Inside the tumultuous marriage of Aaron and Robert
Lovers Aaron and Robert first married each other in an unofficial ceremony in 2017 , during their tragic whirlwind romance. While Aaron was in prison for GBH, Robert had a drunken one night stand which ultimately led to their breakup.
They reconciled upon Aaron’s release, and legally married in 2018. However, their happiness didn’t last. After killing Victoria’s rapist, Robert was sentenced to 14 years in prison, once again tearing his marriage apart.
In the years that followed, Aaron left the village, reneging to his bad old ways. He has since returned to the village, where he remains with his family…. a single man, for now.
