i don't know anything about robron (but have been very entertained by everyone freaking out). would you mind giving a rundown of their story? what's the show about?
Oh anon… you’re in for a treat here strap in it’s gonna be a bumpy ride
Okay so first off robron is from a British soap opera called Emmerdale which has been running for a long while Robert Sugden was born on the show and had a few actors play Robert in his kid and teen years until Robert left (I’m not sure when I’m sorry) but in 2014 he came back with Ryan Hawley as Robert
And he was engaged to Chrissie White and they moved up to Home Farm where he did things and stuff (I can’t remember off the top of my head) then he meets Aaron Dingle (Livesy at the time)
a grumpy mechanic (who has been played by Danny Miller since 2008?? he is a gay man his coming out story is so good) they meet they wind each other up there’s alot of sexual tension (we don’t know at the time but Robert is bisexual he comes out in 2016) anywho they have the most Epic first kiss I’ve ever seen
An affair begins they fuck in barns in garages everywhere and anywhere lol then Katie, Roberts sister in law catches Robert and Aaron sneak a kiss on the day of Robert’s wedding to Chrissie things happen and somehow she falls through a faulty floorboard!! Anywho Robert gets married, Aaron crashes the wedding there’s alot of staring at each other, Katie died it’s all a good dramatic time.
More drama happens Robert and Aaron’s affair went on a pause for a good month or two but then they get right back on it more drama happened fast forward to July 2015, Aaron wants to expose Robert so he lures him to a lodge so he can record etc etc we get The Lodge™️ scene, Robert’s tied Aaron to a radiator whilst holding a gun declaring his love for him <333 very romantic if ask me
Things happen they get out Aaron goes to Chrissie and still exposes their affair in the most delicious scene ever absolute perfection if you ask me. Things go pretty crappy for Robert he starts being a real nasty menace then he gets shot in oct 2015, Aaron was a suspect because when you love someone so much but you don’t want to death is the only option :) (news flash he didn’t shoot Robert)
Flash forward to 2016 Aarons has a very powerful and special storyline of being sexually abused by his father. Truly this storyline is very close to my heart Danny did it beautifully. Robert helps him and comforts him eventually his father gets sent to prison and in April Robert and Aaron get together for real
They’re cute boyfriends for a while and then in oct 2016 Robert wants to propose and sets up this cute proposal but Aaron ruins it by kidnapping a kid and keeping him in the boot! Romantic comedy for sure!
They share a moment Robert doesn’t propose they get in the car but there was a big crash and they landed in the water they have a romantic scene where Aaron’s telling him to go Robert saying ‘I’m not leaving you’ it’s just *chefs kiss* beautiful they get out they get engaged flash forward to 2017 Aarons beats some guy up (there’s alot to unpack here but we’d be here all day) he gets arrested sentenced to prison Robert makes a surprise wedding the day before he goes to prison is beautiful it’s amazing it’s perfect.
The next day they have to say goodbye it’s PAIN prison is not fun for either one of them Aaron lashes out and pushes Robert away Robert gets drunk and ugh has sex with Rebecca White (yes his ex wife’s sister) she gets pregnant (there’s also a lot to unpack with all of this but I just can’t) Aaron gets out of prison things are okay for a bit Robert comes clean about sleeping with Rebecca and the baby it’s a beautiful ep tbh they try to make it work and get through the problems but eventually Aaron has to break up with Robert in July 2017 (after wrench throwing) a lot of other stuff happen in 2017 but it’s alot and this post is already getting too long lol
2018! Robert and Aaron share a moment on Valentine’s Day they almost kiss it’s beautiful eventually they get back together the next week in such a beautiful special episode!!
They get together again they move in they coparent together it’s really beautiful. They repropose to each other it’s cute then they get remarried in October 2018 fast forward they decide they want to have kids of their own so they try for surrogacy but then Vic (Roberts sister) gets raped and that got put on hold. Robert does a Hero move hits the rapist on the head with a shovel as he should the guy dies Robert gets charged and is sent to prison.
That brings us to today obviously there’s a lot that happened that I cant even remotely try to tell you or explain lol but just know that this is the greatest love story ever told and the best part is is that it isn’t over!!!
