It’s fair to say that the Dales have seen their fair share of couples get together and split up over the years…
Some couples have stood the test of time whilst others have fallen at the first hurdle.
Here’s four pairings we’d love to see get together in Emmerdale village!
Emmerdale romances: 1. Belle and Vinny
Belle and Vinny have always been close. They’ve been there for each other (as friends) through thick and thin.
Vinny’s currently supporting Belle as she struggles to come to terms with Tom’s abuse of her. Despite Tom causing trouble for their friendship in the past, this pair will always return to each other’s side in the end.
Let’s be honest, Vinny and Gabby really don’t make for a perfect match. Gabby isn’t known for her compassion after all…
But, Vinny and Belle? They already have a great bond going. So, here’s to hoping they develop a romantic connection in the near future. Maybe, let’s just give Belle some time to breathe before jumping into another relationship though.
2. Manpreet and Liam
Liam’s had flings and relationships with a fair few women in the village, but he’s yet to cross that boundary with colleague and friend, Manpreet.
Manpreet and Liam actually have a lot in common (with serial killer Meena unfortunately being a topic they both know all too well.)
Perhaps Liam might find it a little icky to start dating the sister of his daughter’s killer. But, if he just puts that factor (okay, very big factor) aside for a moment, he could well find that his good friendship with Manpreet could turn into something more! And, we’d totally ship them!
Emmerdale romances: 3. Mack and Aaron
Aaron’s currently having a fling with John Sugden (yes, the half-brother of Robert Sugden – awks!)
But, it’s no secret that Mack’s been feeling jealous over John getting in the way of his bromance with Aaron.
Mack’s childish feud with John could all be explained though… you know, as jealousy? Perhaps, Mack only has a vendetta against John because he wants Aaron all to himself.
If Mack was to suddenly confess his secret feelings for Aaron, we’d be all for it!
4. Charity and Vanessa
As we’re shipping Mack and Aaron together, that means that Mack will have to ditch Charity…
So, shall we just all rewind back to the 2019 era when we were all at peak Vanity era? Life was rather sweet back then before Charity and Vanessa split in 2020 (we’re still not over it, can you tell?)
Vanessa and Charity had way more chemistry than Mack and Charity. Vanessa actually cared about Charity whereas Mack only really proves to prioritise himself over his marriage time and time again. We certainly wouldn’t be opposed to a Vanity reunion!
