Vinny and Gabby got hitched in Emmerdale tonight

It was touch and go as to whether Vinny would even make it to his own wedding tonight. He was at the police station having made the brave decision to report Mike for everything he’s done.

As the guests gathered at the church, Kammy was on edge as he tried to stall things for Vinny to get there. But Kammy had no idea where Vin was or why he hadn’t shown up, so it was getting tricky. Mandy knew something was off and was demanding answers as everyone started to panic.

And then Gabby arrived to find Vinny was a no-show. She was distraught and not even giving him another minute to arrive, she called the whole thing off.

But Vinny came running round the corner. He had managed to get his statement done and even had the satisfaction of seeing Mike carted in by the police.

Then he raced to the village to say his vows. He found tearful Gabby and presented her with a locket containing a picture of her dad. Vinny claimed that was what held him up and touched Gabby declared the wedding back on.

They married and then headed home to put Thomas to bed where they shared a romantic first dance alone in their living room.

It was all very touching and emotional and if you didn’t know any better you’d think they were made for each other.

Except we do know better, don’t we?

Emmerdale spoilers reveal Gabby’s big secret

When Bernice turned up on the morning of the wedding she hinted Gabby was hiding something and the big day should not go ahead.

Gabby then came close to confessing to Vinny, but instead chose to ask Vinny if he would adopt little Thomas. She told Bernice she was not calling off her wedding and Vinny was the man for her.

But it’s clear next week that her secret is still bothering Gabby. Laurel can tell there’s something wrong and asks Gabby what’s going on. Gabby confesses she cheated on Vinny before the wedding.

She explains to Laurel why she did it, but Laurel insists she needs to tell Vinny the truth. However Gabby won’t and says she won’t let a stupid mistake ruin her marriage.

Vinny’s big secret

Meanwhile, Vinny is also hiding his own rather major secret. He is summoned to testify against Mike in court after reporting him and is in a dilemma.

The reality is, he can’t speak up in court without a huge risk Gabby will find out everything. But he also can’t let Mike get away with targeting other victims.

As Gabby then breaks the news he can officially adopt Thomas, Vinny feigns excitement. But with a ticking timebomb about to go off, will he finally confess everything?

What else happened in Emmerdale tonight, Tuesday September 16

Vinny and Gabby's wedding aside, plenty more happened in Emmerdale tonight, namely Aaron Dingle starting to recover.

Victoria visited Robert

Vic visited her brother in prison who begged her to believe he is innocent. She didn't. She told him he should never have been released because he was dangerous.

Robert desperately tried to prove his side of the story. He told her he would never hurt Aaron - he cradled him when he cried over Gordon, he loves him, why would he do anything to hurt him?

Victoria was still done with him. But could she be wavering?

Aaron's condition improved in Emmerdale tonight

Chas was fearful when she saw the doctors in with Aaron, so Liam went in to find out what was going on. She saw the medics shaking their heads and knew it must be bad news.

John was with her and told her he had tried to prepare her for it. And then Victoria arrived to see Liam come out of the hospital room.

As Chas broke down, knowing the worst was coming, Liam corrected her. Aaron's finally making progress and they are bringing him out of his coma tomorrow.

John's reaction said it all

And at that point, John's reaction to the news his husband was going to be okay was so delayed, Vic realised something wasn't quite right.

It was subtle and momentary, but it took John too long to compose himself. Victoria must have seen something wasn't right, but what will she do about it?

And is John going to do what he can to ensure Aaron doesn't actually wake up? Something tells us the end is nigh for John...
