Emmerdale: Belle Dingle’s Surprise Proposal Sparks Controversy
The latest proposal storyline in Emmerdale has fans debating the thin line between “happily ever after” and the potential for an abusive relationship. In the Super Soap week, we witnessed Tom’s abusive behavior after Belle turned his marriage proposal down. However, he later apologised, and Belle decided to give her relationship a chance by not disclosing the incident to anyone. Things were going quite smoothly and slowly between the pair until now.
This Christmas in Emmerdale, Chas, who is totally unaware of the last month’s incident, encouraged Belle to take a step forward. Later, Layla took a blindfolded Tom to the ice rink. He was surprised to spot his ideals Torvill and Jean skating there. Soon after, Belle entered and went down on one knee and asked him to marry her. Obviously, Tom said yes to her. But this proposal had fans wondering what is actually wrong with Belle. A month ago, she was not ready for the commitment, but now, suddenly, she is sure about him.
