Patsy Kensit is heading back to Emmerdale as the unforgettable Sadie King – and from everything we’ve heard so far, her return is going to shake the village to its core.

From a huge King family secret to familiar feuds and a slightly different side to the iconic schemer, here’s everything they’ve revealed about Sadie’s long-awaited comeback.

Sadie returns with a huge King family secret
Let’s start with the biggest mystery of all – why is Sadie back?
Laura Shaw has teased that Sadie’s return is driven by a secret that will send shockwaves through the King family.
“The reason that Sadie comes back and the secret that she comes back with is gonna be absolutely shocking. It’s gonna be pretty big and pretty shocking,” Laura teased.
“I think her arrival will be every bit as amazing and brilliant as the first time around.
“Probably the most shocking thing is definitely the reason that brings her back. It’s undoubtedly one of the biggest secrets we’ve ever had within the King family, and it’s gonna be pretty explosive.”
How long will Sadie be back in Emmerdale?
One question fans have been asking ever since Patsy’s return was announced is whether Sadie is back for the long haul.
While she won’t be staying permanently, it sounds like viewers will have several months of drama to enjoy.
“I’ve got a few months of absolute delicious stuff,” Patsy told us. “I can’t say much. I’m embargoed. But I’m here till December, so there’s loads and loads that you can hopefully enjoy. Definitely.”
That means Sadie looks set to remain at the centre of the action for around six months.
