Emmerdale fans baffled over missing Gus update as they slam Rhona's 'mistake'
Emmerdale issued an update about Gus Malcolms on Friday night after Rhona Goskirk's ex-husband went missing, leaving baby daughter Ivy in the village.
Soap watchers will recall that Gus showed up in the village earlier this year, asking ex Rhona for her help. He revealed to her that he was in a new relationship and wanted to have kids with his new partner, Lucy, but they weren't able to. Gus said he had kept the embryos they had frozen while together and wanted to use them but needed her permission, as she was the other parent of the embryo.
Rhona was left floored as she believed the embryos had been destroyed and after meeting Lucy, contemplated letting them use the embryos before changing her mind. However, things took a dramatic turn last month when Rhona discovered that Lucy was heavily pregnant and Gus had used their embryos without Rhona's consent, even stealing the latter's passport to forge documents and fake her consent.

Later, in the hospital, it was revealed that Lucy had died while giving birth due to complications and the baby girl, Ivy, was in intensive care.
Only recently, Rhona's mother Mary Goskirk grew increasingly concerned as it was clear Gus was reaching his absolute breaking point as a single grieving dad with baby Ivy. Later, Rhona and current husband Marlon Dingle were left stunned to find their new house guests - Gus and Ivy with the duo also there for Christmas Day.

Earlier this week, Gus called Rhona home to look after Ivy but it was soon clear that he had gone missing. Marlon was left worried about Gus, suggesting they call the police but Rhona wasn't concerned and later insisted he had text her, claiming he was okay. Marlon and Mary agreed they would call the police the next day if Gus didn't show up.
On Friday's episode, there was still no sign of Gus and Rhona received a letter in the post from her ex-husband. Rhona revealed that the letter said Gus was struggling after Lucy's death and he was grateful Rhona could look after Ivy. Gus asked if Rhona could look after Ivy a bit longer as he needs time to himself.
Marlon was understandably concerned and worried, insisting they call the police, but Rhona was quick to fire back at her husband for judging her, claiming she's 'my daughter and she needs me'.
