Speaking to the Mirror about Kim’s return she said: “She wants to spend time with her granddaughter Millie, especially at Christmas, but she’s got a battle on her hands with Millie’s mum Andrea.
“Kim’s son Jamie has split up from Andrea. Kim still wants to see her granddaughter who she loves very much, so it’s not an easy time.”
When asked about Kim’s other great love, men, Claire said: “There might be a little love interest coming along.
“I can’t stay who with, but there aren’t many men left in the village that she hasn’t dated, so you can probably narrow it down.”
