Emmerdale spoilers<\/a> follow.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rejoice, Emmerdale fans! Mackenzie Boyd has been freed<\/a> from John Sugden’s sick woodland bunker. For the last month, poor Mack has been held captive in an underground cellar, but during Thursday’s episode (18 September)<\/a>, John finally gave in and delivered him to a hospital, where Charity was able to share an emotional reunion with her man.
<\/p>\n

The married couple certainly have lots of catching up to do, although it\u2019ll no doubt take some time for Mack to return to his former self.<\/p>\n

What to Read Next<\/p>\n

“He’s very relieved to be back home,” Lawrence Robb explains to Inside Soap<\/a> as we chat about the difficult future in store for his character. “He\u2019s relieved to have been saved. <\/p>\n

“He’s in a lot of pain and probably suffering from a bit of PTSD from the entire thing. But I think he’s looking forward to rebuilding what he had with Charity and his family beforehand.” <\/p>\n

Little does Mack know, though, that Charity is currently in turmoil over the paternity of the baby she is carrying<\/a> for Sarah and Jacob.<\/p>\n

Having slept with Ross<\/a> behind her husband\u2019s back, Charity has no idea whether the little one will take after her ex or Jacob \u2013 and given Mack\u2019s rivalry with Ross, we dread to think how Mack would react if he found out the truth!
<\/p>\n

“Mack doesn’t necessarily have a leg to stand on, because he did do a very similar thing with Chloe<\/a> a couple of years ago,” admits Lawrence. “I think because it’s Ross it probably is more poignant for him because he doesn’t like him at all. <\/p>\n

“Ross nearly killed him three, four months ago, so they’ve never really seen eye-to-eye and a lot of that is because of Moses and the dynamic that holds. It would very, very difficult for him to get over it\u2026”

But for now, Mack\u2019s focus will no doubt be recovering from the unimaginable trauma that the evil John inflicted on him.<\/p>\n

“He’ll have both emotional and physical scars,” reveals Lawrence. “He was in the bunker for a fair amount of time!”<\/p>\n
