Emmerdale fans are deeply divided over the recent abuse storyline involving Belle Dingle. The latest episodes have brought Belle’s harrowing ordeal to a climax, and it’s about to worsen when her abusive husband, Tom King, takes her to a remote cottage. This follows a violent incident where Tom, in a fit of rage after discovering Belle’s secret abortion, was injured and declared dead momentarily after suffering a high-voltage electric shock.

Despite this, Tom is determined to isolate Belle from her friends and family. He plans to move her to a secluded area in Wales after securing a job there. However, Charity Dingle has noticed troubling signs at Belle and Tom’s home and is determined to uncover the truth.

The storyline, which has been developing since Belle and Tom’s wedding in February, has split the Emmerdale fanbase. Some viewers feel the plot has dragged on too long, while others praise the show for its realistic portrayal of abusive relationships, with some even sharing their own experiences of coercive control.

Emmerdale bosses have confirmed that Belle and Tom’s storyline is far from over, promising more twists and turns ahead. The show has been working closely with organizations like Refuge and New Beginnings Peer Support to ensure an accurate and sensitive portrayal of domestic abuse.
