A keen Emmerdale fan has shared a slightly left-field theory about who the 'real' father of Chloe's baby is.
The mum-to-be appeared conflicted about her exit from the village, and harbouring notions that the baby's 'dad', Mackenzie Boyd, would ask her to stay.
But an "odd" non-verbal exchange between Chloe and Paddy Kirk during her departure also didn't go unnoticed and viewers said Mackenzie's attitude towards his unborn child seemed to indicate something.

Rach wrote on Twitter: "Am I missing something between Chloe and Paddy, is he the baby's father?"
Peter asked: "Why did Chloe stare at Paddy?"
Shane went on to reply: "Think Paddy is the real father of her baby."
Owen said: "Paddy waving bye to Chloe, he should’ve said 'see you in 5 minutes' because we all know she’ll be back.
He added: "Secret aside, it’s stupid how Mack who is desperate to be a dad was happy for Chloe to go?"
