Emmerdale's Kim prepares to break big news about unexpected new love interest
When Lydia Dingle (Karen Blick) spotted her good friend and employer Kim Tate (Claire King) in the cafe in Emmerdale recently she also spotted something else. Kim was looking at messages on her phone, and Lydia – who knows her very well – realised that Kim had a new man in her life.
Obviously she wanted to know more, but Kim wasn't giving much away although we've previously seen her texting someone called Eddie. Lydia guessed it was someone connected with horses, as we all know Kim loves horses, but Kim said no. In fact, her new beau is a cosmetic surgeon.
That's bound to come in handy if she ever decides she needs a few tweakments, but for the time being Lydia was pleased to see her friend looking happier than she has in a while.
On Christmas Day, Kim's husband Will Taylor (Dean Andrews) died unexpectedly of a heart attack.
His death came at the end of a turbulent time for the couple who were daggers-drawn after Will got a bit too close to his ex-wife. Revenge and counter-revenge ensued, with Kim at one point staging a blackmail plot against Will and pushing him into an open grave in the woods.
Will then joined in a plan to destroy Kim and take all of her money, but he changed his mind when he realised he was still in love with her.
As Will collapsed to the floor on Christmas Day, Kim refused to believe his life was really in danger and it was new arrival Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) who pointed out that Will was having a heart attack. In emotional scenes Kim desperately tried to help her husband, but it was too late.
Kim was distraught, as was Will's daughter Dawn (Olivia Bromley). After her father's death Dawn accused Kim of killing him and got her arrested. She also drugged her with ketamine. More Trending
Eventually Dawn came to realise that Will's death wasn't down to Killer Kim, and Kim reassured her that she thought of her as a daughter. To seal the deal she persuaded Dawn to give up her job at the vet's and work for Home Farm Estates instead.

Since then, Kim has been on hand for advice about the Dawn/Billy (Jay Kontzle)/Joe triangle and the two women have been getting on fairly well.
But the usually fearless Kim is definitely worried in upcoming episodes when she realises that it's time to tell the rest of the family about new boyfriend Eddie.

Danny Dyer makes daughter Dani gasp with saucy honeymoon confession
Just back from her honeymoon, Dani Dyer was left speechless when her dad shared a saucy confession about his honeymoon with her mum. Danny Dyer has left daughter Dani horrified with his X-rated honeymoon confession. The Eastenders star left daughter Dani Dyer mortified this week after sharing an X-rated confession about his honeymoon with wife Jo - just as Dani returned from her own! On the latest episode of their podcast Live And Let Dyers, the Celebrity Big Brother winner opened up about her romantic getaway with new husband and West Ham star Jarrod Bowen while proud dad Danny managed to overshare in true Dyer fashion. Back from her sun-soaked trip to Lake Como, Dani revealed the newlyweds were hit with gloomy weather but still made the most of their honeymoon bubble. 'The weather was terrible, it rained for three days,' she tells Danny on the pod. 'But we were very lucky, because it always stopped raining when we went for lunch and for dinners and stuff.' While the couple had hoped for some sunbathing time, Dani admitted they swapped tanning for telly, champagne and baths. 'We just could never sunbathe, and there's not really much to do there,' she added. 'So, we just binged the whole series of MobLand. We ate and I'd just drink champagne and have loads of baths!' Still, the loved-up newlyweds enjoyed the downtime before Bowen heads back to football duties. 'It was actually so nice because obviously I was in such wedding blues - it was so nice to go away for a few days and just have lay ins and spend time together,' Dani says. 'It was just so nice. We was just so happy the whole time.' But it wasn't long before Danny spun the convo onto his honeymoon and things got very a little too honest. 'To be fair, you shouldn't really be getting out of bed a lot in your honeymoon because me and your mother ended up in Florence, and you know, we was appalling!' Danny said Leaving his daughter stunned. 'I mean, honestly, I look back on it and I think, 'f****** hell! How on Earth did I manage to get in those sorts of positions!'' Clearly shocked but cracking up at her father's oversharing, Dani responded: 'Oh, you're disgusting!' Danny fired back: 'What do you mean disgusting? There was two people sharing their love. Them days are long gone now!'

EastEnders fans slam jarring BBC couple who were not a match
Zack Hudson and Whitney Dean were a prominent couple on the show who planned to get married before Whitney discovered her partner's unfaithfulness. Things famously came to a head at their wedding ceremony when Britney revealed Zack had cheated on Whitney. A furious Whitney then attacked Lauren and Zack before storming out of the registry office, according to Digital Spy. EastEnders fans slam 'jarring' former couple who 'weren't a match' on the BBC show Taking on the EastEnders official Reddit page, the original poster asked: "Did anyone actually like Zack and Whitney being together?" Fans of the BBC soap opera were quick to express their dislike of the relationship, with one user writing: "Always jarred a bit for me - the storylines about Peach, the fostering, Britney etc were good, but as a couple they felt a bit flung together. Which was probably the point IDK." Another agreed, penning: "Yeah, I felt the same. I wasn't keen on them as a couple (despite them both producing some good work together) and felt they weren't a match, either personality or chemistry-wise. "But this was by design and what they wanted to portray (given that Shona has known she was going for most - if not all - of that time)." One user said: "I did feel like their relationship came out of nowhere. I don't remember them interacting at all, and then she suddenly had a crush on him. "I didn't really like Zack until the Peach storyline, I think he supported her as best he could, and he seemed like he genuinely cared about her. "I think if Shona hadn't wanted to leave, they would have stayed together. They seemed like a solid couple before the Britney stuff, and I thought they were good together." Another fan added: "No, because I was annoyed that they didn't pair Zack and Sam together. All that build up and nothing, what a waste of time that was." Another echoed this dislike, writing: "Never. Zack was a playboy, and Whitney was a hypocrite with Lauren after she got with Joey while she was in rehab. Recommended Reading: "The dig at her being an addict just before her and Zack got together was uncalled for, too." However, one fan went against the grain, telling the OP: "Yes, I liked them together and was annoyed when he cheated with Lauren. "I'm hoping they don't put him and Lauren together. I don't know why, but I feel he could get with Zoe when she returns to the square"
