It’s fair to say that Belle has had a tough year in Emmerdale but she’s about
to be given a bit of Christmas cheer, says Eden Taylor-Draper.
In what will be music to everyone’s ears, Piper the Dog will make a return at Christmas.
After realising that Piper never died after all, Belle reunites with her beloved pup! Finally!
Piper the Dog still alive
Little Piper is currently believed to be dead by Belle, with Belle even having a funeral for her dog.
But, all of these tears were for nothing as Piper is actually still alive.
Tom actually had buried an empty coffin, cruelly having Belle believe that Piper’s body was inside.
He then secretly handed a very much alive Piper over to some new owners, making out that Belle had treated the pup horribly.
In festive scenes though, as Tom’s comeuppance looms, Belle and Piper are about to reunite. And, we’re so ecstatic. It’s sure to be music to many ears!
Piper the Dog and Belle reunite at Christmas on Emmerdale
Speaking to Emmerdale Insider and other media, Eden Taylor-Draper revealed that Piper the Dog returns back into Belle’s arms at Christmas, thanks to the help of Gabby and Vinny.
Eden shared: “She [Belle] can’t get it out of her head, he’s [Tom’s] lied about so many things and she just thinks we never actually saw the evidence. Yeah, we buried a casket, but who knows what’s in there?”
Belle and Vinny then decide to dig up Piper’s casket and realise that it’s empty. The search for Piper then begins.
Eden teased: “It’s actually Vinny and Gabby that end up tracking her down, getting in touch with the people who Tom gave Piper to, and explain the situation.
“At Christmas, Belle is by her dad’s grave having a moment, and then all of a sudden you just see Piper running up with a bow.” What an emotional moment!
