Emmerdale fans are convinced they’ve worked out who Kim Tate’s new lover will be – and it’s a Dales legend who could be coming back from the dead.
Emmerdale enthusiasts believe they’ve figured out who Kim Tate’s next romantic partner will be – and it’s a surprising comeback.
Soap superstar Kim (played by Claire King) first graced the Dales in 1989, swiftly becoming one of the programme’s most memorable characters. Claire decided to depart in 1999 to pursue different ventures.
Yet, two decades later, she made a triumphant return to the ITV soap. Over her tenure on the show, her character has been embroiled in some of its most significant plots.
From steamy affairs to even staging her own demise, her stint in the Dales has been anything but dull. Particularly now, as Kim’s recent months in the village have been fraught with upheaval.
She and her spouse Will Taylor (portrayed by Dean Andrews) called it quits after Kim confessed to blackmailing Will following his tryst with his former lover Rose (Christine Tremarco) earlier this year. Kim has since requested a divorce from Will – but he is intent on ruining Kim, reports Leeds Live.

Engaging in battle with his ex-wife, Will is resolved to claim half of Kim’s wealth – despite their prenuptial agreement. Naturally, Kim has declared war to protect her assets.
She also seemed to have a fling with her financial advisor Peter – much to the irritation of Will who ended up being punched by Peter. However, fans are now convinced that one of Kim’s past lovers could be returning to rekindle their relationship with Kim.
Fans are abuzz with intrigue about a potential return to Emmerdale, theorising that Graham Foster (portrayed by Andrew Scarborough) could make an electric comeback.

Garnering adoration from viewers since his debut in 2017, Graham’s demise in 2020 sent shockwaves throughout the fan base after a gripping ‘whodunnit’ plot. Nonetheless, fans are now speculating on his dramatic return to heal Kim’s broken heart.
Engaging in fervent discussion on an Emmerdale fan page, one keen observer posed the question: “So who do you think could be Kim’s next man?” Replies poured in with enthusiasm – one ardent fan exclaimed: “Graham!” Joining the speculation, another insisted: “I’d love Graham to come back.”
Sentiments swelled as a kindred spirit mused: “There’s always hope that he didn’t die.” With reference to TV history, another remarked: “You never know they did it with Bobby in Dallas,” while yet another declared, brimming with anticipation: “Graham will rise from the dead.”
Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV1 and ITVX at 7.30pm
