Emmerdale star makes surprise return five months after fleeing village

2023-04-20

Emmerdale star Kerry Wyatt is set to make a brief comeback on the soap next week – five months after running away from the village following Al Chapman's betrayal.

According to spoilers, Kerry – who is played by Laura Norton – will be returning to our screens following her daughter Chloe Harris giving birth to a baby boy, Reuben.

Kerry will appear via a video call to speak with Chloe and meet the baby, as her daughter shares her struggles with motherhood after welcoming her child on the day of Mackenzie Boyd's wedding to Charity Dingle.

After Chloe honestly opens up on her struggles with Kerry, her sister Amy is relieved their mum managed to get through to Chloe.

This is the first time Kerry has been seen on the soap since her sudden exit in November last year, after viewers saw her discover that her partner Al Chapman was cheating on her.

Al was killed off from the soap back in October, and just weeks later Kerry learned of his shady betrayal. But the character didn't find out at the time that Chas Dingle was Al's mystery woman.

Laura's brief return to the soap comes after the actress, 39, welcomed her own baby girl with partner and co-star Mark Jordon, 58, in October.

"This little superstar joined us," she said at the time.

"She's dead clever and a tiny little bundle of joy and beauty. Ronnie Jordon."

In February, the couple revealed that both of their young children – Jesse, two, and baby Ronnie – suffer from the same rare genetic condition.

Both Jesse and Ronnie have been diagnosed with Usher syndrome, which causes impairments to hearing and vision, meaning those affected will need hearing aids for the rest of their lives and can suffer from sight loss later on.

The couple – who got engaged in 2019 – said they first had concerns that something was wrong with Jesse shortly after his birth in 2021, after he failed standard hearing tests.

They didn't find out he had Usher Syndrome until Laura was pregnant with Ronnie, with tests confirming their kids carried the same rare gene that causes the condition.

Laura told Hello: "My intuition told me there was a serious problem and I was in tears at the thought of it. Knowing that we'd passed this on to our son was heartbreaking."

Mark then said of their decision to go public with their children's diagnosis: "We've agonised about doing this before we've even told our children about their condition.

"We're going to write them a letter to explain why we did this and show then when they're old enough to understand."
