Major Emmerdale couple ‘set to reunite’ as Lewis works his magic

Having just managed to turn around the fortunes of the café with his Midas touch, Emmerdale’s Lewis Barton (Bradley Riches) is about to go into Cupid mode as well.

There is nothing this kid can’t do, from growing medicinal weed to making the villagers Shakshuka eggs, now he’s about to solve his brother’s love woes to boot.

Lewis learns about Ross Barton (Mike Parr) failed relationship with Steph (Georgia Jay) and resolves to do something about it.

Ross and Steph had an unexpected relationship that flourished for a while but quickly became doomed when she learned that she was the product of sexual abuse and that her grandfather was really her father.

Something like that can really put a dampener on a fledgling relationship, and for her and Ross it was too much. Steph was distraught to learn of what happened to her mother and became fixated on her looks, claiming that every glance in a mirror she saw Anthony looking back at her.

After several failed attempts at plastic surgery, Steph finally broke down and despite all his support, dumped Ross to focus on herself. She told him she couldn’t be the person he needed, and she was setting him free.

Steph hasn’t been seen much since then, but she’s back.

Lewis digs into Ross’ relationship and finds himself intrigued by the story with Steph. It doesn’t seem to have had a proper ending; it was more like bad timing.

Steph sadly confesses to Lewis that she wishes things could have ended differently with Ross after everything he’d done for her and all Lewis hears is that there are unresolved feelings involved.

He decides to play match maker and bring them back together.
