Ever since father-of-one Robert (played by Ryan Hawley) discovered his beloved little sister Victoria (Isabel Hodgins) was raped on Emmerdale, the protective character has been struggling to accept his sibling’s choices.
At first, Robert was in so much shock his misguided grief translated into blaming Victoria over Lee’s terrible abuse.
Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) quickly knocked some sense into his husband and Robert took chef Victoria away from the village in the hope she could start to move on from her unimaginable trauma.
Just before the duo left however, Victoria discovered she was pregnant with Lee’s baby, and on their return, she’d decided she was going to keep it.
Victoria attempted to explain her reasons to her hot-headed brother, insisting she wanted something positive to come out of her ordeal, but sadly Robert was too angry.
After various arguments which saw Robert convinced Victoria is making a huge mistake and won’t be able to cope - he’s set to put all of his efforts in seeking revenge against the Liverpudlian rapist instead.
Viewers will see Robert and Aaron scout out Lee’s car dealership, and they pretend they want to buy a car from the salesman.
Now Isabel has hinted Robert’s rash behaviour could get him into serious trouble, and teased what’s next for the storyline.
