Belle received some bad news which Tom took full advantage of
EMMERDALE’S Belle Dingle received some devastating news amid her harrowing abuse storyline.
The domestic abuse story took a sickening turn in a revenge porn twist in tonight’s episode of Emmerdale.
Belle (Eden Taylor-Draper) was left devastated to open her laptop and learn by email there will be no disclosure following her Clare’s Law Application.
Watching from his cameras, delighted, Tom (James Chase) was vindicated and enjoyed her distress.
Tom delivered a coded comment to Belle which alerted her to his knowledge of the results of her private email.
Belle quizzed him: “Have you been spying on me? On my phone, my laptop?”
Tom answered: “Belle, please, why would I do that? What to look for those arty photos I took of you?”
Tom then reminded her of the exposing photos he could release.
He said: “You need to be careful of your passwords. I mean, if they fell into the wrong hands, it would be terrible.
“When something is posted online, it’s there forever, for everyone to enjoy.”
Belle froze under the threat.
Tom continued to gaslight her saying: “If you have any more paranoid thoughts, talk to Rachel.”
Belle responded: “I’m not paranoid. I know what I heard,” to which Tom adds: “Seriously Belle, who is going to believe you?
“With all those voices you hear, it must be hard to tell what’s real and what’s imaginary.”
A shaken Belle stormed off.
Later, Belle was left distraught to realise the password to access her photos has been changed.
She threw the laptop on to the floor and sobbed as she felt trapped and helpless.
Can anyone help Belle? Will she open up to her family?
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
