Alongside Charity and Vanessa’s big kiss Emmerdale tonight also saw Vinny continue to struggle with his sexuality, while Steph left the village.

Vinny did some research

Vinny walked in on Paddy as he was doing a shift for the help line. Not realising that Vinny himself was struggling, Paddy spoke to Vinny about the importance to the helpline and how support and advice is always available.

With Paddy out of the house, Vinny then took to the laptop and typed in “Am I gay?” He soon found a support group which included a live chat option. Later, he was seen messaging someone from the website called Mike.

Steph packed her bags in Emmerdale tonight

After learning about Ross’s fling with Manpreet, Steph was reluctant to give him another chance. In tonight’s episode, she walked into the cafe to see the pair laughing together. Heading home, Steph told her parents she feels silly for letting her guard down with Ross.

Steph soon made a big decision and informed Ruby and Caleb that she’d booked a yoga retreat in Rome and then she was going travelling for a bit. She then shocked them that she’d be heading to Italy tonight!

Ross discovered Steph’s plans from his brother Lewis. He hurried to see her before she left. He begged Steph to stay, but she got in the taxi and headed off anyway. Viewers will know that Georgia Jay, who plays Steph, announced her pregnancy earlier this year and is heading off on maternity leave.

Ray gave Dylan some money

April and Dylan hung out, with April offering to pay for Dylan to go bowling with her and Arthur. Dylan, however, was reluctant to accept money from April.

As he read a message from Ray asking what he is doing later, Dylan told April that he is determined to get a job.

After being ignored by Dylan, Ray tracked Dylan down in the village and spotted him sharing a kiss with April. Ray used this to his advantage. As he approached Dylan, he asked him about April. He then handed Dylan a wad of cash to so he could take her out. But what will Ray want in return?
