Marlon is consumed with regret in Emmerdale spoilers

Dylan’s presence in the village has really rattled Marlon’s cage. Fearing the troubled kid would be a bad influence on April, Marlon planted ketamine in Dylan’s pocket to make it look as if he’d nicked it from the vets. April believed Dylan was guilty and turned her back on him.

But Marlon’s actions had near-fatal consequences after Dylan then suffered an overdose. He was rushed to hospital where doctors declared his condition to be critical.

Marlon was devastated by the damage he’d caused and came clean to wife Rhona. She convinced him not to tell April, insisting it would make things even worse.

However the guilt proves too much for Marlon as he decides to tell Dylan the truth.
