Emmerdale airs sad update for former flames Charity and Vanessa
No reunion any time soon.
Emmerdale has aired a sad update over exes Vanessa Woodfield (Michelle Hardwick) and Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins), and it looks like the pair won't be reuniting any time soon.
Vanessa made her return to screens last week, when best friend Rhona Goskirk (Zoë Henry) called her for help after kidnapping biological baby daughter Ivy.
While Rhona was arrested and later charged at the police station, Vanessa caught up with sister Tracy Robinson (Amy Walsh). At the shop, Charity walked in with husband Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) and her young son Moses.
Moses was thrilled to see Vanessa and her son Johnny, who Charity adopted when she was engaged to Vanessa a few years previously. Mack offered to take the boys to the park, and Vanessa and Charity had a quick catch-up over recent events.
Vanessa revealed that Tracy had also filled her in on what happened at Christmas, when Charity accidentally killed villain Harry (Robert Beck) and saved Mack's life. Charity has been suffering with PTSD ever since, and after Charity left, Vanessa remarked to Tracy that Charity clearly wasn't herself.

Alone with Mack, Charity noticed he seemed a bit put out over her friendliness with her former fiancée. She told Mack that there were "no lingering feelings" there for Vanessa, but she was glad that they could still get on well.
Charity and Vanessa's strong relationship was, and still is, adored by Emmerdale viewers, who dub them 'Vanity'. Their romance reached an abrupt end in 2020, when Charity kissed Mack just as Vanessa was battling bowel cancer.
Now it seems there's little chance that the characters will ever get back together, although this is soapland – so never say never!
