Emmerdale fans have been left questioning Marlon Dingle's situation at home. The chef recently came back to the village after suffering a stroke and spending time in hospital.
The ITV soap character, played by Mark Charnock, suffered a terrifying health scare after getting engaged to Rhona Goskirk. The pair had both planned to pop the question and after both betting the all-important 'yes', Marlon skipped back home to collect the engagement ring he had forgotten when he became unwell and collapsed.
After being rushed to hospital, it was confirmed Marlon has suffered a stroke and he had to undergo emergency surgery. Since then, as his recovery begins, the family have been rallying around. However, Charity Dingle dropped the bombshell that she couldn't afford to keep paying his full wages as they needed to be cut to statutory sick pay.
