Emmerdale Will Taylor's tragic fate 'sealed' as Kim Tate confirmed as blackmailer

Emmerdale may have teased a tragic end for Will Taylor on Thursday after a clue, as Kim Tate took her revenge.

She went back to her villainous ways as she got revenge on her husband after setting him up in a blackmail twist. She was confirmed to be his tormentor, taking revenge after he cheated on her with Rose Jackson recently.

The character has been tormented with threats and sinister messages for weeks, with them also demanding thousands of pounds in cash. When Will missed the drop-off recently after being injured in an explosion, there was a robbery at Home Farm with his partner Kim's horse being stolen.

As some other items appeared to be taken too he was concerned. Kim was feared to be in danger on Thursday as Will learned she had been kidnapped by the person hassling him.

But when he got to the woods, he found what looked like a body covered in blood. He soon learned it was a dummy, and he then had to follow requests in order to locate his missing wife.

Things came to a head when he was forced to dig a grave, with him fearing Kim had been buried alive. But as he went crashing down into an empty coffin, he was stunned to find out his tormentor was Kim all along.

Putting aside the nice act, she confessed she had been behind the threats and knew all about hi betrayal. He still tried to deny it but she called him out, making it clear she was done with him.

He revealed he had hurt his back and couldn't move, but Kim left him lying in the casket and took off with the money. As she fled the woods, Will shouted out for help but no one was around.

Kim has form for killing off people who wrong her, or at least trying to. This wouldn't be the first time she's left someone for dead, but could it all be a foreshadowing of a shocking death ahead?

With it teased there's a life-or-death situation unfolding around Christmas time, might this involve Will and Kim, and will she take the ultimate revenge? It's not known whether Will almost being buried alive is a clue to a sad demise, but we wouldn't want to be him now that Kim knows everything and has made it clear the battle lines are well and truly drawn between them.
