Emmerdale 's Chloe Harris and Mackenzie Boyd are tipped for a new twist, as they get some news about their unborn baby.
The pair slept together last summer and Chloe fell pregnant with his baby, and she decided to go ahead with the pregnancy.
Mackenzie initially wasn't on board and refused to be a part of the child's life, something Chloe was okay about given he's currently engaged to Charity Dingle.
But recent months have seen them struggling to hide their one-night stand and their baby lie, with more and more people finding out the truth.
A handful of villagers know about the baby and Mack, while one only knows that Mack slept with someone else.

Charity knows nothing and, ahead of their looming wedding, she remains unaware that Mack is getting closer to Chloe.
Spoilers for next week reveal that a charged moment between the pair could see Mack torn between the two women.
Nate gets a hunch Mackenzie cares more for Chloe and the baby than he is admitting to, as Mack is still downplaying his involvement in their lives.
While he has told Chloe he will support her and the child it seems he plans to do this from a distance, avoiding telling Charity the truth.
Mackenzie wonders if Nate has got a point though, and a moment with Chloe later on leaves him more torn than ever.

Chloe drops some news about their baby, confirming that they are expecting a boy and Mackenzie is stunned.
Conflicted over his feelings, there’s a charged moment between the two as Mackenzie feels the baby kicking.
As Mack struggles, the next day he ends up in a heated row with Chloe over what he wants to do and whether he will be involved in the baby's life.
Later in the week, pal Nate is left unconvinced by Mack’s denial over being involved with his child and implores him to think about the future.
But will Mack break the news to Charity or will he keep a distance from Chloe?
