Worry for Emmerdale's Paddy Kirk as new storyline teased after Chas affair

Emmerdale's Paddy Kirk continues to struggle with his breakup from cheating wife Chas Dingle.

After finding out she had an affair with Al Chapman before his accidental death, Paddy confronts her and reveals her dad had warned him about her and Al years ago. His heartbreak was made worse by the fact that Chas had treated him awfully while she was going behind his back.

In heartbreaking scenes which aired in December, he told her: "I can understand you wanting to escape after everything that's happened, but that doesn't explain why you were so horrible to me, pushing me away all the time, snapping at me for anything and everything. You loving him...did it really mean you had to hate me?"

Since then, the two have struggled to keep things amicable, with Paddy often lashing out at Chas. Others in the village have also noted his mood had worsened.

To cheer him up and get him back in the field, dad Bear Wolf set him up on a blind date during the latest episode. Paddy looked clearly uncomfortable while out at the Woolpack with the two "stunners" Bear had met while out doing deliveries.

It seems a new storyline for Paddy is building, with actor Dominic Brunt teasing it during an exclusive interview with RadioTimes.com.

He revealed: “I’ve got a story that culminates in March sometime, that’s quite interesting as well. I can’t say a single thing about it, but it’s going to be interesting.”
