become convinced she will forgive Mack and arousing suspicions about Nate.
@PaulPoeUK tweeted: "It’s going to all kick off when it turns out the father of Chloe’s baby is Nate. #Emmerdale,."
@MickJohnPNEFC said: "Nate's the dad #emmerdale."
While @buncie44 said: "#Emmerdale Mack & charity will be back together you can be sure of it," and another said: "I hope Charity isn’t thinking of forgiving this cheating k*** #Emmerdale." (sic).
And @EnfieldGarry said: "Ooh Nate’s getting it now. #Emmerdale." Another fan wrote: "Charity going soft #Emmerdale." And @buncie44 said: "#Emmerdale Mack & charity will be back together you can be sure of it."
