Last night’s episode of Emmerdale (Thursday, May 30) saw Tom take another step in his abuse of Belle as he locked her in her own home.
As well as isolating her from her loved ones, he gifted her a pill dispenser as he continued to make out that she’d missed her medication.
Emmerdale fans have now demanded that Belle leaves Tom as the ‘red flags’ become harder to ignore.
Emmerdale: Tom locked Belle in her own home
With Belle back home from the mental health crisis centre, Lydia and Sam paid her an unexpected visit yesterday.
Belle enjoyed seeing her family but once she was out of the room, Tom told them that they should run any future visits by him first.
Gifting Belle with a pill dispenser, Tom told her that it would mean that she would never miss taking her medication again.
Belle told her husband that she didn’t miss any pills in the first place before Tom decided to lock the door to keep unwanted visitors out.
