Emmerdale spoilers: Rhona Goskirk addicted to painkillers after shock Pete Barton split?
EMMERDALE fans were left horrified last week when Rhona Goskirk was rushed to hospital after a shocking tractor crash. Things are set to go from bad to worse for the vet as she turns to painkillers as her relationship with Pete Barton comes under strain.
Emmerdale: Rhona tells Pete that she doesn't want more kids
Last week on Emmerdale, Rhona (played by Zoe Henry) was rushed to hospital when she was in a tractor accident caused by her boyfriend Pete (Anthony Quinlan).
The vet was told she may have to have a hysterectomy to remove fibroids in her womb, which left her horrified.
It came just as Pete said he wanted to have a family with her as there are different methods of having a child.
But his suggestion horrified Rhona, who made it very clear she doesn’t want to have another baby.
Rhona and Pete will come to loggerheads in upcoming episodes which will leave the vet struggling to cope.
As Pete makes the decision to move out, Rhona will reach for a packet of painkillers hinting she will become hooked on them once again.
Teasing the storyline, a source told the Daily Star: “Rhona’s problems start to mount up and she looks for a way out.”
It won’t be the first time Rhona has become dependent on painkillers as in 2013 she was hooked on the medication for a painful back injury before relapsing in 2017.
Will Pete realise before it’s too late and be able to step in and help Rhona or is this really the end of the road for the couple?
Elsewhere on Emmerdale, it has been hinted Rebecca White (Emily Head) could be about to make a surprise return.
In coming episodes, Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley) and Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) will look into having a child via surrogate.
The pair are desperate to start a family together and fans think Rebecca will return to assist them.
When the soap asked fans on Twitter what storyline they would like to see “Robron” involved in, many suggested Rebecca’s return.
“Twins girls, Seb coming home where he belongs, and a family dog,” one fan stated.
Another added: “I hope Seb will be back for good. And I am looking forward to the surrogacy SL.”
Others begged for Robert’s son with Rebecca, Seb, to come back to the Dales.
His return would no doubt include his mother returning too - could she offer to help with their surrogacy so Seb could have a baby brother?
If Rebecca was to return it would be very soon after she fled the village alongside Ross Barton (Mike Parr) at the end of last year.
Robert and Aaron have already had a tough time recently, could they finally be granted some happiness?
Emmerdale airs tonight on ITV at 7pm.
