Emmerdale fans are convinced Kim Tate could be getting killed off in a sad murder twist.
Kim (Claire King) has been a staple on the long-running soap since 1989 – and as the man-eater queen of the village, she has played a part in several big storylines.
From her many feuds in the Dales to faking her own death, her time on the show has not been short of drama over the years.
Kim’s also been involved in several famous romances – including her affair and marriage to Frank Tate (Norman Bowler) and her recent romance with Will Taylor (Dean Andrews), who sadly died on Christmas Day last year.

However, fans fear Kim’s time on the soap could be coming to an end soon in a devastating twist. On the soap recently, Celia Daniels (Jaye Griffiths) made her debut as a local farmer who is renting some land from Kim.
However, little does anyone know that vile Celia is actually running a domestic slavery business on the farm, along with son Ray (Joe Absolom).
Their catalogue of crimes extends further still with the pair forcing teenagers April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan) and Dylan Penders (Fred Kettle) into becoming drug couriers to settle an ever-growing debt, whilst April has also faced pressure into sexual exploitation.
She almost uncovered evil Celia’s secret
In Friday’s episode (November 21) though, Kim told Celia she was planning to inspect the land and farm. In a bid to try and buy some time, a startled Celia told Kim that she needed to give at least 24 hours written notice.
Later on though, Kim still showed up anyway leaving Celia livid. Before letting Kim in Celia forced Ray to try and keep the slaves in the attic quiet while she dealt with Kim.
Fans fear Celia would kill Kim
Once inside the messy property, Kim was adamant she wanted to look around but Celia managed to get her to leave. However, with Kim almost clocking the truth, fans reckon Celia could end up murdering the Dales legend.
On an Emmerdale Facebook fan page, one person said: “That look Celia gave Kim! Uh oh she’s in danger.” Someone else added: “If looks could kill.” A third replied: “Exactly I think she’ll try and murder her to shut her up.” Another penned: “Is this Kim’s exit then?”
Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV1 and ITVX at 7.30pm
