Emmerdale 'lets slip' who Aaron ends up with in Robert scene and it's bad news for John

There could still be a chance for Emmerdale's Robron despite some drama ongoing on the ITV soap.

A scene on Monday night showed exes Robert Sugden and Aaron Dinglesat down for a rather civilised conversation, for the first time in a long time. The pair made amends after recent chaos, including Robert's attack on brother John Sugden, Aaron's husband.

It comes as scenes teased Robert could bring villain John down, amid everyone else in the village believing him to be the hero. While Robert has now claimed he will leave John and Aaron alone, a scene in the latest episode heavily hinted all was not lost as far as a Robron reunion was concerned.

As the pair bumped into each other in the shop with John also there, Robert asked Aaron to stay for a coffee to clear the air. Aaron agreed but was frosty with him, until Robert admitted he was thinking about leaving the village for good.

Admitting he needed to get his head straight and sort himself out, he told a surprised Aaron how he wondered if it was time to start again elsewhere. Despite Aaron literally telling him last week he should move on, Monday's scene proved he didn't mean it or want it.

As the pair spoke, Aaron became emotional as he listened to his ex-husband discussing his future. Clearly trying to put a stop to a sudden exit, Aaron told Robert his "roots" were in the village and never to forget that.

Robert was left thoughtful as Aaron hurried to cancel his coffee, clearly unable to stay there as he became emotional once more. His face said everything we needed to know as he turned back to Robert and took a moment, almost as if he was trying to stop himself from talking, or at least saying what he really wanted to say.

He then, after paying, said to Robert that a lot of people in the village cared about him. It was clear he was referring to himself, obvious from the way he was looking at him, before he walked out without looking back.

The moment gave Robert hope, with him clearly reconsidering things now that he knew there might be a reason to stay. But could the scenes hint that ultimately, it will be Robert who Aaron ends up with?

Killer John getting his comeuppance or not, it's so clear Aaron still cares for Robert just as much as Robert does him. Robert has made it clear he wants to reunite, while Aaron has been pushing him away, claiming he wants to be with John.

But the scene in the shop highlighted Aaron still wants him around and in the village, stopping him from going. As for the comments and the look on his face, was Aaron making it clear he's not ready to let Robert go again so soon, and could this signal a Robron reunion may finally be on the cards?
