John Sugden also made a huge exit from the village a few months back, escaping justice for what he did to Aaron Dingle, when he pulled him off the cliff and blamed it on Robert Sugden.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Kev&#8217;s arrival also caused a stir for Robert when it was revealed that the pair were married &#8211; just as Aaron and his former lover decided to give it a go and reunite, thrilling fans who had waited years for the reunion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">However, it looks like Kev and John&#8217;s stories are not quite done, with eagle-eyed fans noticing a change to the ITVX <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/emmerdale\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" rel=\"follow nofollow noopener\" tabindex=\"0\">Emmerdale<\/a> banner, with bosses seemingly teasing these two characters weren&#8217;t gone for good.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/0_Screenshot-2025-12-11-173924.jpg\" alt=\"Trouble ahead on Emmerdale?\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>Trouble ahead on Emmerdale?<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The new picture shows Robert and Aaron front and centre, with greyed out pictures of Kev and John behind them.

They assume Ross because of the row over Seb, but I certainly don&#8217;t think they think it&#8217;s John. I think they think possibly it could be Kev, but not John.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Robert soon finds out who&#8217;s to blame though, with Danny teasing: &#8220;He doesn&#8217;t share it with him straight away, because I think he feels as though he can deal with this situation without adding stress to Aaron&#8217;s life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;I think Robert and Aaron are at a point together where they genuinely think it&#8217;s over.

I think they&#8217;ll be okay, but you never know. There&#8217;s always something around the corner to challenge them. There has to be a breaking day one day. I just hope it&#8217;s not any day soon.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The course of true love never does run smooth on a soap&#8230;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Like this story?
