The way he was talking to Chrissie about it, it seemed like she is seeing someone.
I bet they will just say it was nothing serious or a rebound relationship if needs must.

Mike Parr: 'It's bleak out there – I'm just grateful to be working on Emmerdale' (VIDEO)
Emmerdale star Mike Parr spoke about the fragile life of an actor and how he takes nothing for granted because 'it's bleak out there'.
He talked to What's on TV at the British Soap Awards about his character Ross Barton's relatively quiet time on the ITV soap, which won best soap at the 2016 awards.
He said: "I had such a busy two and a half years, it was going to be impossible to keep up that level of RPMs, so maybe it was good to have some downtime. Iain [MacLeod, Emmerdale's executive producer] has just come in, it's nice to work with him and see his ideas, so I've just got to keep my fingers crossed and hope he doesn't [mimes cutting his throat]!"
Mike doesn't want to rest on his laurels – Ross has been a pivotal character in much of Emmerdale's biggest storylines and he hopes that continues.
"I want to be there so much that the work rate is nothing out of the ordinary for me," he said. "I went to drama school and we were doing the same hours at drama school so they really drilled it into us how on top of it you have to be.
"I'm just grateful to be working, you know, it's bleak out there. I feel everyone that's trying and hustling and isn't getting anywhere and that could've been me. I'm just lapping it up while it's there."
He had lavish praise for his on-screen mother, Gillian Kearney, who plays Emma Barton. "It's just great to be on set and to watch Gill work. She'll kill me for saying this, but she was acting way before, she was doing Debbie and Damon [Brookside] way before I was even a sparkle in my father's eye, so it's just lovely to watch her, to see her professionalism. and her attitude towards it and just watch her.
"She's got great professionalism, she's inspiring and she plays one kooky b----... Especially because Ross is crazy, she's crazy I think they've got a lot of things to come in the future."

Can anyone else see Emma and Ross teaming up against people in the future? Like Michael said "Emma is crazy, Ross is crazy". My theory is that when the barton family find out Ross shot Robert, Finn and James will disown him. Then when thye find out about the lies that Emma has told and the time she left James for dead, Emma and Ross will be both be left in the cold. They would be a dangerous pairing.

Think of all the people they could potentially plot against- Charity, James, Chas, Cain/Moira, Pete. Mother and son partner in crime hasn't been done on Emmerdale before has it? I think it would be a good storyline but it would probably be an exit storyline for either Ross or Emma or both.
5. Meanwhile, Emma is furious to find a pregnancy test and Chas’ eyeliner hidden by James and fumes. Later, she fakes a funny turn and a concerned James later discovers she has been lying. But as Emma is ostracised from the family, who will she lash out at?

No way would Moses be involved in this, right?!!!

Believing that James is cheating on her, scheming Emma tries to trap him into a confession and seethes when she later sees him talking to Chas again. Attention seeking Emma fakes a funny turn and, worried for her condition, James heads to the GP surgery to talk things through with Dr Bailey. But what will he find?
Whatever transpires, Emma’s lies about her alleged illness are soon exposed and Finn, Ross and Pete all turn their backs on her.
As Emma leaves under a cloud, she notices a distressed Chas and her nursing instincts kick in, prompting her to come to her enemy’s aid. Helping Chas to a mental health clinic, Emma is the picture of kindness – but could she secretly be plotting revenge?
Later, Charity is stunned to find the Woolpack is totally trashed and Chas stops her calling the police, accepting that the PTSD is back and she is responsible for the chaos. Panicking, she meets up with Emma and insists that she needs to go to hospital.

So is this really the big story for the Bartons, Emma tells a lie then everyone disowns her? Hardly seems like a thrilling watch.
Pete will discover Emma’s lie – and will then lie himself!
Anthony Quinlan confirmed to us that Pete would soon discover the lies his mum was telling about having Motor Neurone Disease and his reaction may well surprise viewers. Teasing that Pete may have a few lies to tell of his own, there is a complex web being weaved among the Bartons.

Not sure what this could be about - in the spoilers, it sounds like Ross and co find out Emma hs been lying so what lie could Pete being lying about? Debbie?

Pete could do as much dodgy stuff has he wants but he will never have Ross's charisma or edginess. Dont get me wrong I would like Pete to become a more interesting character but I hope they dont make him too much like Ross. Also I think this lie that Pete tells is to do with the taxi firm, I read that he tells a lie to save the taxi firm as it struggles at first.

seems like the Metro has picked up on a lot of Ross fans unhappy with what we're getting at the moment:
Emmerdale spoilers: There are big storylines ahead for Ross Barton
Things have been relatively quiet for Ross Barton in Emmerdale recently – but all of that is set to change as new producer Iain MacLeod has promised some big material is in the pipeline for actor Mike Parr.
Since Debbie left in the New Year, poor Ross has been like a lost puppy – but, in fairness, the character needed a bit of a break after nearly being killed by his brother Pete.
But with Charley Webb set to return to the role of Debbie soon and the Barton family about to be rocked by the reveal of mum Emma’s lie, there are intriguing times ahead for the clan – and the show boss has reiterated that Ross remains a hugely important character in the soap.
Speaking to Metro.co.uk at the British Soap Awards, he said: ‘Ross is one of the most important characters in the show and part of one of the most important families on the show. I love the Bartons and I think there are a lot of exciting things to come for them – you’ll just have to wait and see what they are!’
So there you have it Ross fans, it won’t be long before your favourite bad boy is back in the thick of the action again.

I dont want him back with Debbie, he seems to lose that spark when he is with her. He needs to continue to be a one man crusade, winding everyone up and pulling various women ;). His one man crusade should include:
1. Taking Moses off Charity for good, and making clear that if she grasses Ross up her precious daughter goes down too.
2. Let Debbie know that Donna was the only one he ever really loved, she was just a prize in a long running feud with Pete.
3. Punch Cain, because he owes him one or two.
4. Spend more time with April and save her from boring Marlon and also hopefully start his fling with Carly up again.
Ross and Debbie IMO just do not suit at all.

If they put Ross in another relationship hopefully its with someone who doesn't want to change who he is. Im not saying someone who would never stand up to him and let him carry out his crimes but someone who understands why he thinks the world is against him. Also someone who can deal with the fact that he loves to wind people up.

I really dont get some Emmerdale viewers, Ross winds Pete up (a grown man) hes childish and a bully. Robert intimates a little boy, whether he was serious or not surely is worse? Yet people just say well done Robert was hilarious. I thought both things were hilarious but I cant believe how biased some people can be.
Seems like Michael Parr has been told Ross and Debbie will be getting back together.
Emmerdale star Michael Parr - Sparks will fly between Ross and Debbie when Charley Webb returns
The actor reveals all about his on-screen romance and an off-screen charity climb up Everest
Emmerdale star Michael Parr has promised that sparks will fly between Ross and Debbie once actress Charley Webb returns from maternity leave.
Debbie hasn't been seen since New Year's Day when she quit the village and left a heartbroken Ross behind. But Parr says that this isn't the end of the story.
"It'd be great to have Charley back. Obviously, there'll be some kind of dynamic between them, what with her being the love of his life," Parr told RadioTimes.com. "It's been refreshing her being away, but when she gets back, there will be sparks for Ross and Debbie."
During their time together, Ross and Debbie were involved in a number of high-profile storylines that saw the two of them fighting their feelings for each other and becoming embroiled in no end of lawbreaking scams.
On the topic of Webb's absence from the ITV soap since the birth of her second son Bowie, Parr added: "I've not been told off on set for ages. No one's been bossing me around, so I really don't know what to do without Charley."
The actor also revealed that he plans to take a break himself this October in order to take on a fund-raising expedition in Nepal.
"My contract is up in October, so I'll be climbing Mount Everest for a charity called the Steve Prescott Foundation. He was a rugby player who sadly died of cancer way before his time. He did a lot of work with the Christie Hospital in Manchester, which is renowned for its work with cancer patients.
"This is our million-pound year, so we're trying to raise as much money as we can by doing some of the most extreme things you can do. In preparation, I've been trying to get fat because you need to have an energy supply while you're up there. So I've been eating a lot of pizza and Ben and Jerry's."
As for whether he'll return as Ross following his climb, Parr assured fans: "If I don't fall off the mountain, then I'd be happy to come back."

I doubt he would know what Iain is planning just yet he is probably just assuming on this one. Obviously they will have some sort of confrontation but Im hoping they dont get back together. Im just interested to see how they write him out the show for a few months.

They could have told him some plans for his character. I'm sure the stories are planned well in advance. Sharon Marshall said they were writing the stuff now for the big soap week in October. I think
i like Ross and Debbie together. They have a lot in common and yet a lot of differences. They can teach each other so much about life - Debbie has shown Ross what it's like to be a family man. Ross has shown Debbie about how to live life.
They have a lot to work on but I think they can be great together.
