Emmerdale fans convinced they already know what ‘creepy’ newcomer Greg is up to – and he’s not working alone

EMMERDALE fans are convinced newcomer Greg is plotting to break up Ethan and Marcus - but will he succeed?

The sleazy lawyer shocked fans by making unwanted advances onto Marcus (Darcy Grey) and then accused Marcus of "groping" him.

Marcus made it clear he wasn't interested in Greg when he tried to touch him.

Greg asked him: "But how to you know? You haven't even let me try," and then proceeded to stroke his face.

This led to Marcus pinning Greg against the wall as he demanded he get his hands off of him.

Ethan (Emile John) came rushing down the stairs and asked: "What's happened?"

Greg answered: "He groped me."

Marcus protested that it was Greg who made a move on him.

Greg also protested saying he is married and could never betray his wife.

Fortunately Ethan believed Marcus and demanded Greg leave, calling him "a disgrace".

Greg warned Ethan not to be "foolish" because the partners at their firm trusted him.

"We'll see how long that lasts," Ethan shot back.

Ethan apologised for putting Marcus in this position and they hugged.

Marcus explained that he hadn't told Ethan because he feared no one would believe him because of his background.

"You are not your dad," Ethan assured him. "I trust you."

Ethan promised to report Greg to the other partners in the law firm.

He added his career was "nothing"; compared to his relationship with Marcus.

Fans are relieved that Greg failed to cause a rift between Ethan and Marcus, but fear it's not the last we've seen of him.

Taking to Twitter, one said: "Greg is such a creep!"

Another wrote: "Greg can't stay away."

A third penned: "Greg will come round again."

Does Greg have something sinister planned for the couple?
