Kim Tate (Claire King) has been struggling with the weight of being involved in Craig’s (Ben Addis) death – shocking, given what she’s got up to over the years in Emmerdale without an ounce of remorse.
But what’s more shocking is that Will (Dean Andrews) doesn’t even know.
Despite Will finally being the man to equal Kim, with whom she’s already committed the odd few crimes, she hasn’t told him this biggest secret.
But having revealed the truth to Lydia (Karen Blick) and then having begun to spiral under the significance of her actions, Kim finally confesses her involvement in the app developer’s death to Will.
Kim confesses again
She tells him she was there when Craig died – though it was an accident, she covered up her presence with the help of Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) in a bid to shift any blame from Sam Dingle (James Hooton).
Will is left open-mouthed and feeling betrayed at her revelation.
She tries to explain the chain of events, but Will is hurt by the secrecy and burdened by the truth. Kim begs him to keep it a secret, and now he has a decision to make.
As it all becomes too much for the Home Farm matriarch, Kim hits the bottle in a big way. In a frightening moment, Will discovers Kim slumped over Dawn’s (Olivia Bromley) birthing pool, completely out of it.
He struggles to rouse her, but when he does, she is violently ill. Is keeping this secret killing her?
