Emmerdale viewers are convinced Jacob Gallagher is actually baby Theo’s father after last night’s episode of the soap (Monday, March 23).
David Metcalfe was shocked on Christmas Day when his ex-girlfriend Maya Stepney, who had been grooming David’s son 16-year-old son Jacob, left a baby on their doorstep.
What did the DNA test say?
A DNA test appeared to prove David was Theo’s father, but after last night’s episode, viewers aren’t convinced.
Theo had a joint christening with Chas and Paddy’s daughter, Eve, and Victoria’s son, Harry.
I still think Jacob is Theo’s dad.
David was concerned his parental responsibility hadn’t come through, but managed to enjoy the day.
After the christening, Jacob and David took Theo home, where the letter David had been waiting for was sitting on the doormat.

But viewers aren’t convinced it’s that easy. They now think Jacob is Theo’s dad.
