Oliver Farnworth’s portrayal of Emmerdale’s John Sugden has been keeping secrets from his fiance Aaron Dingle, which could sabotage their wedding day on the ITV soap opera.
John Sugden’s secrets threaten to ruin his wedding to Aaron Dingle on Emmerdale, it’s been revealed. The couple are preparing to exchange vows but a producer has teased that things might not go to plan for them on the soap opera.
John (played by Oliver Farnworth) and Aaron (Danny Miller) have been planning their nuptials since getting engaged in March. There’s speculation that the occasion could bring former residents back to the village, including after some fans noticed an initial guest list in an episode last month.
Emmerdale producer Laura Shaw spoke to the Mirror and other outlets recently about the upcoming wedding, teasing that there could be drama. It came during a discussion about what’s to come on the ITV show over the summer.
It has been revealed that John’s secrets will weigh on him in the lead up to the event. Viewers have already discovered that he was responsible for the death of Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) and, in orchestrated situations, appears to have harmed others so that he can be their ‘saviour’ too.
And there’s suspicion that he may have contributed to his ex-fiancé Aidan Moore now being in a coma. He’s also part of the cover-up following the apparent death of Anthony Fox (Nicholas Day) and has refused to tell the others who are involved where the body is supposedly buried.
Laura recently mentioned the character’s future when she said, “There’s a wedding coming up, and that is Aaron and John.” The producer continued, “Those episodes are very brilliant and very exciting, and I just signed them off.”
She said, “John worries about what secrets might come out of the wedding, especially as it approaches.” The wedding takes place in one day, spread over the course of a full week. Some of John’s nightmares are stylistically entertaining.
We see potential events that might occur, Laura said. Before making a hint that Nate’s body might present a challenge for John, she teased Aidan’s former partner and suggested that he might recover from his coma before the wedding.
She stated, “Aidan is also in a coma, and I can tell you that he won’t be there forever.” Will he then awaken? What secrets, if any, can he return with? Will he enter the wedding and ruin it?”
Laura continued, “We know Nate’s body is still in that lake, but I can tell you again that he won’t stay there ever.” Will John honor his vows when he learns that the lake is being dredged and that he is aware that the body will rise? Will he be detained, or not?
What steps will John be made to prevent that happening when Nate and Aidan both threaten to ruin the day for John and put everything in danger with Aaron?
Emmerdale airs on ITV, ITVX, STV, and STV Player starting at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow.
