Emmerdale fans are buzzing with theories that Tom King (played by James Chase) might meet a fatal end at the hands of his current love interest, Amelia Spencer (Daisy Campbell), in a shocking murder plot twist.
The ITV soap has shown Tom’s cruel treatment of Belle Dingle (Eden Taylor-Draper), including both emotional and physical abuse spanning several months.
Although Belle has managed to escape their marriage, Tom continues to threaten her freedom, vowing to keep her under his control. To stir jealousy and appear as the perfect partner, he starts a sham relationship with Amelia, all while downplaying his abusive behavior.
Belle has reported Tom’s actions to the police and is hoping that his damaged iPad contains proof of his abusive nature—a crucial piece of evidence to defend herself after striking him with an axe in self-defense.
As the investigation intensifies, many Emmerdale fans believe that Amelia, still infatuated with Tom, could ultimately be the one to put an end to his reign of terror. Both Daisy Campbell and James Chase, portraying Amelia and Tom, are expected to exit the soap, leading to speculation that this might be part of a climactic storyline.
One fan on Reddit shared their theory: “I think I know what happens with Tom, or maybe it’s just wishful thinking. I don’t have all the details, but I believe Tom will finally attack either Belle or Amelia, and Amelia will retaliate, killing him. She’ll be convicted and sent to prison. This would bring closure to Tom and Belle’s story while allowing Amelia’s character to leave, but with the possibility of a return someday.”
Another user commented, “And Esther can be raised by Sam and Lydia,” while a third chimed in, “It could even set up another storyline like Vinny’s in a couple of decades!”
One viewer speculated, “Amelia has to kill Tom, right? The alternative would be Tom killing her, which would feel harsh after Belle’s vision of him harming her.”
They added, “I can’t think of any other reason Amelia would be written out if she isn’t killed or sent to prison.”
