Will Taylor (Dean Andrews) was suspicious in tonight’s episode of Emmerdale as Kim Tate (Claire King)…was being nice to him.
Given the two characters have been at war with each other this week, this was actually quite a surprise.
When Kim announced to Will that their marriage had come to an end, he decided to get revenge by essentially being as annoying as possible. He hired Caleb’s (William Ash) solicitor ahead of their upcoming divorce, and wound Kim up by refusing to leave Home Farm.
A few days ago, Will enjoyed an afternoon of drinking beer with Jimmy (Nick Miles). When Kim found them, Will took pleasure in cracking open a beer and allowing it to spray over her new outfit.
Irritated, Kim then invited her financial advisor Peter over and announced they were going for lunch. Kim was dressed to impress and Peter was wearing Will’s shirt, which annoyed him a great deal.
Later that day, Kim was seen chatting to Lydia (Karen Blick). She was curious as to what Kim was achieving by continuously being nasty to Will, and she actually said not a great deal.
Lydia gave Kim food for thought when she said if the petty back and forth carries on between them, Kim will lose Will forever.
Swallowing her pride, Kim called Peter and said she wasn’t interested anymore.
In tonight’s episode, Will wondered if Kim had something on her mind because she wasn’t spending the morning winding him up.
The couple sat down and Will apologised for bringing Kerry (Laura Norton) back to Home Farm, explaining he had just paid her to pretend to be interested in him. He told Kim that they could work through their problems and get back on track, but she worried they were past the point of no return.
After Will’s chat in the café with Jimmy, he returned home and searched for an answer from Kim. She was confident they couldn’t get back together because so much had happened between them, which left a hopeful Will feeling very hurt.
Kim told Will that in order to move forward, she’d like him to move out. Clearly not willing to accept this option, Will reacted with anger and said Kim would eventually come to regret this decision.
But will she?
Has Kim thrown Will out because she’s still so hurt over his betrayal with Rose?
Or has she reached the end of the line with him?
