But Mick finally found the strength to confront his abuser last week and confide in his wife Linda, explaining that Frankie was his daughter and that Katy had raped him when he was 12.
Despite Linda’s encouragement, Mick refused to go to the police in emotional scenes.
But next week’s episodes of EastEnders will see the walls begin to close in on Katy as Shirley also gets wind of the abuse.
Upcoming scenes will see the Carter’s start to worry that Tina won’t show up to her hearing.
But they’re reassured when Gray lies that Tina might turn up and surprise them.
Later, Gray sends the family a text from Tina’s phone.
Meanwhile, it all kicks off as Frankie tells her mum that she deserves everything that’s coming to her.
Katy fears the worst when she hears the police knocking at her door and sneaks out, heading over to Mick’s.
But Mick insists he hasn’t called the police and tells her that it must be Frankie, before ordering her to leave.
During a furious showdown, Katy does her best to manipulate the situation to her advantage again but, as Mick loses control and tells her how he really feels, the pair are stunned to see Shirley standing there.
Later, Shirley is shocked and saddened to realise that Linda knew that Mick had been abused.
