Emmerdale confirms future of Charity Dingle love triangle

Emmerdale spoilers ahead.

Charity Dingle's love triangle with Mack Boyd and ex-fiancée Vanessa Woodfield could take a dramatic turn when something goes down with her son Ryan Stocks.

It's been an odd few weeks for this threesome, as Vanessa's unexpected return to the village has added some unwelcome flavours to this romantic stew, yet producer Laura Shaw suggests there are plenty more twists on the horizon.

Speaking to Digital Spy and other media, she teased: "Vanessa is back and obviously that is going to set the cat amongst the pigeons for Mack and Charity.

"Will we see Charity and Vanessa back together in 2022, or will we see Vanessa head off in a new direction maybe? I think it's going to be time for people to decide whether they are team 'Vanity' or team 'Mackity'.

"Charity is also going to be affected by some heartbreaking news involving Ryan that is going to see some huge emotional scenes play out between mother and son," warned Shaw.

"This is going to have some influence over Charity's relationship."

Who will she choose? Either way, there'll be tears.

Meanwhile, it's set to be an eventful year for the Dingle family as a whole, as the Emmerdale producer also shared: "Two of our most loved Dingles are going to be facing huge life-changing situations that are going to have repercussions for the whole village. The effects of this are going to be long-lasting over the course of 2022 and into 2023.

"In the next few months, we'll see drama, joy, fun, laughter, agony, pain, grief and despair hit this family. They will be pulled into a lot of directions and be at the heart of our very biggest stories this year."

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
