Emmerdale villain John Sugden may be hiding some dark secrets on-screen, but in real life actor Oliver Farnworth is in a happy relationship with an EastEnders icon.

The 42-year-old arrived in the Dales last year as John Sugden and it's fair to say that fans have been suspicious of him from the start.

John is set to marry Aaron next week - but will it all go to plan and will they live happily ever after?

In recent weeks, viewers have seen a flashback where John accidentally killed Nate Robinson during the barn fire.

He then tied his body in chains and dumped him in the lake, which has since been the scene of the tragic Valentine’s Day limo crash.
