Next week on Emmerdale, Manpreet Sharma and Charles Anderson’s relationship faces serious strain as Charles continues to grapple with the tragic loss of his son, Ethan. Manpreet finds solace in an unlikely confidant, Ruby Fox Milligan, confiding in her about her struggles with Charles. Unaware that Ruby was the mystery hit-and-run driver who injured Ethan before his death, Manpreet opens up to her.

When Ruby visits the church, Charles is surprised to see her. Tentatively, Ruby reaches out for Charles’s hand, offering her support, which he accepts. As Ethan’s funeral approaches, Charles feels immense pressure to honor his son’s memory, struggling through the emotional day. At the wake in the Woolpack, Charles turns to alcohol for comfort, leading to tension between him and Manpreet.

Manpreet is hurt by Charles’s behavior, especially when he drunkenly orders her to leave. With their issues escalating, the question remains: can they overcome this hurdle in their relationship?

Kevin Mathurin, who portrays Charles, recently spoke about saying goodbye to his co-star, Emile John, who portrayed Ethan.

As they bid farewell to Ethan’s character, aired on Thursday, June 13th, they reminisce about the memorable moments they shared, acknowledging Emile’s talent and wishing him the best in his future endeavors.
