Emmerdale Belle baby daddy revealed in pregnancy twist and its not Tom

EXCLUSIVE: Emmerdale fans have watched in horror as Belle Dingle becomes ensnared in her new husband Tom Kings trap after tying the knot with him and now she could sink even further

Emmerdale fans have been left fretting for Belle King after seeing her tie the knot with the emotionally abusive Tom and now she could be in for yet another shock.

Over the last few weeks, viewers watched as Tom berated Belle, calling her a cheap slag when she stripped off to surprise him at the vets and pressuring her to do things she doesnt want to. On their wedding night, he made his new wife sleep on the sofa while reading an emotional letter from her late mum Lisa.

Now fans think Belle could become even more trapped as they think a pregnancy bombshell could be in store but some have suggested the baby wont be Toms even as he tries to get her to rely on him and trap her in the house.

One Reddit user first suggested: I feel like Tom wants a stay at home wife. He clearly doesnt want her out shopping or working and I also reckon hes trying to get her pregnant, so she has no choice but to stay at home.

Another quickly responded: Shell end up pregnant but it wont be Toms baby else shed be tied to him for life. Shell sleep with Nate or someone lol! Someone else thought the incest plot would be too much, penning: I think incest between a biologically related aunt and nephew would be a step too far, even for the Dingles!

Nate is Cains biological son, while Belle is Cains half-brother, both children of Zak Dingle. But fans have spotted sparks between the pair previously, and with Nate still heartbroken over the breakdown of his marriage to Tracy, anything is possible.

Tom has shown his controlling side

Both Nate and Belle have form when it comes to cheating, with Nate carrying out a steamy affair with Cains wife Moira when he first arrived on the scene, and cheating on Tracy with a one-night-stand. Belle had an affair with married doctor Jermaine, and another with Jamie Tate, before settling down with Tom.

Taking their theories to X, one fan wrote back in January: I wonder if Nate might sleep with Belle when he finds out about Tracy and Calebs affair? Belle cheating before her wedding to Tom! Another suggested: Nate totally likes Belle but shes his half-auntie Emmerdale going all Game of Thrones on us!

Daily Star decided to ask Google's AI tool Gemini who the potential other fathers could be, and it suggested the return of some very well-known faces. The AI tool suggested Ellis Chapman, who had a "complex relationship" with Belle, and even villain Lachlan White.

It said: "While unlikely given his absence from the village, past storylines sometimes resurface in soaps [so Jamie Tate could return]." Speaking about Lachlan, the AI said: "Given their past and Lachlan's dark side, this would make for a very dramatic storyline."

Viewers have been left feeling tense as Belles romance with Tom quickly turns sour, with one writing: When he first came he was a nice guy but now he has become a super creepy guy and I get uncomfortable whenever he is on screen. I've always found Belle to be a bit of old lettuce but he is already doing a number on her.

Someone else pointed out: Hes just a control freak who wont be happy with anything she does. Hell keep on belittling her until shes broken, then shell try her hardest to please him for tiny scraps of appreciation. The controlling partner story was obvious to many from the start, but its worrying how many people here didnt spot it. Im not a fan of the raising awareness stories but I think this one might actually be beneficial!
