Emmerdale: Mary comes out to Kim
In tonight’s episode (Monday, June 13) Mary and Kim went for a chat at Home Farm.
After Kim asked if Mary had been with anyone since her late husband, she was quick to change the subject.
Soon Mary admitted she moved to Emmerdale to fix things with Rhona, make a fresh start and be more open.
She then told a supportive Kim that she is gay.
Mary explained how growing up there was no representation, so she tried to put it to the back of her mind, got married and had Rhona.
