On Wednesday, Emmerdale actress Claire King made an appearance on This Morning to talk about her character's upcoming Christmas storyline. Fans have been eagerly anticipating the reveal of a top-secret twist involving Kim Tate, and Claire was just as excited to share the details. However, she was hesitant to spill the beans, as she feared the consequences from her soap bosses.
In the interview with hosts Dermot O'Leary and Josie Gibson, Claire teased that there are some huge scenes ahead for her character and her cheating husband, Will Taylor. But she stopped short of revealing too much, playfully admitting that she didn't want to risk getting in trouble with the higher-ups. "I'm desperate to tell you," she laughed, "but I'd be shot!"
As for the current storyline, Claire shared that it has been a bit challenging for her as an actress, but she loves working with her co-star Dean, who plays Will. She also hinted at some difficult subject matter, but couldn't go into further detail.
The main focus of the Christmas storyline is Kim and Will's plan to renew their vows. After their recent reunion, the couple seems to be stronger than ever. However, fans know that their relationship has been through its fair share of struggles. Earlier this year, Kim discovered that Will had cheated on her with his ex-wife, Rose Jackson. In response, she made him believe that he was being blackmailed. Little does she know, Will has been plotting his revenge against her all along.
When asked about how Kim will react when she finds out the truth, Claire teased, "I think she will want retaliation very quickly." It seems that this revelation will have major consequences for the couple and their future together.
There has been speculation that the culmination of this plot could mean the end of Kim's time in the Dales. However, Claire revealed that her current contract runs until June, and if offered a new deal, she would be excited to consider it. So, it looks like the soap icon will be sticking around for a while.
