Emmerdale Kim Tate death fears as actress makes 'last ever Christmas' admission

Claire King has hinted that her character, Kim Tate, might be marking her final Christmas on Emmerdale.

Kim, the formidable matriarch of the Tate family, has become a soap legend over her thirty plus year tenure. Despite a seemingly blissful marriage to Will Taylor, their relationship took a hit when Will was unfaithful with his ex, Rose.

The situation further spiralled with the arrival of Peter, Kim's former solicitor and ex-lover, who has been conspiring with Will and an unknown accomplice to topple Kim. The couple is set to renew their vows on Christmas Day, a scheme orchestrated by Peter, with Will under manipulation to publicly humiliate Kim in front of their loved ones.

However, it remains uncertain whether he will follow through with the plan. During her appearance on This Morning, Claire gave a glimpse into what lies ahead for her character.

She shared: "It's been a little bit challenging with this storyline. It's been lovely because I love working with Dean. So that's been fantastic but it's been a little bit hard because of the subject matter. But I can't go into that! I'm desperate to tell you but I'll be shot.

"Will's plotting with Peter, who was Kim's financial adviser. I don't think he is anymore, I haven't seen him in a while. But there's someone else pulling the strings behind. Kim had a little dalliance with Peter to get back at Will, who had a fling with his ex-wife. It's all very interwoven and very complicated - but there's someone behind the scenes who is pulling the strings and they want to give the surprise on Christmas Day. Kim's looking forward to Christmas Day because she's going to have all her family back, they're going to renew their wedding vows - so it's all going to be really lovely."
