Emmerdale viewers are more convinced than ever that a Robron reunion is just around the corner – and what’s more, they reckon the couple could be in line to have a baby!
Robron fans were treated to an adorable scene in tonight’s episode, as Robert struggled to juggle looking after Seb with working at the haulage yard, and was forced to ask Aaron to step in to help.

He handed his crying son Seb to Aaron while he searched for his phone – which had been buried under a pile of paperwork on his desk. And to Robert’s surprise, the baby stopped crying the minute he was in Aaron’s arms!
It would seem that Aaron has quite the knack when it comes to soothing a crying infant. There was a tender moment between the former lovebirds as they acknowledged their great teamwork – and it certainly delighted Emmerdale fans, who have been rooting for Robert and Aaron to get back together for the past few months.
Viewers took to Twitter to express their delight at the scene. And the sight of Aaron with an adorable baby in his arms made many go weak at the knees…

Of course, Seb was the reason that Robert and Aaron split in the first place, after Robert cheated on his husband with Rebecca while Aaron was in prison. But despite Aaron having moved on with new boyfriend Alex, there’s no denying that the chemistry is still there between him and Robert.
As poor Rob bemoaned how hard it was being a single dad trying to cope on his own, Aaron assured him, ‘You’re not on your own though, are you?’, before quickly adding, ‘I mean, Diane and Victoria’.
But fans clearly think that Aaron has all the qualities required to be a great father. And whether that means Robron getting back together and caring for Seb, or having a baby of their own, it’s clear that any little’un would be lucky to have these two as their doting daddies.

Even Aaron had to agree that he’d had fun bonding with little Seb. “Not going to lie though, he’s pretty cute,” he grinned at Robert.
So how much longer will we have to wait for the Dales’ favourite couple to get back together, an dfor Aaron to adopt full-time daddy responsibility?
Emmerdale continues tomorrow at 7pm.
