Emmerdale fans now know Chloe Harris is pregnant after she was revealed as Mackenzie Boyd's mystery one-night stand. Many viewers of the ITV soap had predicted the village's relative newcomer was the one Mack slept with as he sulked off into town following a row with girlfriend Charity Dingle.
Prior to his infidelity, Mack tried to talk to Charity during a disastrous wellness day he mistakenly booked in a bid to relax the pair into talking about their baby heartbreak. But when Mack plucked up the courage to suggest they try for another baby following their tragic ectopic pregnancy, Charity lost it and he later sulked off into town.
But the next thing viewers knew, Mack was in bed with another woman. As he checked his phone and saw the missed calls from Charity, he smirked when the mystery lady knocked his phone out of his hand, before getting cosy under the sheets again. He later returned home and rekindled things with an apologetic Charity.
He has since been trying to silence the woman, who we now know as Chloe, as she continued to text and call him. But during Wednesday night's trip to the Dales, Mack was finally seen meeting up with Chloe to try and end their contact once and for all. He went up to the outskirts of the village to meet her and told her he was with Charity and to forget about what happened.
But Chloe appeared to be hiding something and despite wanting to tell Mack, he didn't give her the chance. Later, Chloe admitted to Kerry she slept with Mack. Kerry warned her to keep away from Charity's man but again, as she tried to talk, she was stopped by Kerry who ended up leaving. As she did, Chloe pulled a positive pregnancy test out of her bag.
And fans of the soap were quick to complain about the twist. @PSpering tweeted: "The soaps love pairing off teenagers with 25+, don't they? #emmerdale." @delucaevans shared: "Emmerdale really need to stop both their trends of having grown ass 30 year old men sleep with teenagers and their obsession with getting every female pregnant i promise women can just not have kids especially when half of them are still kids #Emmerdale."

It's f*****g gross #emmerdale." @Danielle92_xo said: "That was so predictable tonight. A lot of people have been saying it was Chloe that Mack slept with and that she’d end up pregnant… #Emmerdale
@tamica76 posted: "Why am I not shocked Mack slept with Chloe. #Emmerdale." @RyanGSoapKing11 added: "Just found out Mack's mystery woman so I was right all along it was Chloe and she's pregnant. Well that was a bit predictable at least he didn't get Amelia pregnant I suppose. #Emmerdale."
