AARON Dingle has been somewhat at odds with his mother Chas for several months.
But things could change as the Emmerdale bar manager makes a huge decision about her son ahead of the New Year.
Danny Miller reprised the role of Aaron Dingle earlier this year, sending ITV viewers into a frenzy when it was revealed he’d been kept hostage in a barn by his own uncles Cain Dingle and Caleb Milligan.
But when he came back, Aaron made it clear he was no longer the same friendly villager he used to be.
Soon enough, Aaron surprisingly took his many frustrations out on those closes to him and he even lashed out against his beloved stepfather Paddy Kirk (Dominic Brunt), whom he was defending vehemently after finding out his mother Chas was having an affair.
Speaking of which – Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter) has had to deal with the majority of spiteful Aaron’s attacks and she has had enough.
In scenes due to air on our screens, and as the new year is fast approaching, the Woolpack bar manager makes a big decision about her son.
Coming up, Chas is glad to have Aaron at the Woolpack for New Year, thus trying to fix their broken bond once and for all.
But will the promise of their New Year’s resolutions be enough to bring them closer together?
Will Aaron really change for the better and finally get along with his mother?
The hunk has blamed his mother for most of his unhappiness as he has been convinced that her affair with the late Al Chapman triggered a series of events that led up to his sister Liv Flaherty’s tragic death.
As viewers of the Yorkshire-based program will recall, Chas had promised Aaron that she would stop seeing Al but it was soon clear that she’d lied.
Unfortunately, when Chas was enjoying her time with Al, a storm was ripping through the Dales, leaving Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson) and his wife Liv to take care of Chas’ daughter Eve alone.

The pair wandered out to get to the little girl but Liv never made it as she was crushed to death by a caravan on her way to Eve with Vinny.
Chas’ affair with Al eventually ended when the businessman was killed off himself shortly after Emmerdale’s 50th anniversary in 2022.
Will Aaron ever forgive her?
Can they finally put the past behind them and start 2024 with a clean slate?
Emmerdale airs weeknights from 7.30pm on ITV.
