Emmerdale spoilers: Vanessa Woodfield takes on Pierce Harris as he plans revenge porn shock for Rhona Goskirk
The vet and Rhona's ex is set to take evil Pierce on as she fights to get Rhona to see what he really is
EMMERDALE rapist Pierce Harris will soon meet his match when Vanessa Woodfield realises what he's doing to Rhona Goskirk.
The evil rapist - who is played by actor Jonathan Wrather - will be taken to task by vet Vanessa as she begins to notice his overwhelmingly controlling behaviour towards Rhona.
Confronting Pierce, Vannesa questions him over why he has refused to buy Rhona an engagement ring and enrages the businessman with her questions.
But later when he discovers that Vanessa has told Rhona what she thinks, he turns up at her house and confronts her, trying to scare her off.
Not cowed by the bully, Vanessa becomes even more determined to make Rhona see exactly what kind of man Pierce is.
Unfortunately it seems Pierce is one step ahead and schemes a way to alienate Vanessa from Rhona.
Evil Pierce will take his sordid actions one step further and film fiancee Rhona Goskirk's secret sex tape and let Vanessa find it.
The pair are currently in the midst of an abusive storyline which soap fans have suggested could ultimately see the vet (Zoe Henry) killed off.
Yet the actress has now revealed the next twist in their plot and magazine cogs started turning when control-freak Pierce spotted a bag of lingerie in Rhona's room and persuades her to try it on.
She confessed he would record her striptease wearing the lacy lingerie by leaving his camera running and said: "She doesn't see any of this awful Pierce behaviour!
"When Vanessa (her mate) does say all the nasty things about him it's a massive shock.
"I think in these situations you only see what you want to see."
in the same episode, Vanessa has a spat with Rhona about Pierce and tries to reveal his true colours.

Meanwhile it seems Rhona's future on the show may hang in the balance.
Shocki claims have emerged about the way the heartbreaking storyline will end with showrunner Iain MacLeod revealing at a press conference: “Rhona and Pierce’s story is swinging into top gear.
“What I’ve loved about it so far is that as soon as people saw Pierce getting together with Rhona so quickly, they started to suspect there was something not quite right about him."
He added: “We’ve taken our time and let that story develop slowly and it reaches a kind of peak in April-May time, I think. It doesn’t come to an end there but there’s a big story explosion.
“The episodes are heart-stoppingly dramatic, quite a tough watch but an unbelievably big talking point heading into the summer.”
The claims that the storyline will then end in death for one of the characters.
