Emmerdale producer Laura Shaw has shared the show’s future plans for
Tom and Belle King’s domestic abuse storyline.
The ITV show is currently airing the most talked-about soap plot of the
year, as Tom continues to cruelly torment his wife Belle with no end in sight.
The couple’s dark scenes have focused on physical abuse and coercive control. Emmerdale has also been raising awareness of how technology can be used by domestic abusers as they obsessively monitor their partners.
Digital Spy caught up with Shaw this week for an insight into where the story goes from here.
