I don't think they will kill her off. Ashleigh hasn't ruled out a return, so she isn't getting killed off.

Kate has had some great storylines and there is still so much they can do with her.

Would love it if Ashleigh stayed.

Would be interesting if Kate decided she wanted a baby with Mark and her struggling with her premature ovarian failure diagnosis and Mark suppoirting her.. Then Kate miracley ends up prenant.

Fans would like a Kate & Mark happy ending with a wedding & a miracle baby. They could settle down in Ramsay Street for a year before leaving.
