Emmerdale Marlon and Rhona theories – Paddy Kirk affair, Meena return and murder twist

Recently, Marlon Dingle and Rhona Goskirk celebrated their engagement on Emmerdale, and Marlon’s touching speech during the celebration brought many viewers to tears.

Since then, the couple has won over many fans, but will problems arise as they get ready to disclose their future nuptials?

Fans of Emmerdale appear to agree, with many speculating that the couple’s wedding may not have a happy ending or even take place at all.

The Daily Star looks more closely at Marlon and Rhona fan ideas, including those involving shocking infidelity, the sudden reappearance of a Dale’s villain, and the couple’s impending “rocky road.”

Happily ever after

Rhona Goskirk and Marlon Dingle have spent a lot of time together over the years as their relationship has developed.

Fans were moved to tears as Marlon gave a touching speech at their engagement party in Thursday’s episode. Rhona is presently assisting Marlon in recovering after he had a stroke earlier this year (July 21, 2022).

Fans are praying for a good conclusion for the couple as they enter their nuptials because they have experienced both happy and sad times together.

Una said: “I’m still in shock about the Marlon and Rhona scene. Such a lovely bond developed over many years.”

Best scene from Rhona and Marlon in ages, a second person said, while a third person said, “About time some happiness for Marlon and Rhona.”

Others, meanwhile, do not believe that Marlon and Rhona’s wedding day will result in bliss for the couple. On social media, viewers have been speculating about various scenarios for the couple’s future, including affairs and shocking comebacks.

Paddy Kirk affair

Rhona and colleague vet Paddy Kirk had a relationship before she started dating Marlon.

The couple remained friends even after they made the decision to part ways, but will that friendship endure?

In the months leading up to her and Marlon’s wedding, Rhona has become closer to Paddy, leading some fans to wonder if their previous romantic chemistry may have returned.

Viewers appear to understand the chemistry, with one stating: “With whom did Rhona initially start? Can’t decide if it was Paddy or Marlon.”

Added by a second “Paddy and Rhona had an affair. Rhona is married to Paddy.”

Could Rhona wed a different person on the wedding day? Time will only tell.

Wedding day drama

Things might not go smoothly on the big day if Marlon and Rhona make it down the aisle, as Marlon actor Mark Charnock hinted of a difficult road ahead for the couple.

In an interview with Radio Times at the British Soap Awards 2022, Mark hinted at potential wedding day drama, saying: “We shall see. It’s a truly difficult circumstance, and it seems like there are many difficulties in their way on this route.

So, it remains to be seen.

Another point of agreement among viewers is that things might not always go as planned. Fans have expressed frustration at the couple’s frequent proposals.

Fans have expressed concern about whether the wedding will proceed, with one asking: “So is it back on?”

Another person said: “Postponing? A third said: “So I guess we’re going to go another round of who will ask who to get married again when it comes to Marlon and Rhona. Their wedding is like a switch.”

Not only that, but other viewers speculate that Marlon would not get the chance to change if Rhona’s mother Mary is involved.

One fan remarked, “Rhona’s mother was going to kill Marlon,” and another commented, “I get the feeling Mary is going to start picking on Marlon.”

Possible Meena return

Meena Jutla caused havoc in the Dale over the past year after killing three residents and receiving a prison sentence.

Fans theorized at the time that Meena might escape in time to resume her reign of terror for Emmerdale’s 50th anniversary later this year, which might coincide with Marlon and Rhona’s nuptials.

The forthcoming nuptials appear to be the focus of the 50th anniversary celebrations in October given that the wedding may take place later this year.

One fan asked earlier this year at Meena’s sentencing: “Is her escape the plan for #Emmerdale50?” It seems as though the two events could overlap if Marlon and Rhona’s wedding is included in the 50th anniversary celebrations.

“Please don’t say she will pop up in October during the anniversary week by possibly escaping prison,” the second person urged.

Will Marlon and Rhona’s wedding be taking place at the same time as her escape, though, if she does? If so, will both of them be targets? The waiting game will begin for viewers.
