Major Emmerdale couple facing split in ITVX release as ultimatum is issued
Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) has issued Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) an ultimatum following a major discovery in Emmerdale.
A few days ago, Charity put forward the idea of being Sarah Sugden's (Katie Hill) surrogate.
The offer was made because Charity couldn't bare the thought of Sarah not becoming a mother. The young resident has Fanconi Anemia which is expected to shorten her life, but also had a hysterectomy recently following a cancer diagnosis.
With surrogacy agencies not willing to take Sarah on because of her health problems, Charity thought this was the only option.
Charity has already started the process with Sarah and Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant), the sperm donor, but for some reason believed that keeping Mackenzie in the dark about it would be best.
This all changed tonight, when a spiteful Eric Pollard (Chris Chittell) told him.
Mackenzie returned home and confronted Charity, wondering whether she'd still feign ignorance when she's 9 months pregnant.
The argument between the two characters didn't get them anywhere, due to how stubborn they both are.
Charity was absolutely certain that carrying Sarah's baby was the right thing to do, while Mack pointed out the health risks, and suggested that Charity only wants to do this to prove she doesn't just fail children all the time.

Towards the end of the day, Charity had told Sarah that Mack will warm to the idea, but it will just take time. More Trending
Outside though, he very quickly proved that wasn't going to be the case.
Mackenzie told Charity to choose – the surrogacy, or their marriage.
But with knowledge that she's moved onto the next stage in the journey following medical tests, which path will Charity choose?

The scales fall from Lisa's eyes in Corrie as she makes discovery about Kit
Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) has had a lot on her mind recently on Coronation Street as the recent death of a colleague brought up a lot of feelings for her about her late wife, Becky. Becky was also a police officer and she was killed while chasing a suspect. She was run over and killed by a getaway car in a tragic incident that has haunted Lisa ever since as it was veiled in a certain amount of mystery. Becky had been under investigation for corruption at the time of her death, something which meant that she and Lisa had argued on the morning she died. It also meant that Becky was denied the kind of funeral that would have seen her honoured by her fellow officers. There's also the possibility that her death might not have been an accident at all, but could have been a deliberate act arising from whatever she was involved in. Lisa has never been able to get answers to her many questions concerning Becky's death as a wall of silence seems to block all her attempts to get to the truth. In upcoming episodes she's feeling the pain of her grief even more acutely because it's the eve of her and Becky's anniversary. She skips her therapy session and goes to visit Becky's grave instead. On the anniversary itself, Carla (Alison King) and Betsy (Sydney Martin) are worried about how Lisa's coping. She insists she's fine and goes off to her therapy session. Finally she allows herself to open up to the therapist and talk about her wife. She says that she's sure there was more to Becky's death than she was ever told and worries that it was something to do with the corruption investigation. Meanwhile Carla has secretly been visiting Logan Radcliffe (Harry Lowbridge) in prison, trying to find out more about what happened to Becky. He and his brother Matty (Seamus McGoff) were involved in the incident that led to Becky's death. Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers? Who's leaving Coronation Street?

After her therapy session Lisa decides to do some digging herself and she sneaks into her boss Costello (Daon Broni)'s office, searching his email to see if there's any mention of Becky. More Trending She's disturbed to see something else, though – a request on the computer asking for access to Becky's file. It's from DC Kit Green (Jacob Roberts). Lisa is puzzled about why Kit would do such a thing and why he's apparently delving into Becky's background behind her back. She tells Carla that she no longer trusts Kit and she can't work with him any more. What is Kit up to? And will Lisa ever uncover the truth about what happened to her wife?

Who is Reggie, the Lionesses' unofficial 'emotional support dog'?
England's social media accounts have released videos of the team spending time with Reggie After a nailbiting but victorious penalty shootout against Sweden, and an eleventh-hour comeback to beat Italy, the Lionesses are through to the final of Women's Euro 2025. As England gear up to face old foes Spain on Sunday, it seems one furry friend could be their secret weapon - Reggie the Cavapoo. Videos shared by England's official social media accounts have shown players spending time with the pup, and taking him for walks at training camps. But who is he - and how has he become England 's unofficial mascot? Reggie the Cavapoo belongs to the owner of Cheals on Wheels, a mobile barista bar accompanying the Lionesses on their Euros campaign in Switzerland. Posting on Instagram, the company wrote: "He's joined the Lionesses in Switzerland, soaking up all the love (and sneaky treats) from the team. "Always the star of the show wherever he goes - even on tour!" Following England's win against Italy on Tuesday, midfielder Keira Walsh spoke about how Reggie has supported the team. "We have a coffee dog that helps," she said. "I think most of the girls spend their time with him. "I don't think he realises how much he's helped us. When we won the game, he came into the meal room afterwards, and we were all so happy to see him. "So I think he's definitely been helping the most, it's fair to say." Forward Chloe Kelly also sang Reggie's praises. "He's a cute dog, and he's been at a lot of camps throughout the year," she said. But Kelly admitted she had no plans to take Reggie for a walk, fearing she'd end up missing her own dog too much. The final of UEFA Women's Euro 2025 will be shown on Sunday at 5pm on ITV1 and ITVX.

Major Emmerdale couple ‘set to reunite' as Lewis works his magic
Having just managed to turn around the fortunes of the café with his Midas touch, Emmerdale's Lewis Barton (Bradley Riches) is about to go into Cupid mode as well. There is nothing this kid can't do, from growing medicinal weed to making the villagers Shakshuka eggs, now he's about to solve his brother's love woes to boot. Lewis learns about Ross Barton (Mike Parr) failed relationship with Steph (Georgia Jay) and resolves to do something about it. Ross and Steph had an unexpected relationship that flourished for a while but quickly became doomed when she learned that she was the product of sexual abuse and that her grandfather was really her father. Something like that can really put a dampener on a fledgling relationship, and for her and Ross it was too much. Steph was distraught to learn of what happened to her mother and became fixated on her looks, claiming that every glance in a mirror she saw Anthony looking back at her. After several failed attempts at plastic surgery, Steph finally broke down and despite all his support, dumped Ross to focus on herself. She told him she couldn't be the person he needed, and she was setting him free. Steph hasn't been seen much since then, but she's back. More Trending Lewis digs into Ross' relationship and finds himself intrigued by the story with Steph. It doesn't seem to have had a proper ending; it was more like bad timing.
