Emmerdale return story for Kerry Wyatt revealed

Emmerdale spoilers follow.

Emmerdale has confirmed that Kerry Wyatt will return to the village next week.

Kerry's loved ones are in for a shock as she reappears with a police escort after getting herself in trouble yet again.

Emmerdale aired an exit storyline for Kerry in November 2022 as she bowed out from the Dales to go and work on a friend's cruise ship.

Kerry's departure came shortly after she'd discovered that her late partner Al Chapman had been cheating on her in the months leading up to his fatal shooting.

Next week, Kerry's daughter Amy sets a date for her wedding to boyfriend Matty Barton.

The couple are then left stunned when PC Swirling arrives to drop off Kerry, who is dressed up as Cher following her work as an impersonator on the ship.

Swirling leaves Kerry to share the story of how her fiancé has falsely accused her of stealing.

Amy isn't impressed that Kerry is caught up in chaos as usual, so there's a heated argument between mother and daughter.

Keen to get back on track, Kerry protests that she didn't commit the theft and is back to be a good mother to her family. Can Kerry keep her promise?

In real life, Laura Norton has reprised the role of Kerry after taking maternity leave. Laura and her partner Mark Jordon welcomed their second child together, a daughter called Ronnie, in October 2022.

Speaking about her return, Laura told Digital Spy: "It feels amazing to be back. They've eased me back in very gently. I don't know if it was deliberate, but I've had one day a week, then two days a week, then three. So I feel like they've given me a nice opportunity to settle in.

"I had my first couple of days where I was constantly checking my phone just to see how the kids are and if they've had a nap. I'm starting slowly to just go: 'Everything's fine'. I've come home and they're very happy and very well rested and well fed.

"Now I can just be present and do a good job – that's where I'm up to now."

She added: "Every department made it very easy for me – the script, the story, the writing and then the costume. As soon as you put Kerry's clothes on, it's just like: 'Ah, there she is'.

"I've had a long time off work. I was worried that I couldn't do it anymore. You start going: 'Can I walk and talk at the same time? Can I still act?'

"But I felt very blessed when I opened the script and realised how Kerry was coming back and it did make it very easy. The lines are brilliant and the costumes are ridiculously horrendous."

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
