ITV Emmerdale’s Gus’ lies exposed as real plot against Rhona leads to action
Emmerdale spoilers for next week on the ITV soap have revealed Gus' lies are exposed to a stunned Rhona Goskirk, leading to a big decision that could lead to trouble
Emmerdale’s Rhona Goskirk unearths Gus Malcolm’s shock lie next week, leaving her reeling.
The character realises her ex has been lying to her in upcoming episodes, amid drama in scenes airing this week. In scenes this week Gus comes to a truce with Rhona, or so she believes, as they’re ongoing issues around baby Ivy lead to an attack.
But just as Rhona believes they have got somewhere, she uncovers his true plan leaving her rattled. Viewers will recall that last year, Rhona found out Gus and his partner Lucy were expecting a baby together despite them telling Rhona months earlier that they were having fertility issues and could not conceive a child.
Years earlier, Rhona and Gus had had IVF treatment which led to them freezing some embryos, but when they split up Rhona assumed they were destroyed. Gus stopped this from happening, before asking if he and Lucy could use them a year ago.
Rhona declined, but Gus forged her signature and Lucy fell pregnant with his and Rhona’s embryo. Tragically Lucy died while giving birth to baby Ivy leaving her partner distraught and grief-stricken, while Rhona was torn that a baby that was biologically hers no longer had a mother.

What started as Rhona and her family helping Gus out led to Rhona admitting she could not let go of Ivy, and wanted to be part of her life. A war forged between the parents as Gus planned to flee with the baby only for Rhona to take Ivy away from the village, with her arrested for kidnap.
As things come to a head, with Rhona facing court over her charges, she tells her loved ones she will not plead guilty – and the news soon reaches Gus who is furious. Him and Marlon end up having a row, with Gus thrown to the ground – only making things worse.
Rhona is left stunned when Gus offers a compromise and suggests they both change their statements and work towards a not guilty verdict. He seems to suggest Rhona can have access to Ivy and he will cancel the house sale, with it seeming as though Rhona agrees to this.
But next week things take another turn, when Rhona finds out Gus has lied as she uncovers his real plan for Ivy. She realises Gus is deceiving her about the move and the access plans, and promises to continue fighting until Ivy is under her care and not his – but will she succeed?
