Katie Hill calls for the return of two major Emmerdale legends for tragic story

Katie Hill calls for the return of two major Emmerdale legends for tragic story

Metro23-05-2025
Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill) is facing a difficult time ahead in Emmerdale as she's given a diagnosis of cervical cancer.
Already living with a condition called Fanconi anaemia, which could mean she'll have a shorter than average lifespan, Sarah has made the decision to have IVF so she can become a mother.
She previously thought she was pregnant, but while his turned out to be a false alarm it left her realising that she desperately wants to be a mum before it's too late. She decided to look into having IVF, and it was at an appointment about the IVF that a possible problem was spotted.
'The doctor sees some inflamed cells and she gets called back in for a biopsy. She then gets called to an appointment and is told she's got cancer,' Katie Hill told us.
'She's trying to stay positive, she thinks everything is going to work out. She's obviously dealt with cancer growing up, she's been through so much she's quite good at handling stuff like that as much as it hurts to hear.
'She takes the route of 'I'm going to focus on having this baby and the IVF,' so that's where she's at with her mental state. She just wants to have this baby and get the cancer out the way.'
Another reason that Sarah doesn't want to confide in anyone is that she knows that they would advise her to forget about the IVF, Katie explained:
'Deep down she knows she's not doing the right thing by not telling anyone because she knows if she did, they'd say hold off on the IVF now, let's sort the cancer. But she doesn't want to do that, so for now she's happy to keep it to herself.'
Having been at Emmerdale for eight years, Katie reflected that she has grown up on the show.
'It's funny because when I came into the show, I was the kid on set,' she recalled. 'I wouldn't get involved in all the adult conversations and now Emma [Atkins] is my best friend. She's a 50-year-old woman and is one of my bestest friends. More Trending
'I know we all say it's like a family, but it really is. If I ever need help with anything I've got someone to turn to. It's been nice. The Dingle WhatsApp group chat, that's always going off. It's called 12 Angry Dingles after that storyline with Lydia (Karen Blick). We're a really tight bunch and I adore them all.'

There are two Emmerdale legends that Katie would love to see back in the Dales, however, and that's Charley Webb and Kelvin Fletcher, who played Sarah's parents Debbie Dingle and Andy Sugden. Charley left the show in 2021.
'Funnily enough I never met Kelvin Fletcher,' Katie told us, as Kelvin was last seen in the show in 2016.

'Obviously it would be great if he came back and we got a chance to explore their relationship. And obviously Charley, she was my person here for so many years. She really took me under her wing when I joined the show so it would be so nice to work with them both. I'd like that.'

Katie Price sends pointed message to ex Peter Andre just hours after branding him ‘pathetic'

KATIE Price has shared a pointed message just hours after branding ex husband Peter Andre 'pathetic' and claiming he 'banned her' from daughter Princess' 18th birthday party. The 46-year-old hit out on the latest episode of her podcast The Katie Price Show, which she hosts with sister Sophie, 35. 3 Katie has made her feelings clear after claiming she was banned from Princess' birthday party Credit: Getty 3 She branded ex-husband Peter 'pathetic' in a furious rant on her podcast Credit: Splash 3 Katie suffered a social media blunder when she wished Princess happy birthday two days early Credit: Getty Katie, who shares Princess and son Junior, 20, with first husband Peter, 52, later took to Instagram to make her feelings on the matter very clear. She posted a message that read: 'I love my daughter.' The former glamour model then followed with another with the words: 'My daughter will always be my little princess.' Katie didn't hold back as she discussed being left off of the guest list for a party to celebrate Princess hitting the milestone - which will feature in the rising star's upcoming reality show. She said: "Princess is now officially an adult, so Mummy and Princess can now go out together, if certain people would let her be seen with me." She went on: "Everyone knows she's doing this documentary - and I'm not in it. Certain people don't think it's good for Princess to be seen with me. Certain people that used to look after me." Sophie chipped in: "You aren't on brand Katie. You are too risky Katie that's why." Katie then said: "It's pathetic. I'm her mother. "I'm just saying, Princess was like 'I'm having a party'. And I wasn't invited because it was for 'filming.'" Sophie added: "Oh of course it was! I wonder what restaurant did that for free." Continuing the rant, Katie said: "The fact is there's stuff my daughter is doing and I'm not allowed to be seen at any of it. Mortifying moment Katie Price gets daughter Princess' birthday WRONG and has to delete tribute "Certain people who are filming Princess' documentary used to do my filming. It's fine, it's just there's always conflict of interest. People will cotton on to this. So we do have to do something for Princess' 18th.' It comes after Katie suffered a mortifying blunder when she posted a birthday tribute to Princess two days before her big day. She was forced to swiftly delete the post, before uploading another on the correct date.

Katie Price's cryptic comment after slamming Peter Andre's Princess party ban

Katie Price left a cryptic comment on social media after her outburst as ex-husband Peter Andre celebrated their daughter Princess' birthday without the former glamour model Katie Price has shared another cryptic comment after hitting out at her ex-husband, Peter Andre, after their daughter's milestone birthday. Princess Andre celebrated turning 18 earlier this week, but mum-of-five Katie was less than impressed with her ex-husband's party decision. Now, in the aftermath, the former glamour model, 47, has posted a message to her Instagram Stories. Sharing a post by a page titled Positivity Flow Daily, the image of a note in the sand next to a sandcastle read: "My daughters will always be my little princesses." ‌ The image, right beside the water, also had footsteps in the sand and two tiaras. Seashells were positioned at the bottom of the sentence. ‌ The upload comes after she ranted at her ex-husband, whom she met on I'm A Celebrity, and his team for making her keep her distance during Princess's birthday celebrations. Speaking to sister Sophie on their The Katie Price Show podcast, Katie revealed her dismay. As she started the recent episode with a happy birthday message to her eldest daughter, Katie said: "Princess is now officially an adult so mummy and Princess can now go out together. If certain people would let her be seen with me." Sophie then added: "I noticed in her 18th birthday pictures she was wearing the shoes you bought her for Christmas." A shocked Katie added: "Oh, did she? I love that." Katie went on: "Everyone knows she's doing this documentary - and I'm not in it. Certain people don't think it's good for Princess to be seen with me. Certain people that used to look after me." As her sister said she isn't "on brand" and is "too risky," Katie snapped: "It's pathetic. I'm her mother. It's sad." ‌ "It's so sad," she continued. "When certain people who used to look after me are now looking after..." Katie was then interrupted by sister Sophie who told her sibling to 'save it for another day.' Katie was seemingly referring to Peter Andre and the former couple's old PR team, who are now managing the singer and their children Junior and Princess. "I'm just saying," Katie couldn't help but continue. "Princess was like 'I'm having a party'. And I wasn't invited because it was for 'filming.'" In a sarcastic response, Sophie replied: "Oh of course it was! I wonder what restaurant did that for free." ‌ Sophie then asked if the pair were going to have their own celebration, calling it a "real" 18th. But Katie, clearly annoyed, went on: "The fact is there's stuff my daughter is doing and I'm not allowed to be seen at any of it. "Certain people who are filming Princess' documentary used to do my filming. It's fine, it's just there's always a conflict of interest. People will cotton on to this. So we do have to do something for Princess' 18th."
