viewers are questioning if newcomer is somehow linked to evil and his looming exit from the soap.
The new character linked to made her debut last week, played by actress . Amid theories about a DNA twist and a secret link to a Dales family, some viewers are sure there is more to Jade.
But could she be linked to Tom, and could she be involved in his downfall? James Chase recently finished filming as abusive Tom, while the character has yet to be exposed to everyone in the village.
After months of coercive control and violence towards wife Belle Dingle, things escalated when she left him. As well as stalking her and trying to send her mental heath spiralling, he spread lies about her and even pretended her dog had died after he run adorable Piper over.
Belle has reported him to the police for domestic violence after she attacked him with an axe recently, after he tried to kill her. But a handful of residents still believe Tom over Belle, including his new lover Amelia Spencer.
She hasn't clocked on to the fact he's using her to get to Belle, and she's been awful about Belle. But perhaps newcomer Jade could be the person who finally brings Tom down.

One theory suggested that Jade could be an ex of Tom's, or might be someone from his past. Does she know about his abusive ways, and could she end up bringing his comeuppance?
It might sound pretty random with possibly no link between the characters at all, while this is soap land after all. A theory suggested: "Maybe she is an ex of Tom's who knows about his abuse? That would be interesting."
Other fans wondered if she was secretly working for Kim Tate to target her cheating ex Will Taylor. The theory read: "I am hoping Kim has employed her to sort Will out. I can but hope, he needs sorting almost as much as Tom."
It follows speculation she could also be the mystery daughter of Ruby and Caleb Miligan. Just recently we've heard several references about Stephanie, and fans are wondering if Jade is using a fake name.
It comes as fans predicted a sad death for Billy as part of his dark storyline. Comments about them "not being able to get rid of him" and him being at risk of infection left many convinced a death was on the cards.
One fan posted on social media: "Billy will end up dead," as another said: "Billy is putting his life on the line." A third fan wrote: "Who gets paid when Billy inevitably dies?"
