Emmerdale’s Chas and Paddy face further heartbreak after baby Grace’s death

More devastation ahead for the heartbroken pair...

Chas Dingle and Paddy Kirk have already been through more than any couple should have to endure in a lifetime, but it’s not over yet for the soap faves.

Emmerdale viewers have watched in bits as the pair were told their unborn baby would not survive long after childbirth due to the rare condition bilateral renal agenesis.

Scenes earlier this month saw Chas give birth, and then say goodbye to newborn daughter Grace.

Viewers have also seen Chas describe their relationship as “cursed” for all the bad luck they’ve experienced.

In upcoming scenes, the pair become more and more estranged and distant from one another.

Paddy has been bottling his own grief up in a bid to protect Chas, but could he be heading for an emotional breakdown?

In a recent interview, Dominic Brunt – who plays Paddy – said: “Chas and Paddy are set to struggle in their own ways for a while.”
