Belle Dingle struggles to wriggle out from under Tom King’s thumb but his Emmerdale downfall could be explosive and even deadly.
The pair tied the knot earlier this year, despite the village vet portrayed by James Chase displaying troubling and abrasive behaviour.
Things only got worse for Belle (played by Eden Taylor-Draper) as her new husband proceeded to exert more control on every aspect of her life.
Villagers in the ITV eponymous have, so far, turned a blind eye and Tom was able to torment Belle even further before finding out she was pregnant.
However, terrified of her beau’s temper and violent outbursts, Belle decided to have abortion behind his back and was close to leaving him until he was electrocuted.
