Mandy Appleyard writing for television magazine Buzz said "conniving Kylie" has done some dreadful things since arriving. She added that between Kylie and David they had "seduced, brawled, lied, blackmailed, stolen and cheated, neither of them are perfect but together, they truly are perfect." Julie Richardson writing for Orange U.K. said she "loves a good TV scrap" and the serial had "a corker" with Becky and Kylie's fight. She also branded Kylie a "low-life". Tony Stewart of the Daily Mirror said that Kylie was right to taunt Tina as a loser. Though when Tina attacked her, he quipped that she should have kept "her chav trap shut and not wind up the fiery girl". Stewart's Daily Mirror colleague Jim Shelley bemoaned Kylie's return because it "absolutely ruined" Becky's feud with Tracy. Duncan Lindsay from Metro praised the Kylie's departure and the on-screen events that lead up to the moment. They branded the character's death "harrowing, moving and memorable, the drama proved just how right soaps can get it." Sophie Dainty (Digital Spy) said the scenes were some of the most heart-breaking the show had ever aired. Jade Pike writing for the Liverpool Echo called it a highly anticipated departure with viewers. They described "an emotional roller coaster of a night as Kylie Platt appeared on the cobbles for the last time." A reporter writing for the Inside Soap Yearbook described Kylie and David's "final moments together" as "very emotional".
