Fans have already started to speculate who could be behind it, suspecting Gabby Thomas, Will Taylor and even Kim’s son Jamie.

But some fans have come up with a theory that Kim’s step grandson Joe Tate, who she tried to have killed, could be back in the village to get revenge.

What happened to Joe Tate in Emmerdale?

In 2017, Joe Tate returned to Emmerdale. By October 2018, he had fallen for Debbie Dingle and the two were planning to get married.

However Kim had just been released from prison and ordered Graham Foster to kill Joe.

But Graham had been a father figure to Joe and wanted to help him flee. When Debbie’s dad Cain discovered he left Debbie at the altar, he found Joe and punched him.

Joe fell and hit his head on a rock and it looked as if Cain had killed him.

Later Graham was seen sobbing and viewers were unsure if Joe had died, or if he had survived and left the village.

Five months later, Kim tried to find out who was making withdrawals from an offshore account.

She soon discovered it was Joe and he was alive and staying in Monte Carlo. Kim confronted Graham and Graham warned her Joe had already moved and not to look for him.

Could Joe be back for revenge on Kim?
