She is known as the iconic face of the Dales, none other than Emmerdale's Kim Tate. In the small village, she has made quite a few enemies due to her sharp tongue and involvement in heated arguments with her rivals. Recently, she has been clashing with Rose Jackson, who is Will's ex and has been trying to gain control of Home Farm and push Kim out. There have also been some fiery exchanges with Ruby Fox-Miligan, whose insults are both witty and scathing.
Despite being able to handle and dish out insults, there is one word that you won't hear being used against Kim - 'old'. In an interview with Woman's Weekly magazine, her co-star Emma Atkins, who plays Charity Dingle, has made it clear that she does not tolerate ageist insults and kindly removes any references to age in the scripts. Claire King, who plays Kim, completely agrees with this and believes that comments about age should not be made in the same way that comments about race or color would not be acceptable.
At 62 years old, Claire still feels the same as she did when she joined the show at 27, except for some creakiness. She has more doctor's appointments now, but she is still enjoying life and doesn't think about her age. This is partly because she loves playing Kim Tate so much. She believes that Kim is the best character on TV, with a perfect balance of softness, hardness, and ruthlessness.
When she first joined the show, Claire was only 27 years old. Life with Kim Tate is never quiet, as she attracts a lot of attention from fans who adore her character. People often approach Claire on the street and tell her how much they love her and her role as the infamous Kim Tate. But she has no plans of retiring anytime soon and is still enjoying playing such a strong and dynamic character.
Currently, Kim is in the middle of a drama as Caleb Miligan plans to build an empire to rival hers. Meanwhile, there is trouble closer to home as Kim and Will dump Rose Jackson in a remote location and she goes missing. Both Kim and Will are suspicious of each other and know that either one of them is capable of killing Rose. The search for Rose becomes even more urgent when Dawn reveals that her son Evan, who has leukemia, needs a bone marrow transplant and Rose is a potential match.
In a twist revealed on Friday's episode, it is discovered that Dawn made up the story about Evan needing a transplant and has a plan to take down Will. As the truth about Rose's disappearance is about to be revealed, the question remains - will this lead to the downfall of Will or Kim? Only time will tell.
