Emmerdale fans are all saying the same thing as Caleb Miligan begins his war against Kim Tate
EMMERDALE fans are all saying the same thing after Caleb Miligan began his war against Kim Tate.
The businessman – who is played by actor Will Ash in the ITV soap – is the secret child of Kim’s late husband Frank Tate and Faith Dingle.
He wants revenge on her and to take Home Farm back after she stole it from his family.
Tonight, Caleb revealed to his son Nicky that he’d sent Kim a little surprise – one that viewers will remember from more than quarter of a century ago.
Returning to Home Farm, Kim found a letter from Caleb’s lawyers, petitioning to re-open Frank’s will.
Kim told Will that she was worried, adding: “It’s not as straight forward as you may think.
“I wasn’t in the best place when Frank died. It was stressful, and large parts of Tate Holdings were left to me.
“Chris and Zoe were both shareholders and they weren’t the sort of people you wanted to do business with.
“They were a mess, the pair of them and while they did everything to run the business into the ground, I had to look after myself, which I did.
“I removed money, while they were distracted with their affairs and their feuds and their violent tantrums. Call it a rainy day fund. When I left everyone everyone thought I was running away with a bit of stolen cash I’d buried.
“But the point is when Chris died and Zoe left, I retrieved everything I’d squirrelled away and it was a lot of money. So this person sniffing around the will – I don’t need someone opening closet doors Will.”
But as Will questioned whether there was an issue because of the will being sorted, Kim re-visited a storyline from a long time ago.
“There’s a clause,” she told Will as Nicky listened in.
And later Nicky told his dad what he’d heard about how Frank Tate put a clause into his will to ensure that all future heirs of the Tate family would benefit from the family millions.
But it wasn’t enough for Caleb – he told him he wants it all.
However Kim had a plan to track down the mystery heir and assembled a list of all people from Frank’s past.
And she has a way to ensure the heir gets nothing.
“I don’t mind them tying this chancer up in knots for a while but in the end you can’t deal with people like this by negotiating,” she told her husband.
“I wasn’t born yesterday. I’m going to hide so much money, so quickly that by the time he gets past this lawyer, there will be nothing left for him.”
But fans predict disaster and think she will have a fight on her hands.
One wrote: “We do need Caleb, Joe, Kim, Jamie, Nicky, and Cain showdown.”
A second said: “I really can’t wait for Kim to shaft Caleb and Nicky then Cain to teach him a lesson for pretending to be his half brother.”
Another added: “Oh dear Kim, not a happy bunny with Frank will.”
