Compared to the other spoilers that we’ve gotten, I am actually calm about the new ones.
I mean, I think we all know that its a complex relationship plus its a drama so they are sticking to that route, but that doesn’t mean the end of Robert and Aaron.
Robert, bless his cocky soul, is a complex character who has worked to get to where he is now and he still isn’t ready to face the fact that he’s bisexual. I mean, the poor guy has just come to terms with the fact that he has fallen for Aaron - he’s hardly going to go shouting it round the street if he’s scared and Chas is threatening, not only to ruin everything he’s worked for, but also threatening to take Aaron off him and expose a secret he himself is not comfortable with, yet.
Yes, the whole “trying to kill chas using a hitman,” may seem a little farfetched but this is a drama soap and Robert has always been a “desperate times calls for desperate measures” kind of guy, an “every man for himself” kind of guy, which just calls for drama.
But its also been confirmed that Robert was genuine in his “I love you” to Aaron and he’s set to prove this in an upcoming episode.
Am I condoning what he does? No. Course not.
But I’m not giving up on him just yet. This story is set for a long mileage yet and I have faith the writers know what they are doing.
