ver since Joe Tate made his Emmerdale return, fans have been shocked at just how much Kim trusts him. But it seems she has finally opened her eyes.
Last night’s episode (January 23) saw Charity’s words get through to Kim when she warned her about Joe. Up until now, Kim has been grateful for Joe’s presence and has even put him back in the business.
One person who never forgave Joe is Charity. And so, after she gave Kim some advice – the old Home Farm icon came back. And Kim bugged Joe’s room.
Joe Tate has a secret in Emmerdale
We know Joe has been hiding something ever since he returned. Last night he was forced to confess to Dawn what was going on.
After she found him unconscious in his car, he told her that he needed painkillers to deal with headaches he gets as a result of the head injury Cain gave him years ago.
Dawn tried to make him see that he was addicted to the drugs. So in true Joe fashion, he threatened to tell Billy that they had slept together. But is that really what’s wrong with him?
But now, as Kim has bugged his room, it seems we may get our answers sometime soon. And she may find out about him and Dawn. However, fans are just glad to have the old Kim back – it’s about time!
Fans hail Queen Kim’s return
For a while, we began to worry that Kim truly had gone too soft. But slowly, over the last few months, we have seen the return of the Home Farm queen.
And as fans expressed on social media, they couldn’t be happier. Especially if it means Billy finds out about Dawn and Joe…
One wrote: “I knew Queen Kim wasn’t stupid! Can’t wait to see what she is going to do next. Scrounger Dawn’s time is up!”
Another added: “Go Kim. I knew she wasn’t daft.”
A third penned: “OMG is Kim going to find out about Joe and Dawn already? And does this mean we will know what’s really wrong with Joe??”
So exactly what will Kim find? And how would she react if she realises Joe has been keeping a secret? Fans have already pointed out that his death may have been foreshadowed..
