Emmerdale may have quietly dropped a massive clue about how Charity’s baby secret is finally going to come out in tonight’s episode (Thursday December 18). And it all centres around a moment that should have been reassuring – but clearly wasn’t.
After attending her 20-week scan with Sarah and Jacob, Charity should have been breathing a sigh of relief. Instead, she was visibly unsettled. And with so much emphasis placed on testing and genetics, has the show just signposted how the truth will explode into the open?

Charity’s dangerous baby lie in Emmerdale
Charity is still hiding the bombshell truth that she’s carrying her own baby, conceived after a one-night stand with Ross Barton. Instead, she’s pretending she’s acting as a surrogate for Sarah and Jacob – a lie that’s becoming harder to sustain by the day.
The strain is already showing. In tonight’s episode, Vanessa picked up on Charity’s nerves and started pushing for answers. Vanessa suspected the baby might actually be Charity and Mack’s, after previously being led to believe Mack was the father.
Under pressure, Charity let slip that there’s a chance the baby isn’t Sarah’s – before quickly trying to backtrack. But the damage was done. Vanessa’s suspicions were well and truly raised, and she’s not about to let this slide.
