It\u2019s official \u2013 Vinny is a Dingle by blood, as was revealed on Emmerdale last night (Monday, October 21)<\/a>. In the wake of Zak\u2019s death and subsequent funeral, the Dingle family has been rocked by the sudden return of his daughter, Tina.<\/p>

<\/div><\/div>\n

Tina\u2019s cousin Mandy was particularly shocked to see Tina back \u2013 not least because she appears to be the birth mother of her son, Vinny. Mandy raised Vinny as her own after his dad, Paul, walked out on them both while Vinny was a baby.<\/p>\n

While Vinny<\/a> wasn\u2019t a Dingle by blood, he was considered an honorary one by the whole family. But, with Tina\u2019s bombshell news, it appears that Vinny might be a born-and-bred Dingle after all!<\/p>\n

Mandy isn\u2019t the only one struggling with the news either. Viewers have found themselves upset as Vinny being a Dingle puts paid to fans\u2019 long-held hope that he and Belle might one day be a thing.<\/p>
