Belle Dingle will find herself in terrifying danger this week on Emmerdale when a fire breaks out. The Dales resident has been struggling as of late, following her new marriage to vile Tom King. Tom has been coercively controlling Belle, gaslighting her and has even physically abused her on occasions.

However, she is adamant she wants to stay with him, desperate to make her marriage work as she is convinced he can change, with him constantly assuring her that what she is experiencing is her fault and not his.

In shocking scenes next week, Belle realises she is pregnant. Whilst most would be thrilled to be expecting, she is horrified and hides her pregnancy from Tom. She tries to see what her options are, before eventually Tom finds out about the baby.

Later in the week, a tired Belle decides to take a nap with Piper. Tom has locked her in the house as part of his controlling abuse, but as they nap upstairs, a fire begins in the kitchen thanks to Belle leaving the hob on. A tea cloth catches fire – but will Belle and Piper make it out ok?
