Emmerdale fans “crashed out” as they noticed some pictures in Robert Sugden’s bedroom as Aaron Dingle ran to his side.
During Monday’s (August 18) instalment of Emmerdale, Robert and Aaron finally gave into temptation, much to the delight of “Robron” fans.
As Robert hit rock bottom after John Sugden continued to taunt him by telling his half-brother that he’s hated by both Aaron and Victoria, Robert tore apart his own bedroom out of despair.
Aaron heard the commotion from outside and rushed to be by his ex-husband’s side. He then told Robert that he’s been pushing him away out of fear of him getting too close.
The pair then shared a passionate kiss before spending the night together, but will their secret stay safe from the villainous John?
During the moving scenes, eagle-eyed viewers pointed out that Robert had a box of pictures of him with his son Seb White, and a few with Aaron posing alongside them.

Robert fathered Sebastian after a one-night stand wit Rebecca White as he cheated on Aaron. Rebecca gave birth in 2017, but Robert struggled to adjust to being a father.
After snatching Seb to stop him from moving away to Australia, Robert was chased by Rebecca who got hit by a lorry and suffered brain damage as a result.
When realising she was struggling to care for her son with the injury, she gave Aaron and Robert a chance to look after him instead. As she entered a relationship with Ross Barton, he became another father figure to Seb, and they eventually moved away to Liverpool in 2018.
However, Seb returned to the village a few times to see Aaron, but Rebecca put a stop to this as he kept asking questions about where Robert could be.
When Ross returned to the village alone last year, he revealed that Rebecca had sadly died and Seb was living with her aunt in Bristol.
Although fans have been hoping that Seb will return to the village, there’s been no confirmation from the ITV soap.
