Emmerdale’s John makes lost love admission as we finally get answers
Share:
When John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) first arrived in Emmerdale in August he was an enigma. A self-described lone wolf, John was so fiercely independent and defensive that even his half sister, Victoria Sugden (Isabel Hodgins), found it ridiculously difficult getting to know him.

At first he couldn’t wait to get away from the village and only the fact that his van, which was also his home, needed repairs before he could move on kept him there. Gradually, however, he’s found a place in the village and is working as a paramedic attached to the Brook Cottage Surgery practice. He’s on friendly terms with Victoria, but his most important relationship has been with Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller).
What started out as a casual hook-up has developed into a close relationship, even overcoming the awkwardness of John being the brother of Aaron’s former husband Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley).

Up Next. Neither John or Aaron are the most forthcoming of people, both tending to be quite gruff and guarded. Possibly that’s what makes the relationship work as neither of them asks more than the other is prepared to give. Still, there’s been a particular mystery attached to John. He carries around the dog tag of someone called Aidan Moore and has been very sensitive about anyone asking about it. We know that he and Aidan served together in the army and he was killed when a bomb went off. Medic John had tried to save him but could only hold his hand as he died.
