Emmerdale fans disgusted as Robert Sugden disowns sister Victoria for keeping her rapist’s baby
EMMERDALE fans were left disgusted on Tuesday night as Robert Sugden disowned his sister Victoria for keeping her rapist Lee Posner’s baby.
Viewers saw Lee and his mother confront Victoria in the village after Robron got the vile rapist sacked from his job.
Victoria runs away but they chase her and when she falls, step-mum Diane Sugden screams about her being pregnant, revealing the truth to Lee.
To get him to go away, shaken Vic tells them she’s having an abortion and Robert thinks she’s serious.
He tells her later after the pair clear off: “For what it’s worth, I think you made the right decision.”
But she’s left furious at his remark and tells him she’s having the baby regardless – and he should leave her alone if he can’t support her.
Viewers were sickened by his attitude and raced to Twitter to scold Robert.
One person wrote online: “Shut up Robert. Not your decision”
Another viewer raged: “f**k off Robert”
And one more person reasoned: “It’s really NOT about what Robert can/can’t handle is it? It’s about what’s right for Vic”
