Pierce is currently in prison

| Updated:

Emmerdale fans have a shocking theory about Pierce’s son Marcus as he arrived in the village in last night’s episode (Thursday, February 3).

Earlier this week, Rhona received a letter from her ex-husband and rapist, Pierce Harris, who is currently in prison.

He told her he was dying and wanted help finding his son Marcus.

With Ryan’s help, Rhona managed to contact Marcus. However Vanessa tried to keep Marcus away by pretending to be Rhona.

But Rhona found out what Vanessa did when Marcus turned up in the village looking for her.

Rhona and Marcus went for a talk and she filled him in on everything.

Marcus explained he hadn’t seen his dad since he was young, but had heard about his crimes over the years through the news.

Marcus then asked Rhona if she would go with him to the prison to visit Pierce.

However fans think Pierce and Marcus could be working together to get Rhona to visit Pierce again as part of revenge.

Who is Pierce Harris in Emmerdale?

Rhona and Pierce got married in 2017, but he raped her on their wedding day.

Rhona reported Pierce and bravely faced him in court when he went on trial.

Pierce was found guilty and sentenced to five years behind bars.

In 2019 he was released from prison and in January 2020, he murdered Rhona’s boyfriend Graham Foster and set up Marlon Dingle for the murder.

Pierce soon took Vanessa’s son Johnny and held them both captive in Mulberry cottage.

Eventually Pierce was caught by police and went back to prison.

In March 2020 he pleaded guilty to Graham’s murder and later that month he was sentenced to life in prison for kidnapping, false imprisonment and murder.
