Emmerdale fans feel sick as Rodney reminds them he once dated Kelly Windsor

Kelly was much younger than Rodney

Last night in Emmerdale (Thursday, January 11), Rodney started chatting to Jacob about his past love life with Kelly Windsor.

Noting that he’d dated some older women in his time, he also remembered that he dated Kelly – a younger woman.

Emmerdale fans have now been left feeling rather queasy after Rodney’s nostalgic comment.

Emmerdale: Rodney reflected on his love life

Yesterday in Emmerdale, Jacob was talking to Rodney about his experience dating an older woman.

Viewers will know that Jacob is currently dating Victoria Sugden – his dad’s ex-girlfriend.

Rodney then mentioned that has quite the track record of dating older women himself.

He once dated a woman who said she was forty. However, her son was also forty meaning that he had actually dated an eighty year old when he was only a young man.

After this, he did then remember that he had dated a younger woman once – Kelly Windsor.

Kelly Windsor was born in 1980 meaning Rodney was thirty-one years older than her when they dated.
