Emmerdale’s Rhona Goskirk decides not to press charges after violent rape and suffers from vile husband Pierce Harris’ taunts
RHONA Goskirk decided not to press charges following her horrifying rape ordeal on this evening's episode of Emmerdale.
And after she returned from the station, her despicable husband Pierce Harris (Jonathan Wrather) taunted her.
Not knowing that she had reported the rape, he had the audacity to chide her as she threatened to call the police if he didn't leave the house.
Rhona (Zoe Henry) had spent the night away from him before being interviewed by the police.
Last night viewers watched Rhona report the rape and was sent to the , where she was examined.
During tonight's episode, she was interviewed by a police officer about what had happened.
Rhona began by telling her: "Yesterday, he raped me."

She went on to say that she "didn't mean to kiss him" and that they "loved each other once".
Clearly struggling as she tried to understand what had happened, she said: "But he'd known all this time and he'd never said anything... it was the necklace, it was a gift, you know?"
When asked what happened next, she revealed: "He’s been angry before, but not like this. He… he pulled the necklace off of me and I told him, I said that I’d made a massive mistake. Why did I have to say that?”
The officer told her that none of it was her fault, but Rhona stopped the interview.
She heartbreakingly told the officer that it was because of the way she had looked at her.
Rhona insisted tearfully: "I'm not a victim."
When she returned to the house Rhona was horrified to see Pierce still there.
He asked where she had been and she told him to get out.
Pierce said: "It's no wonder we argue, I couldn't help myself. My wife kissing her ex... what red-blooded male wouldn't be jealous?"
She asked him how he could go near her after what he had done, but he ignored her and talked about going on their honeymoon.
When he continued to go on about their hotel room she screamed at him to get out.
Rhona stood against the wall to get away from him as he told her that she couldn't make him leave.
She said: "Well, if you don't leave now I will ring the police. I will tell them anything."
Pierce tutted as he took the phone away from her: "Rhona, sweetheart, I'll leave you to calm down."
Will Rhona go back to the police and finish giving her statement.
