Emmerdale fans are convinced they know who Kim Tate will be embarking on a new romance with after she split from husband Will Taylor on the ITV soap

Emmerdale enthusiasts are speculating that Kim Tate, portrayed by Claire King, might find new love after her split from Will Taylor (Dean Andrews) due to his infidelity.

In a dramatic scene last week, the mistress of Home Farm demanded that Will dig his own grave after she discovered his affair with his ex-wife Rose (Christina Tremarco). Despite Will’s desperate attempts to appease her, Kim was unyielding and commanded him to pack his bags.

Later at Home Farm, Kim faced her own setback when Will refused to sign papers that would have reinstated her control over her business interests.

“I have given you everything,” an enraged Kim told Will. “I have done things for you that would keep most people awake at night.

“And in return you have lied, cheated, you have stolen. You can sit there as long as you like listing every mistake that I have ever done, but I have never once betrayed you,” reports Leeds Live.

She added: “Nothing matters anymore, we are done and we both know it.”

As she pushed the documents toward Will, he defiantly said, “No!” before walking away. Things have been hostile for the couple ever since, with Kim insisting they get a divorce.

The pair have been at each other’s throats, with Kim even seeking legal counsel out of concern that Will might attempt to strip her of her assets.

Yet, in a twist during Tuesday’s episode, Kim spent the night with her solicitor and made sure Will knew about it.

“Is this you getting your own back?” Will queried, only for Kim to retort: “Oh please as if I am that petty. Anyway, you were the one that cheated.”

“Yeah once,” Will concurred. “But I didn’t go back for an action replay, did I?”
