Mick Carter’s Sexual Abuse Trauma

After getting out of the care home and away from Katy, Mick grew up and put what happened to him out of his mind. He graduated school, got married, had kids and ran the Queen Vic. However, everything came crashing down when Frankie Lewis (Rose Ayling-Ellis) said he could be her father.

Then Katy came to Walford and blamed the victim, claimed it didn’t happen and made it sound like Mick was abusing her. At the same time, she would get him to open up about his troubles and manipulated him all over again.
