Is Belle leaving Emmerdale? Fans predict 'twist' after Tom axed in back
Emmerdale fans believe there may be another twist to come after Tom receiving an axe to the back in yesterday's episode.
During the show, Tom, who has been abusing Belle for months, came face-to-face with Belle after he tricked her. Originally, she was going to go to the police, but Tom's new girlfriend Amelia convinced her to meet, and Belle believed she was going to talk about how Tom had been abusing her instead.
However, it was Tom who came to the meeting, locking Belle in and immediately lying and twisting the truth. He got physical, leaving Belle with blood on her hands and neck.

Belle managed to get a nearby shotgun and ran, but Tom pursued her until she locked herself in an farm house. Tom grabbed an axe and began smashing the wood door down.
Tom dared Belle to shoot him, and she tried, pulling the trigger, but the safety was left on. Tom grabbed the gun and threw the axe to the side, mocking Belle and threatening her with the gun.
He admired himself in a cracked mirror, but was shocked when the axe he had left at the side was stabbed into his back. Tom collapsed to the floor while Belle looked shocked.

Just beforehand however, Amelia confessed to Belle's family, Sam, Lydia and Vinny, telling them what she had done and they raced off to help her. Now, some fans believe it may not have been Belle who used the axe at all, reports The Express.
One said: "After watching it over and over again I don't think it was Belle."
Others also shared similar ideas, with many believing it could have been Vinny. Another said: "I didn't expect that but I don't think Bell killed him it might be Vinny."
Yet more shared the same theory: "Hopefully Vinnie. The others wouldn't have gotten there in time."
More said: "I don't think it was Belle...maybe Vinny." While an additional comment also supported this guess: "I think Vinnie!"
