Aaron (played by Danny Miller) and Robert (Ryan Hawley), known affectionately as Robron, married in a barn the day before Aaron was sent to prison for 12 months.
However, earlier this week spoiler guides revealed that Robert will get drunk and kiss his old flame Rebecca White (Emily Head).
The spoiler caused such an uproar that Emmerdale has taken to Twitter to reassure fans.
"RE: #Robron storyline - the course of true love never did run smooth. Stick with us, there's more to come #Emmerdale," a tweet from the official account read.

As one viewer said the damage control was "a bit late", Emmerdale responded: "@paulwh44 No, the episodes have yet to air. We want everyone to watch and then discuss #Emmerdale."
Emmerdale also tweeted: "Don't believe everything you read... context is everything."
Fans were so furious that showrunners were planning another romantic storyline between Robert and Rebecca that they threatened to boycott the show.
