Emmerdale viewers have issued rare praise following tonight's "sensational" episode.
The truth about Mackenzie Boyd's secret son is finally out and the fallout has been rocking the village as wife Charity Dingle struggles to grapple with the enormity of his betrayal. Mackenzie, who cheated on her with Chloe Harris after the couple had a row about growing their family, appeared content to keep on lying.
Chloe then realised she was pregnant and despite Mack's insistence, decided to keep the baby. Having given birth to son Reuben a few weeks ago, the new mum was left absolutely devastated when Reuben contracted bacterial meningitis.
