Upcoming spoilers reveal that Belle Dingle makes a worrying discovery about unhinged husband Tom King as she attempts to gain back control over her life. Elsewhere, one loved-up couple plan to leave the Dales after months of family drama.

Also in the village next week, a dark Moira Dingle revenge twist is teased after Samson Dingle’s lies put her son Matty Barton in prison. Here’s the biggest storylines ahead next week on Emmerdale…

The ITV soap is tackling a coercive control storyline with Tom King and Belle Dingle, and fans have recently seen Tom isolating and manipulating his partner Belle. With his vile behaviour worsening recently and him having her under surveillance, recent episodes took an even more heartbreaking turn as Tom turned violent.

In shocking scenes this week, Belle realises she is pregnant and next week sees the character wracked with nerves as she opens up to the midwife and admits she wants a termination. Booking an appointment for a scan, Belle is crushed it’s come to this. Later, as Tom returns home, Belle quickly hangs up a call with a taxi firm.

As Tom compliments her makeup, Belle strategically asks him to take a photo, and clocks his phone pin. After a little while, Tom heads upstairs and Belle unlocks his phone, trying to access his banking app to pay for the taxi. However, it’s not long until Belle is floored when she makes a shocking discovery and realises Tom’s been tracking her every movements. Following the discovery, Belle feels trapped as she fails to convince Tom to let her use the car.

Finding a spare key, Belle is unsure whether to risk it and drive herself to the abortion clinic. Meanwhile, Amelia reluctantly agrees to look after her dog Piper, and Belle slips her phone into Esther’s pram so Tom can’t track her. Paranoid, Belle checks she’s not being watched and gets into Tom’s car. Whilst at the clinic, Belle struggles to make sense of her situation with Tom, but she is adamant she can’t have this baby… what happens next and will Tom find out?
