Emmerdale's Marlon Dingle legend Mark Charnock says 'I've had a lovely run' as he shares whether Marlon and Rhona will make it

Emmerdale star Mark Charnock has said he's 'had a lovely run' as he opened up about his latest storyline which he thinks will divide viewers. As viewers of the ITV soap already know, his wife Rhona Goskirk has been visiting baby Ivy, who is technically her biological daughter.

Rhona's ex-husband Gus used the embryos frozen by him and ex-wife Rhona years ago to start a family with his now-wife Lucy, despite Rhona saying he couldn't. But during one last return to the village earlier this year, where he ended up helping Rhona's mum Mary after she was left bleeding by con woman Faye, fans spotted Gus lingered before leaving the family's home and it has since been revealed that he had stolen Rhona's passport to be able to get access to the embryos.

It was actually Marlon who was the first to discover the truth as he left his hospital appointment, where he got discharged after suffering a stroke last year. And after initially keeping quiet, he eventually told Rhona the truth that Lucy was now pregnant before she went and cofronted the couple after a failed meet-up with Gus.
