The following article contains spoilers from an episode of Emmerdale that hasn’t

aired on ITV1 yet, but is available to view on ITVX.

Tom King’s (James Chase) determination to get Belle Dingle (Eden Taylor-Draper)

as far away from her family as possible continued in Wednesday’s (July 3) episode

of Emmerdale, as he began the process of moving.

In recent instalments of the ITV soap, Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) has grown suspicious of Belle and Tom’s relationship. She attempted to stage an intervention with other members of the Dingle clan, but Belle felt uncomfortable and couldn’t bring herself to open up.

Outside the pub, Charity was very close to discovering Belle is being abused by her husband, but Tom then arrived, causing Belle to panic and run off.

Meanwhile, at home, Tom was dressed up in a suit, attending a zoom call interview.

The lady on the call explained to Tom that if he was to be offered this new job, it would require moving to a very remote part of Wales. This didn’t seem an issue for Tom because of course, to him, a house in the middle of nowhere would be the perfect place to trap Belle.

When she returned home from her walk, Tom turned the focus to them potentially going on holiday.

Rather than plant a seed about a few weeks in a sunny place overseas, Tom proposed spending time in the Welsh countryside.
