Fans were stunned last month as an unexpected flashback scene revealed that Kim had a secret child in 1999, who was put up for adoption shortly after she was born.<\/p>\n

The daughter is none other than DS Ramsden<\/a>, who been plotting trouble for Kim ever since she arrived in the Dales during the summer.<\/p>\n

Claire King, who plays Kim, recently promised that her character will discover the truth in an unmissable Halloween episode.<\/p>\n

Sharing more details in an exclusive Inside Soap<\/a> chat, Sophie teased: “It will be a showdown of quite epic proportions!<\/p>\n

“We’ve seen that Thea is very much her mother’s daughter \u2013 so we’re setting up that expectation for the viewers when these two women collide and the truth is revealed!”<\/p>\n

She continued: “Halloween will absolutely be a peak in that story, but their relationship is only going to get more complicated.<\/p>\n

“We’ll see Kim in a really different way, as we’ll be exploring a part of her history which the audience really has no knowledge of.”<\/p>\n

Emmerdale has yet to reveal who Thea’s father is<\/a>, with Claire recently suggesting that there are a couple of possible options from Kim’s past.<\/p>\n

Discussing the unresolved mysteries, Sophie added: “The audience has got so many questions right now! As the story evolves, we’re absolutely going to be answering those and there\u2019ll be some surprises along the way as well.”<\/p>\n
