Will was alarmed to find it freshly dug up and worried that, if Kim really did hear something incriminating, this could be part of her revenge.
But she reveals that she removed the corpse so that Will no longer feels tethered to her.
Will appeared touched by the gesture and proposed to Kim.
But fans were surprised Will chose to propose on Malone's former grave.
Dion tweeted: "Where did you propose? Standing over the grave of a policeman my daughter killed and I buried."
Emma said: "Yes because it’s so romantic to propose to the person who got rid of a body for you that you hid to protect your family."
Sophie added: "Nothing like a lovely stroll on a Xmas to the shallow grave you once dug."
Lee said: "Love @emmerdale let me propose over the empty grave of the man my daughter murdered."
And Leah said: "Proposing by the empty grave of a man that your daughter killed??? wow will. how romantic."
