Fans of Emmerdale have demanded that Tom King steer clear of wife Belle Dingle when she returns to the village. Belle has been taking some time away from Tom since their fateful trip to Wales – with Belle calling time on their marriage and leaving the village for some much-needed space.
However, Tom has continued to plot, even in her absence. Last night’s episode (which aired on Wednesday, August 15), Tom got himself excited after getting a text from Belle.
Assuming this meant that a reconciliation might be on the cards, he set about planning a surprise for her return.
What does Tom have planned?
