Charity Dingle hits the bottle as she receives shocking news in Emmerdale
CHARITY Dingle has been surrounded by drama in recent weeks, some of which she isn’t even aware of.
However, the Emmerdale landlady gets a massive shock and turns to booze. What is she hiding?
Since her son’s return from prison, the long-standing resident played by Emma Atkins has had to jump through multiple hurdles with her partner, Mackenzie Boyd.
The couple faced heartbreak when she had to terminate an ectopic pregnancy and heavily disagreed on plans for their family.
Meanwhile, Noah decided he was ready to help Amelia Spencer raise baby Esther, proving he changed his troubled ways, and Charity is learning to be a grandmother again.
Little does she know there’s a lot more she needs to be made aware of.
In scenes due to air on ITV, Charity is in total shock when she receives news via a mysterious phone call.
Mackenzie (Lawrence Robb) jumps to conclusions and believes Charity knows all about his baby secret with Chloe Harris (Jessie Elland).
The pub landlady remains tight-lipped as she struggles to cope with the news she’s received over the phone.
She opts for an escape and drowns a sorrows with vodka, heading out to clear her head.
As she wanders around the eponymous village, she spots Caleb Milligan (Will Ash), too busy chatting on the phone to notice his car key fell to the ground.
Charity swipes it and invites Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) along for the ride.
An irritated Cain is forced to follow Charity – but it’s soon clear what’s eating away at her.

Viewers will know that the hunk had a one night stand with Chloe Harris which had a whirlwind of consequences.
In recent months, Chloe found out she was pregnant but she’s working alongside Mackenzie to help him keep his relationship with Charity afloat.
While Nate Robinson guessed that Mackenzie was the father of Chloe’s baby, Charity remains unaware – unless something has changed.
Sarah Sugden also figured out Mack was Chloe’s baby daddy but the latter did all she could to convince her otherwise, going as far as to emotionally manipulate her.
Emmerdale airs weeknights from 7.30pm on ITV.
