Ethan and Marcus’ relationship is evolving
They make a huge decision next week
The couple is looking for a new home
The son of serial killer Pierce Harris made his debut in the Dales in February, 2022, when actor Darcy Grey joined the line-up.
Many ITV viewers were adamant he was hiding something and could be just as dangerous as his villainous father.
But as months went by, Marcus found love in the arms of Ethan Anderson (Emile John) and their romantic bond evolved quickly despite a few rocky moments.
However, Marcus is alarmed to hear Ethan’s boss Greg is coming for lunch and makes an excuse to get out of it.
He later has a change of heart and joins him – but could he have regrets?
The lovebirds made the decision to find themselves a new home in recent scenes of the Yorkshire-based drama.
Their search for the perfect place continues next week but is soon interrupted by Amelia Spencer (played by Daisy Campbell).
Much to their surprise, the teen mum suggests they buy Harriet Finch’s house but the property is out of their budget.
Yet Ethan decides it could be just their luck and convinces Marcus to put a bid in for it.
Will Marcus go along with it?
PC Harriet Finch was portrayed by Katherine Dow Blyton and died after a quad bike accident amid the soap’s dramatic storm week, earlier this year.
Since she passed, Woodbine Cottage has been left empty as Dawn and Billy Fletcher live in Home Farm along with Clemmie and Lucas.
But should Ethan and Marcus really move in together alone?
Some fans may disagree as the latter recently showed his nasty side when Nate Robinson cheated on his girlfriend Naomi Anderson.
Tensions started to grow as Ethan walked in on Marcus squaring things up with Nate.
Marcus angrily informed his partner that he didn’t like cheats and liars and that Nate had officially become one of them.
A handful of viewers believed Ethan could be hiding something from Marcus due to his reaction.
But others believe this could be a sign of more troubling, controlling behaviour from Marcus.
Emmerdale airs on ITV.
