Emmerdale's Katie and Declan Macey have recently managed to get their marriage back on track following a variety of troubles, but fans know that a big secret could still blow the couple apart.
Next week's episodes see Declan (Jason Merrells) treat Katie by buying her a racehorse, but what she doesn't know is that he's merely acting out of guilt after sleeping with Charity Sharma last month.
Here, Sammy Winward - who plays Katie - chats about the current state of play between the Maceys, and how her character would react if she learned of Declan's betrayal…
Katie and Steve come up with the initial idea of buying a racehorse. How does that come about?
"I think Katie is getting a bit bored with just working at the stables, because she can't do everything fully with the way she is physically after the mineshaft accident. Steve senses this boredom, so he tells Katie that they can embark on a little adventure together by buying a racehorse.
"Katie is really excited about this. She doesn't know anything about racehorses, but Steve promises to teach her all about it because it's what he used to do. She'd be part of a syndicate so she wouldn't own the horse outright, but she's still really pleased.
"Katie sees this as a bit of an investment. However, even if it doesn't make money, it'll still be fun as they'll be getting dressed up and having days at the races."
Declan has some misgivings about the idea. Why is that?
"I'm not sure - it's actually quite difficult to work out! I think there's a bit of jealousy, because Declan sees how close Katie and Steve are. Declan is also a character who always has to outdo other people, especially when it comes to money. He says that he doesn't want to own one twelfth of a horse, he wants to own the whole thing!"
So then Declan cuts Steve and his middlemen out of the deal and buys Katie the racehorse himself…
"Yes, Declan thinks this will make Katie very happy. When he goes on to tell her that he's bought the whole horse, at first Katie is very annoyed because she knows Steve is going to be upset. The whole thing was Steve's idea in the first place, after all!
"But then the girly side of Katie kicks in. She's delighted, although she does definitely feel very bad about hurting Steve."
We'll also see that Bernice is getting slightly jealous of Katie, won't we?
"Yes, I think anybody would be jealous if their boyfriend or partner was spending loads more time with another female. If Declan was spending all this time with Bernice, I know Katie would be jealous, so it is just human nature.
"I can understand why Bernice would be jealous, but I don't think there's any reason for her to be. Katie and Steve just genuinely get along well and Katie enjoys spending time with him."
Is guilt Declan's main motivation for buying this racehorse?
"Oh, absolutely. Even though Declan thinks they were on a break when he slept with Charity, he hasn't been honest with her. That means he has to do these little things to ease his guilt. Luckily for Declan, he's got a lot of money, which he can use to make himself feel better!"
How do you think Katie will react when she finally finds out about Declan and Charity? It has to happen at some point!
"It's definitely going to be big. Katie is going to be absolutely furious. I think part of her will feel that it's partly her own fault because she left Declan and pushed him away so much. Katie will definitely see that side of things.
"However, despite all that, Declan shouldn't have slept with her. Charity is one of Katie's friends."
Declan has also gone to great lengths to cover it up…
"Yeah, there are too many lies, so Katie will be absolutely livid. I'm sure she'll also want to deal with Charity. Chas also knows about what happened, so I think that'll be another major thing for Katie - the fact that Chas has known the whole time.
"Myself and Lucy Pargeter have been struggling with those scenes because we think that you would absolutely tell your best friend! That will be a big thing for Katie because Chas is her best mate."
Would you say things have improved between Katie and Declan?
"Things definitely seem to be working out for them at the moment. In all of the scripts recently, we seem to be snogging or in embraces! I think the writers are really trying to show that they're very happy.
"Things are feeling fresh again, which is lovely, but that usually means there's something else just around the corner!"
Do you have any interest in horse riding in real life?
"Yeah, I'm very confident on a horse. Technically I'm probably not amazing like Katie should be, seeing as she teaches for a living! (Laughs.) But I've done it all my life."
What else is coming up for Katie?
"Well, I hope we get to film at the races - that'd be great! I actually don't know what's coming up because we've just got our new producer in, and we're not 100% sure what's going on in the future.
"I honestly can't tell you, but I'm pretty sure the Charity thing is going to come out. That will be big and cause a lot of upset at Home Farm and with the Dingles…"
Emmerdale star Sammy Winward has revealed that her character Katie Macey could get back with Andy Sugden.
Katie dumps husband Declan next week after finding out that he slept with Charity while they were on a break.
Asked who Katie should date next, Winward told Take It Easy magazine: "There isn't anyone, she's been out with them all! All the ones left are not very nice men.
"Maybe a little bit of time on her own would be quite good. She goes from one man to the next. She moves back in with Andy pretty much straight after, so who knows. She always ends up going back there."
Asked if Katie was naive to marry Declan, she added: "I wouldn't say she was naive, he covered it up so well which is why it annoys her so much.
"But she's quite savvy - because she has been married for less than a year, she knows she won't get half his money. And I think she is wondering if she can maybe keep the marriage going for a bit longer.
"I would tell her to just get as far away as possible really."
Katie is an character well past her shelf life on the show should have been axed many moons ago, time to get rid of her now please
Emmerdale's Katie Macey seduces Adam Barton next week as she finds herself in the midst of a messy break-up with husband Declan.Quote:

Here, Sammy Winward - who plays Katie - reveals why there might be no way back for her character's marriage this time.
How does Katie feel about the bones that are found on the glamping site?
"Katie feels very strongly about this, because she knows that it could be a missing person or a murder. She can't understand why Declan would want to keep it a secret. Obviously he does have to think about the financial impact, but this is somebody's life and there's probably a family out there who don't know where their son or daughter is."
Does finding out about Declan's one-night stand destroy Katie's love for him?
"Yes, definitely! It's been so difficult for them anyway, but when Katie finds out about Declan sleeping with Charity, it's the final straw for her. He's lied too many times now."
Is Katie in a rush to end the marriage?
"Yeah, once she finds out, she can't wait to get rid of him! Katie wants a full divorce - she wants out of the marriage. She also still wants the truth about the body to come out."
So how does Declan try to persuade Katie to keep quiet about the body?
"Declan tries to do a deal with Katie, which infuriates her. He's already trying to do deals with lots of people to try and cover up the body, and finally he tries to do the same with Katie!
"Declan tells Katie that because they haven't even been married for a year, she won't get half of his money. Even though Katie isn't that interested in the money side of things, it's still a big deal for her and she starts to accept what Declan is saying to her. She's going to wait until a year has passed, take the money and she'll want to tell all about the body then as well."
Wouldn't it just be easier to end things now?
"Well, Katie is thinking about the money and the stables too. The current contract is for five years for the stables to stay where they are. Declan is holding Katie to that, just to annoy her! Katie is gutted because she really just wants to go!"
Is Katie shocked by how ruthless Declan has become?
"Yeah, absolutely! She knew he could be ruthless initially, but never with her. Even after the Charity thing, Declan is really quite nasty with Katie and is trying to throw money at her to keep her quiet. Katie is very surprised."
What happens next?
"Katie later decides that she wants to move her horses out of the stables as soon as possible. That's because Chas tells her to stop moping around, as she's been sitting around in the café gossiping like the new Betty! Chas points out that there are plenty of stables in Yorkshire and Katie should just go with it.
"Katie promises to move on, but then Declan brings out the contract which says that she can't move the horses. Katie is pretty horrified by all of this. She's done nothing wrong as it's Declan who's made the mistake, so why is he making it so difficult?"
Will Katie want to get back at Charity too?
"I hope so! I don't know yet, but it'd certainly be good!"
We'll also see that Megan doesn't trust Katie to keep quiet about the body, despite the deal she's made with Declan. Is Katie aware of that?
"No, Katie is not aware of the fact that Megan is so far on Declan's side and that she really does want to keep quiet about the body. Declan and Megan have grown a bit closer recently, so I think Katie would be quite surprised to see what Megan is saying behind her back."
Katie decides to start flirting with Adam in order to get back at Declan! Does it have the desired effect on Declan?
"Yes, it kind of does initially! All Katie wants to do is prove to Declan that it's over, as he keeps saying that they can get over this and just be fine. Katie wants to prove to Declan that things aren't going to be fine, so she just uses Adam and that infuriates Declan. She gets the reaction that she wants, so it works!"
Does Katie actually fancy Adam?
"I think she does, because before she thinks of using him for her little plan, they do actually get along really well. There's definitely a chemistry there and she does fancy him, but then she realises that he's the perfect choice for her little scheme. Adam is a good-looking guy and he's got history with Declan, so he's the ideal choice to get back at Declan with!"
Is it just a one-off, or could something develop between Katie and Adam?
"I have no idea! There's always the possibility. It was really good fun filming the scenes with Adam Thomas - we just laughed our way through it, to be honest, because those kind of scenes are always awkward. Bless Adam, he had to take more of his clothes off than me! I didn't really have to take many of mine off! Adam was the one who was probably the most embarrassed, but it was fine."
Does Adam realise that Katie is just using him?
"Yeah, he kind of knows that she's doing it to make Declan jealous. But Adam's a guy and he's got a girl offering it on a plate, so he just goes along with it! The only thing Adam doesn't suspect is just how far Katie will go. She phones Declan for him to come over and catch her with Adam. Declan is furious when he finds them on the sofa together!
"That scene was actually really fun to film, because I had to really go for Jason. Declan says some awful things about Katie whoring herself, being a tart and having an open-door policy. Katie flies at Declan, so I was able to go quite mad in those scenes, which was really fun!"
Is there any way back for Katie and Declan?
"I don't think so! It just seems like a never-ending nightmare, doesn't it? They've had falling down mines, cheating, him not talking to her, business deals going wrong. It's constant - one thing after another. Also, Katie can't have babies and she hasn't been able to ride a horse for months."
Is it the beginning of a whole new Katie? Could she turn into a superbitch?
"I don't know if she'd turn into a superbitch, but I do like that Katie can be so feisty. She can speak her mind and get her revenge, but she's still got a heart and a conscience. She also still has the same friends all the way - Chas, Gennie and Andy. I quite like that there are more sides to Katie than just a classic superbitch, because we do have those already and I love those characters. To have too many of those wouldn't be right."
But has Declan chosen the wrong person to cross?
"I think so! I don't think Katie will stop until she's got what she wants. The future is going to have a lot more ups and downs for these two..."

Usually cant stand katie character but love how she is going to be in the nxt few weeks as she gets her revenge on declan lol
Great episode tonight katie was brilliant cant wait for nxt week
Emmerdale star Sammy Winward has revealed that she is hoping to stick with the soap for a long time to come.
The actress, who has been playing Katie Macey since 2001, is currently at the forefront of the show thanks to her character's relationship dramas with husband Declan (Jason Merrells).
Winward told TV Extra: "I've been here 11 years and I still love it. I'm mid-contract at the moment but Emmerdale is the perfect job for me.
"I love coming into work and I'm near home. It's just a great job. There's something different every day. I get to push people about, throw drinks over them, scream and shout!"
Last week, viewers saw Katie publicly humiliate Declan after learning of his one-night stand with Charity Sharma (Emma Atkins).
As there is seemingly no way back for their relationship, Katie moves out of Home Farm this week and goes to stay with ex-husband Andy Sugden (Kelvin Fletcher).
Winward commented: "It's one of those things when you get so used to working with people like Jason and Gaynor [Faye], and then that's going to be over soon. It's strange. I'm going to feel like a bit of a newbie working with everyone else again. It's exciting though, there's some really good stuff coming up."
She added: "We're going to see a strong Katie - she's feistier and generally out there wanting to get revenge."
