Emmerdale: When will Debbie return?
While Debbie is mentioned in the show, it hasn’t been confirmed when Charley will be returning to work.
Back in May, Charley admitted she isn’t ready to return to work yet as she is focused on motherhood.
The mum of three told OK Magazine: “At home with the kids is where I need to be at the moment.
“We’re in talks and work have been amazing about giving me the extra time I need. The difference from two to three children feels huge, so I haven’t confirmed when I’m going back yet.
“Bowie starts school in September and I want to be around for that. I can’t imagine being back at work at the moment.”
Emmerdale: Charity, Vanessa and Kirin

Before lockdown, Charity and Vanessa began making plans for Charity to adopt the vet’s son, Johnny. However Charity realised she needed the permission of Johnny’s dad Kirin, who is currently on the run.
While she went to Kirin’s former stepmother Priya to see if she knew anything, she admitted she didn’t know her ex-husband, or Kirin’s whereabouts.
But could Charity be one step closer?
Emmerdale is on next week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 7pm on ITV.
