Emmerdale's Mackenzie Boyd hopes for a second chance from Charity Dingle next week after his secret is finally revealed.

Mackenzie makes a plea to Charity amid a furious backlash over his months of lies and deception.

This Thursday's hour-long episode (May 11) sees Charity uncover the truth when she visits the hospital and finds Mack spending time with Chloe Harris and baby Reuben.

Charity is horrified as she puts the pieces of the puzzle together and figures out that Mack is Reuben's father.

New spoilers have now confirmed the aftermath of the big revelation, as Mack's big secret spreads through the village.

Mack feels ashamed as his sister Moira Dingle pieces his months of lies together.

Although Moira shares some harsh words, her tough-talking reaction spurs Mack on to try fixing things with Charity.

As Mack faces Charity again, will she be prepared to listen?

Meanwhile, an oblivious Amy Wyatt arrives at the hospital to check on Reuben.

Feeling terrible over how things have transpired, a self-loathing Chloe breaks the news that Mack is Reuben's father.

Amy is stunned and can't believe what Chloe has done.

Lawrence Robb, who plays Mack, recently revealed where things are heading for his character in the coming weeks.

Asked what Mack's priority is once the truth comes out, Lawrence replied: "I think initially, Mack definitely wants to be with Charity. He loves Charity – he wouldn't have married her if he didn't. Initially, his priority would be to try and get Charity back, but he very quickly realises – and rightly so – that it's not on the cards.

"So he goes and helps Chloe out and helps out with the fathering. Obviously, he's got a lot to deal with, with his baby in a lot of trouble. I think that is what exacerbates the entire situation and pushes Charity to eventually find out about the entire situation.

"Mack's priorities are all over the place, and he's juggling a lot of different things. He's at a crossroads with four or five different endings, and it's a horrible position to be in."

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
