When he finds out, he actually starts to quite like the idea, but yeah, it changes quite quickly. \u201d<\/p>\n<p>The actor continued to explain that because Mack wasn\u2019t involved in the process from the off, he is hurt by Charity\u2019s decision to abort their baby.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s certain gritty stuff coming that will definitely test them both,\u201d Robb admits. \u201cI hope they can move past that and I hope they can build on it because working with Emma is great! And people have come to terms with Mack and Charity!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Will they decide to keep the baby?
