There’s a new arrival on Emmerdale next week, and a new video preview has teased scenes with Robert Sugden.

Newcomer Kev makes his debut on Monday and it soon becomes clear he and Robert are known to each other from their time in prison. Monday’s episode will reveal all, with Robert’s secrets in terms of his past with Kev and their mystery link coming to light.

A new preview has revealed Kev shares some “big news” with Robert, that leaves him emotional. Robert tells Kev he’s “gutted”, and it’s something Kev has had to “get his head around”.

It’s clear he’s keen for Robert’s support, wanting him to make him laugh, while Robert seems shocked by what he has uncovered. Fans will find out what it is when the episode airs next week.

They will also see the moment Robert’s confused sister Victoria Sugden walks in and sees them together. Questioning what she’s walked into, Robert is clearly hiding something from Kev.

Kev knows all about Robert’s sister, leaving her surprised. But as Robert claims Victoria knows who Kev is, he pulls a face at her that makes it abundantly clear he’s never mentioned him – while Kev doesn’t see this.

So why exactly is Robert hiding Kev from Victoria? Again, all will be revealed as the scenes air on Monday. In the clip shared, Robert tells Kev: “I’m gutted for you,” and he seems upset and shocked.

Kev replies: “I’ve got my head around it. I just need you to smile, make me laugh, distract me.” In that moment Victoria walks in and says: “Oh I’m sorry, am I interrupting?”

Robert tells her: “I didn’t know you were gonna be back so soon,” to which she says: “Clearly…” But Kev already knows who she is, saying: “Victoria, it’s so nice to finally meet you.”

Confused she’s even more baffled when Robert claims to have told her all about Kev. He then pulls a face at her as if to encourage her to play along, as Kev says he has to leave but hopes to see them again.

Robert claims they can meet properly next time, to which he comments: “I’ll bring something for Harry, too.” Victoria looks alarmed at this, before it’s clear she wants answers.

It comes as the latest episode of the ITV soap hinted at a Robron reunion for Robert and his ex Aaron Dingle. The pair seemed closer and Aaron tried to kiss his ex, only for Robert to say it wasn’t the right time.
