Emmerdale spoilers as jailed Tom King manipulates cousin Angelica King
The teen finds herself helping her evil cousin.
This article contains discussion of domestic abuse, including coercive control, that some readers may find upsetting.
Tom King (James Chase) will set his sights on yet another character to use in his ruthless battle against ex-wife Belle (Eden Taylor-Draper) in upcoming Emmerdale scenes.
The abusive Tom has been arrested for breaking bail conditions, after being charged with coercive control and assault.
Although girlfriend Amelia Spencer (Daisy Campbell) washed her hands of him, Tom refused to give up, adamant that he was not going down for his heinous crimes as he plotted to ruin Belle in court.
As the final chapter of this harrowing storyline continues, Angelica attempts to make contact with cousin Tom in prison.
It's not long before impressionable Angel is reeled in by Tom's flattery, and he even wins her round to his vile anti-Belle stance.
Belle soon tells Angel's mum, Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler), that Tom has pleaded not guilty, but Nicola and husband Jimmy (Nick Miles) are oblivious to their daughter's continued connection to Tom.
Over the phone, manipulative Tom convinces Angel to try and win Jimmy round to his defence! But will Angelica do as Tom asks?
