Katie's got a very colourful village history! She grew up very quickly after marrying young and having to deal with affairs, break-ups and miscarriages. Her past has made her very independent and she's done very well for herself, running her own stables. Although she has a lot of interest from men, it doesn't tend to work out very well.
