Forget Charity, could Mack and Aaron be the soap’s hottest new couple?

Viewers of Emmerdale will be well aware that Mack is married to Charity,

although he actually spends very little time with his wife it seems.

Yes, Mack actually sees more of his bestie Aaron and his new enemy

John Sugden. Poor Charity hardly gets a look in. But, why does Mack feel the need to be around Aaron 24/7? Are they really just best mates? Or, is a certain someone jealous of John?

Mack and Aaron: The biggest bromance is the Dales

So, we’re not entirely sure how Aaron stands to be around Mack as often as he does but the guy must have an extremely high tolerance to annoying mechanics, we guess.

Nevertheless, everyone knows that Mack and Aaron are inseparable. Even Charity’s had the pleasure of making some jokey comments about Mack’s bromance.

But, is a bromance all it is? Currently, Mack’s world is revolving around John Sugden. Starting up a feud with him, Mack was loving teaming up with Aaron to scheme against Victoria’s half-brother.

Mack had the biggest smile on his face as he and Aaron ended up driving John’s van into a lake. And, Mack was kind of hoping that Aaron would be on his side when bull-gate happened.

Instead of confronting John about Mack’s accident though, Aaron ended up giving into temptation in a passionate moment with John.

Of course, when Mack found out about this he was livid and had a right go at Aaron for failing to have his back. When Aaron later informed Mack that he and John weren’t a thing, Mack couldn’t hide his joy (if only he knew that John was hiding in the flat ready to get it on with his best friend just moments later!) But, do Mack’s concerns over John only come from a place of friendship?

John jealousy for Mack?

With Aaron sneaking off to spend more time with John, Mack’s not going to be happy that he’s seeing less of his mate, is he?

This feud with John seems a bit pointless now considering that Mack was only ever getting revenge on John for Aaron in the first place. But, with Aaron making amends with John now, what reason does Mack have to keep the vendetta going?

Well, could it be because Mack’s jealous of John? Does he actually have romantic feelings for his friend and is desperate to get John out of the picture?

Mack and Aaron: The hottest new Emmerdale couple?

Whenever Mack’s with Charity in a scene, he’s always moaning about something. The person who lets him be his true, authentic and (absolutely infuriating) self just has to be Aaron.

There’s no denying that Mack and Aaron make a good team. They’re like the rhubarb to each other’s custard… And, we reckon that Mack realising that he’s also into men as well as women and starting a relationship with Aaron could just be the next best thing in soap!

Maybe this would give us a reason as to why Mack acts like a jealous teenager around John… Does he have the hots for Aaron? We hope so!
