Steve took an extended break last summer amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Zak and Debbie had been living in Scotland with the cast members off-screen.
He returned to the Dales on January 18, ready to take his role as head of the family.
However, Zak's only appeared sporadically since his reintroduction to the soap.
But tonight he was back in multiple scenes as Charity Dingle's fallout from her family continued.
Emmerdale viewers were made up to see Zak again, with many taking to Twitter.
