At the shop, Charity walked in with husband Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) and her young son Moses.<\/p>\n<p>Moses was thrilled to see Vanessa and her son Johnny, who Charity adopted when she was engaged to Vanessa a few years previously. Mack offered to take the boys to the park, and Vanessa and Charity had a quick catch-up over recent events.<\/p>\n<p>Vanessa revealed that Tracy had also filled her in on what happened at Christmas, when Charity accidentally killed villain Harry (Robert Beck) and saved Mack\u2019s life. Charity has been suffering with PTSD ever since, and after Charity left, Vanessa remarked to Tracy that Charity clearly wasn\u2019t herself.<\/p> <p>Alone with Mack, Charity noticed he seemed a bit put out over her friendliness with her former fianc\u00e9e. She told Mack that there were \u201cno lingering feelings\u201d there for Vanessa, but she was glad that they could still get on well.<\/p>\n<p>Charity and Vanessa\u2019s strong relationship was, and still is, adored by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/soaps\/emmerdale\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Emmerdale<\/a> viewers, who dub them \u2018Vanity\u2019. Their romance reached an abrupt end in 2020, when Charity kissed Mack just as Vanessa was battling bowel cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Now it seems there\u2019s little chance that the characters will ever get back together, although this is soapland \u2013 so never say never!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/soaps\/emmerdale\/emmerdale-rhona-arrest-kidnap-newsupdate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Emmerdale\u2019s Rhona Goskirk arrested for kidnap as police track her down<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/radiotimes.production.wcp.imdserve.com\/?p=1986406&amp;preview_id=1986406&amp;preview_nonce=2de5ca4d26&amp;post_format=standard&amp;preview=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">4 Emmerdale spoilers: Belle weds Tom and Ruby exposes Tracy\u2019s affair<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/soaps\/emmerdale\/emmerdale-beth-cordingly-ruby-explained\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Who is Beth Cordingly?
