Emmerdale spoilers: Debbie Dingle pregnant by scheming Joseph Tate?

EMMERDALE viewers got the shock of their lives when it was discovered that Tom Waterhouse (Ned Porteous) was actually Chris Tate's son Joseph.

Emmerdale's Joseph Tate came back to wreak revenge on Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) after he became convinced her infidelity caused his dad to take his own life.

Back in 2003, Charity was married to Chris, but after he learned she had cheated on him, he poisoned himself and framed Charity to make it seem like she murdered him.

Part of the plot saw him fake a romance with Charity's daughter Debbie Dingle (Charley Webb), who he branded "collateral damage".
