ITV Emmerdale viewers are convinced they’ve “discovered” Belle Dingle’s new love interest.

Emmerdale viewers are certain that Belle Dingle is about to start a new romance.

Emmerdale fans are convinced they’ve figured out who Belle Dingle’s new love interest will be, and it seems to be a former flame. Viewers will remember that Belle has had a tough year, as she was subjected to domestic abuse by her husband, Tom King.

The couple got married in February 2024, but Tom’s dark side quickly came to light. He mistreated Belle, subjecting her to both physical and emotional abuse, with his controlling and violent actions worsening over time.

In September 2024, Belle opened up to her family about the abuse she suffered at the hands of Tom. However, despite her revelation, Tom continued to receive support from his close family, including his uncle Jimmy.

Tom was ultimately charged with assault and coercive control, and the harrowing storyline came to a close in December when the jury declared him guilty.

The judge declared, “I believe you have shown no remorse for your actions and have no intention of changing your behavior. As a result, I am imposing a custodial sentence of three years.”

After Tom’s sentencing, Belle has been focusing on rebuilding her life. She returned to her job at Take a Vow, which she had to leave previously, and has now taken over the business following the tragic deaths of her colleagues, Leyla Harding and Suzy Merton, in a limo crash.

Last week, Billy Fletcher confided in his estranged wife Dawn about his plans to take their children to visit his brother, Ellis Chapman, in London, as reported by Leicestershire Live.

Billy revealed, “Ellis is in town for a few days, but he can’t come to visit, so I suggested we’d go down there instead.”

Ellis and Belle’s tumultuous romance began in 2019, faced challenges in 2020 when trust issues surfaced, but they eventually reconciled and decided to keep their relationship private.

However, their connection fizzled out when Ellis left for Brisbane in 2022 for work.

After Billy’s recent trip to London, Emmerdale fans are buzzing with the possibility that Ellis might return to the village for a second chance at love with Belle.

One observant fan speculated on a Facebook fan page: “Billy mentioned visiting his brother Ellis in London. Do you think the writers might bring him back to rekindle things with Belle?”

Another fan added, hoping for a reunion: “Ah, he would be perfect for Belle. I struggle to think of a good match for her, especially since the man I hoped for her (Vinny) turned out to be her nephew.”

Another fan shared their excitement, commenting: “This would be amazing.”
