Emmerdale’s Marlon vows to divorce Rhona in sad scenes

Marlon struggled to forgive Rhona last month after she made a damning statement against her ex-husband Gus Malcolms in court. Gus was being sentenced for fraudulently using one of his and Rhona’s frozen embryos to start a family with his wife Lucy.

After Rhona’s actions in court, Marlon complained that she hadn’t consulted him before turning against Gus. Rhona protested that her decision wasn’t premeditated and she’d simply spoken from the heart.

Next week, Rhona starts to get fed up with Marlon’s stubborn refusal to move on from their bitter dispute.

Things get worse when local vicar Charles Anderson speaks to Rhona about whether she plans to get her baby daughter Ivy christened.

Marlon interrupts the conversation and wrongly assumes that Rhona is ploughing ahead with a christening without speaking to him first.

Rhona gently explains that Charles was the one who started the conversation, but Marlon claims that his wife always seems to have an excuse for leaving him out.
