He previously dated co-star Isabelle Hodgins (who plays Victoria Sugden) – but they split in 2019.
A source said at the time: “They drifted apart and felt it was better to be mates.
“He has been throwing himself into his social life and has just been on a lads’ hol and she is focusing on work, they’re both young and want to follow their dreams.
“They had a meaningful relationship and they’ll remember the good times.”
Mike initially played the role of Ross from 2013 until his departure in late 2018.
The character recently returned to screens, as part of a bare knuckle fighting ring.
He previously left the village for a new life with Rebecca (Emily Head) and her son Sebastian.
As Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle), who is caught up with the shady organisation, prepared to face his opponent – it turned out to be none other than Ross.
Speaking previously about his return to the Dales, Mike said: “I’m over the moon to be returning to Emmerdale.
“Ross is a character I’m extremely fond of and I’m excited to explore what he’s been up to over the past five years.
“After seeing the scripts, I can’t wait for the audience to see what’s in store.
“One thing I can say is Ross’s return will no doubt create fireworks.”
Emmerdale airs on ITV1 and is available to watch on ITVX.
