Emmerdale’s Claire King has finally spoken out about the potential for a Tate family resurgence in the soap.
With the Tate numbers dwindling, only Thomas Tate – Gabby Thomas and Jamie Tate’s son – remains, aside from Kim, portrayed by show legend Claire.
Yet, the star has hinted at the exciting possibility of a Tate comeback. She revealed in a chat with the Mirror and other media: “It would be an interesting spin [to have a new Tate – or an old one return]. I don’t know who they would get out the woodwork, but no doubt there’s some out there. There seem to be many Dingles that keep showing up.”
Speculation among fans is rife that this could signal the return of a fan-favourite Tate. With Jamie still linked to the village through his son Thomas with Gabby, rumours are swirling about his possible comeback.
Earlier in the year, Alexander Lincoln, who played Jamie, commented on the chance of returning: “Honestly, I loved it there and I love everyone there. There’s always the possibility if they’ll have me of going back. But right now, I’ve got quite a lot of stuff on and I really want to explore lots of different avenues of work.

“There’s a few other projects coming up over the next couple of years which I’m quite excited about, but we’ll see. I do miss the farm, for sure! I miss my on-screen mum [Claire King, who plays Kim Tate] and everyone else! Coming back would mean going back with a bang for sure, if they would have me. I’m always very excited about the possibility of going back at some point.”
