Tom King takes drastic action to separate Belle Dingle from her family in Emmerdale
Tom got Belle an adorable dog as part of his schemes in a recent episode.
TOM King takes drastic action to separate Belle Dingle from her family in Emmerdale.
The vet has become increasingly controlling of his new wife since their wedding day earlier this year.
While Tom manages to disguise his twisted behaviour behind a charming demeanour in public, behind closed doors it’s a different story.
Next week on Emmerdale, Tom’s irritated to see Belle spending time with Vinny and the dogs.
When Belle gets called into work, Vinny offers to look after their new dog Piper but later Belle’s distraught when Vinny tells her he’s missing.
Tom’s quick to take on the role of the calm saviour.
With Piper missing, Belle and Vinny’s friendship is at breaking point. Has Tom managed to get his way?
Tom introduced Piper to Belle in a recent episode in another covert bid to control her.
Tom explained how Piper’s elderly owner had died, and their daughter had wanted to put Piper down.
In a later scene, Tom made it clear he wanted to keep Piper but Belle insisted they were both too busy with their jobs to give the dog the attention it needed.
But regarding her job at Take a Vow, Tom said: “I earn enough for us both, for all three of us.
“I got you Piper to cheer you up, come on how can you say no to this face?”
But Belle was adamant and Tom looked far from impressed.
Emmerdale fans feared what the vet might do to Piper as part of his manipulation and controlling behaviour of Belle.
Taking to X – formerly Twitter – one wrote: “If anything happens to Piper the dog, I swear I’ll stop watching.”
Another added: “swear to god if Tom does something to Piper and make it seem like it’s Belle’s fault then I will go off!!! Don’t mess with the pooch!!!! Rehome rehome rehome!!!”
