Kim Tate, the symbol of power in Emmerdale, faces the biggest turning point of her life.

Just after announcing she’d amended her will to leave her estate to Lydia Dingle, she receives devastating news: Lydia and Sam inadvertently caused the death of her beloved horse, Ice, in a chaotic incident at the farm.

In the scene where Kim kneels beside Ice’s body, tears mingling with the snow, viewers see the “Home Farm Queen” finally break down.

Betrayal from those closest to her brings her back to her cold instincts: “If trust is a mistake, I won’t make it again.”

The big secret revealed by Claire King (the actress playing Kim) is even more shocking: Kim discovers she has a long-lost child, and that child may be living right here in Emmerdale.

With blood ties and hatred intertwined, Kim Tate prepares to fight back – no more tears, only power and revenge.
