He's back!
The star - who played scheming Robert between 2014 and 2019 in the ITV soap - agreed to return as a one-off treat for fans as ex-husband Aaron Dingle prepares to marry Robert's killer brother John Sugden.
Viewers have watched this week as John has struck again - terrorising his ex Aidan to death after he woke from his coma.
The episode ended with Aaron ending things before getting into his car and preparing to drive off.
However tonight they worked through their issues and made it to their own wedding - just in time for Robert to make a shock appearance determined to win Aaron back.
"Hello Aaron," he said.
"Miss me?"
But will which brother will Aaron choose? And what will the rest of the village think about Robert being back?
ITV pulled the episode from its streaming service ITVX ahead of its usual 7am broadcast in an effort to maintain the surprise for fans.
However Aaron Dingle actor Danny Miller teased the return of Robert during an appearance on Loose Women.
A source speaking at the time said: 'Ryan has a lot of respect for the show and its fans and he really wanted to give them a treat so he agreed to come back for a brief stint.
'It's going to be a huge surprise for fans especially the Robron fans who have missed Robert desperately since Ryan quit.
'Nothing was seen as being too extreme to keep the secret with fake names on scripts, smuggling him in and out of the studios and keeping everything very tight.'

Chris wrote over the photo: "Sleeping beauty." The photo wasn't up on Chris' Instagram for long, but fans of the couple grabbed it and shared it on TikTok. Some had questioned their romance, with many pointing to another video of the pair showing JoJo pulling away when Chris leans in for a kiss. 'I think they aren't together and it's all for publicity as they would kiss by now,' one person said. 'Has anyone seen them kiss each other?' another asked. Another fan simply replied to the posts with the picture of Chris kissing JoJo in bed. Another JoJo and Chris fan said: "My heart can't take it!" Chris and JoJo have not commented on reports surrounding their relationship after previously insisting they were platonic. However, they've been dropping major hints that they are an item. Watch as JoJo Siwa makes Chris Hughes blush with cute tribute as he proudly watches her perform in London JoJo recently sent fans wild at her London gigs this week after she told them onstage she had 'never felt so special and so loved'. She also went on to change the lyrics of Bette Davis Eyes to 'Chris Hughes' eyes' as he looked on, giddy and red-faced at a music venue in Shoreditch. Chris could not attend the second of her two-night run there — but JoJo didn't miss her moment to shout out to him, singing to his orange beanie which she had placed in the crowd. It comes after Chris made a 12-hour flight from the UK to Mexico to support JoJo as she performed to fans in Mexico City. He later posted cosy snaps of them together online. The two were then spotted kissing in The Sun's exclusive photos while straddling a lilo at an adults-only hotel. 6 When JoJo returned to London for her shows this week the pair had a emotional reunion at Heathrow airport Credit: Instagram 6 The two were recently spotted kissing while straddling a lilo at an adults-only hotel in Mexico

‘Drab Meghan Markle doesn't entertain OR inform – so what's the point of her ‘lifestyle' show?' asks expert
MEGHAN Markle's new Netflix cooking show has been slammed by a royal expert for not 'being entertaining or informative.' Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, broadcaster Esther Krakue questioned the point of the eight-part With Love, Meghan, which saw the duchess hosting celeb pals such as Mindy Kaling and Abigail Spencer. 4 Meghan Markle's eight-episode Netflix cooking show aired in March Credit: PA 4 With Love, Meghan saw her cook with a host of pals, including make-up artist Daniel Martin, who did her wedding day look Credit: AP The Netflix series saw Meghan making guest baskets, beeswax candles, and a single skillet spaghetti, filmed at a farmhouse near her £12million Montecito mansion. Esther shared: 'There's nothing there. 'She's very, like - I'm not saying this to be horrible - she is not an entertainer or an entertaining person. 'There's not much personality there. 'I never learn anything from her. I love lifestyle shows. I watch them every day. I don't learn anything. I didn't learn anything from hers. And she's just not entertaining. 'She's not a fun person to be around. 'You don't think this is the person I want to go to the pub with to have a pint with. 'It's very clear that she is not box office in terms of entertainment quality.' Meghan is too vacuous. Why can't she promote women in a realistic way? Speaking of the content of the show, Esther said: 'That's not what I want to know.' She explained: 'I want to know, how did you bag a prince? 'What did you do? What were the techniques? Who's your waxing lady? I never learn anything from her. I love lifestyle shows. I watch them every day. I don't learn anything Esther Krakue 'I want to know the juicy stuff that should make her interesting, but she's so terrified to tell the public. 'It was clear from the first episode that this is, the way she sees herself and who she actually is are quite different. 'I don't look at Meghan as someone who I would get business advice from because I find her quite vacuous. "She doesn't have the energy of a host. I don't think. She's very kind of drab and boring." £78M Netflix deal The Netflix series has been renewed for a second and third series, following its debut on March 4, 2025, but Esther queried if the streaming giant has any regrets. After signing on the Sussexes in a deal reportedly worth £78million over five years, they have so far created their Harry & Meghan documentary, Invictus and Polo. 4 The couple released their Harry & Meghan documentary as part of their Netflix deal Credit: Netflix Esther said: 'I don't think they've got any value for money with this couple. 'It was obviously a business risk taking them on. 'I think two years into it, they realised they'd sunk money into the world's most boring couple that needed a lifetime supply of money to pay for their security. 'Harry actually said that, he said, 'I was offered this and I needed to pay for my family's security.' Despite any criticism, Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos is said to be in full support of the Duchess of Sussex. 4 With Love, Meghan has been renewed for a third season Credit: Netflix A source told MailOnline: "What people do not understand about the situation is that [Netflix CEO] Ted Sarandos is a massive, massive fan of Meghan personally. 'He calls her 'the rock star'. 'There is no way that her deal does not get renewed. 'Ted is in the Meghan business and that is not about to change. He is all in." The second series of With Love, Meghan — with no Harry or their children Archie, six, and Lilibet, three — has already been filmed and is due to be screened in the autumn.

Patsy Kensit reveals Emmerdale and EastEnders return chances
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Former Emmerdale star Patsy Kensit revealed that she'd 'give anything' to return to EastEnders if the opportunity arises. The Lethal Weapon 2 actress played Emma Harding, mum to former mainstay Lola Pearce, on the long-running BBC serial two years ago. To soap audiences, this wasn't Patsy's first role in the genre, having played schemer Sadie King on Emmerdale between 2004 and 2006. Sadie is a character that fans have longed to stage a comeback and therefore we couldn't resist asking her about the chances of such a thing on the red carpet at the British Soap Awards. 'I had an amazing time on Emmerdale but I loved EastEnders also very very much,' said Patsy. 'I would give anything to get back on that show because it was a joy, as was Emmerdale but if I could put a wish out, it would be to go back to Walford.' When Emma last left the Square, she had slept with Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) in a story that resulted in the patriarch's marriage to Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) coming to an end. There was subsequent discussion among fans about whether or not we'd see her stage a return – and if she could perhaps return with Phil's baby. Weighing in on such a theory, Patsy said: 'I mean, age allowing! That would be a medical miracle, would it not? But I think that would be a great way to come back – pushing a pram! More Trending 'But also Lexi, because she's got the teenage years yet. Isabella [Brown], who plays her is such a brilliant actress. 'There's a great relationship and conflict that could happen. But it's in the hands of the gods! And the gods are the writers on these shows – and the writing is brilliant. As it was on Emmerdale.' View More » Make it happen, EastEnders!
