Tonight's episode of Emmerdale was a special one, solely focused on Belle Dingle and her journey after enduring months of abuse from her husband Tom King. We've watched as Belle attempted to take control of her life, even going as far as telling Tom their marriage is over and trying to move on. But Tom has made it nearly impossible for her, sneaking cameras into their home to surveil her and monitoring her every move on her laptop. He's also managed to isolate her from her friends and family, painting himself as the innocent victim while portraying Belle as mentally unstable. Sadly, even those closest to her have fallen for this facade to some degree.
In a recent disturbing turn of events, Tom has started a relationship with Amelia Spencer. Fearing for Amelia's safety, Belle pleaded with him to leave the younger girl alone in the previous episode. But Tom twisted her words and interpreted it as jealousy, believing that Belle still wanted him back. It was horrifying to watch as he forcefully kissed her, claiming that they were meant to be together in the end.
This storyline has been ongoing for quite some time now, and in this episode, we saw three different versions of the future play out in Belle's mind. Each one depicted a possible outcome for her, Tom, and Amelia. In one scenario, she had escaped from Tom's control and found happiness again, working with Suzy in their wedding planning business. It was a stark contrast to the Belle we've grown used to seeing, who was confident, happy, and dressed up for work. In another reality, Suzy was planning Tom and Amelia's wedding, which was chilling to witness. Belle's concern for the bride-to-be was evident.
Belle has been through so much in the past year, and now she has to watch as Amelia flirts with Tom, just as she once did. In a later scene, she noticed Amelia outside her house with a burned hand, just like Belle did when Tom scalded her for still being on the pill. Trying to offer support, Belle told Amelia she was there to talk if she needed it. But like Belle, Amelia refused to acknowledge anything was wrong in her marriage. The episode ended with Amelia's lifeless body being carried out of the house, claiming she had fallen down the stairs.
In the other alternate realities, Belle stayed with Tom to protect Amelia but ended up pregnant and faced with more violence. Or she revealed the truth, only for Cain to end up in prison for life after attacking Tom. But the thought of Amelia dying because of her silence was too much for Belle to bear. She finally reached her breaking point and opened up to Charity, confessing everything that had been happening. In a powerful moment, Charity promised to keep Belle safe and make sure Tom never hurts her again.
