Emmerdale spoilers tease villain’s shock death, triple exit and prison horror

Emmerdale airs dramatic scenes next week that could result in more than one exit and a possible death on the ITV soap.

There’s a horrifying twist as Tom King appears to rumble Belle Dingle’s recent lie about suffering a miscarriage, when she in fact had an abortion. Viewers know that Tom has been abusing his wife for months, coercively controlling her and manipulating her before turning violent.

Belle fell pregnant and didn’t want to go through with the pregnancy, but Tom was pushing her to have the baby while isolating her further. Belle’s decision to cover up the abortion leads to her confessing to her Mental Health Care Coordinator, Rachel, and soon the truth about the abuse could come to light.

Belle fears that Rachel is starting to realise the extent of Tom’s controlling behaviour and is desperate for her to leave but as Rachel reassures Belle, the reality of Tom’s abuse finally hits home. Belle ends up deciding to flee the village and Tom, advised to have some space from him.

But with her bags packed and her ready to flee she is unaware that a furious Tom has uncovered she has been lying to him. When he realises Belle took a trip to the abortion clinic, he begins to attack his surroundings with an iron bar.

But as he prepares to deal one final swing, the metal bar smashes against the barn’s rotary isolator behind him, and Tom is electrocuted. He’s thrown against a beam and he falls to the ground, left lifeless on the floor – but is this the end of Tom?

Elsewhere, another secret could come to light as Eric Pollard continues to push Jai Sharma to the edge. Eric knows all about Jai fleecing dad Amit Sharma out of his businesses, after Jai found out Amit had caused Rishi Sharma’s death.

When Eric encourages Jai’s partner Laurel Thomas to ask him about their ongoing friction, Laurel confronts him – so will Jai be forced to confess? Jai’s brother Suni Sharma is left torn, as his partner Nicky Miligan remains eager to leave the village for good after recent goings on.

With reports that Suni and Nicky are bowing out of the show, could this be the start of their exit storyline? Meanwhile Dawn Taylor is finally able to return home with baby son Evan next week, amid his treatment for leukaemia.

Soon she’s left paranoid about how safe her poorly son is at home around her other children, with her mother Rose Jackson eager to help her through her turmoil. Finally, there’s concern for Matty Barton who remains in prison after being framed for an attack on Samson Dingle.

Matty tries to mask his horror when he returns to his cell to find hardman Les has been moved in with him. Les taunts Matty in his cell, leaving him concerned for his safety.

His stepfather Cain Dingle visits him but his attempts to bolster him fall flat. Matty points out Les as his new cellmate and struggles to keep his emotions in check, as Cain urges him to use violence if he needs to – but will he make matters worse?
