Kim fearful in Emmerdale as DS Ramsden drops bombshell over Jimmy’s death

Thea is Kim’s secret daughter (Picture: ITV) DS Thea Ramsden (Chelsea Edge) shared an update about Vinny Dingle’s (Bradley Johnson) involvement in Jimmy King (Nick Miles) and Dawn Taylor’s (Olivia Bromley) deaths in Emmerdale today, and it was bad news. It was revealed a few weeks ago that Vinny was driving the car that Jimmy swerved prior to the crash. Vinny was on the phone to Gabby Thomas (Rosie Bentham) while driving and because he was distracted, he failed to realise that his car was moving across the road. Vinny kept this a secret, but his guilt eventually became too much to deal with. He confessed to Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler) and then Joe Tate (Ned Porteous). Nicola reacted to the news by calling the police and reporting Vinny, while Joe immediately told Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle), knowing that he’d attack Vinny in the aftermath.
