Emmerdale fans think Belle Dingle is finally recognising her husband Tom King’s abusive ways, after recent scenes saw her research abuse online.
Tom has been subjecting Belle to horrific abuse ever since they got married last year. Finally splitting from Tom, it looks like she could finally be coming to terms with being a victim of abuse.
Here’s everything you need to know about Belle’s abusive marriage to Tom in Emmerdale.
Emmerdale: Belle wonders if she is a victim of abuse
In Tuesday’s episode (July 30) of Emmerdale, Belle began wondering if she is a victim of abuse. Following a visit from her mental health worker Rachel, she was left alone to consider the possibility of Tom abusing her.
Belle could be seen pulling up a web search on her laptop, where she typed in ‘was I being abused?’ She then clicked on a website that details the events that sometimes follow once a victim leaves their abuser.
Many organisations were recommended to help, but Belle was also left fearful as she read it is a dangerous time for the victim when they distance themselves from the perpetrator.
Will Belle realise the true extent of Tom’s actions?
