Michelle: wrongly accused
MICHELLE FINDS HERSELF IN ANOTHER TEEN SEX SCANDAL…
There’s big trouble for Michelle this week – when Mel accuses her of trying to seduce her son Hunter!
Accusations fly after the shamed teacher arrives to begin her tutoring gig with the bad boy, only to discover him half-dressed and in the midst of a passionate encounter with Louise. Although Michelle reluctantly agrees to keep what she’s seen a secret – Louise having begged her to stay shtum – that doesn’t stop everything kicking off as twisted Hunter insists she attempted to kiss him!
“Being accused of molesting another student is Michelle’s worst nightmare,” sighs our Walford snitch. “Her affair with schoolboy Preston cost Michelle everything, including her marriage and her career. It’s taken a long time for her to rebuild her life and regain the trust of those around her. By telling these lies, Hunter could destroy all of that.”
It’s deeply embarrassing for Michelle when she catches Hunter and Louise in a compromising position. It also puts her in a moral quandary, as her best friend Sharon is Louise’s stepmum. Rather than tell everyone what they’ve been up to, Michelle elects to distance herself from the situation, and explains to Mel that she can’t tutor her son.
However, even as she neglects to give Mel all the facts, Hunter sees a way to create more trouble between his family and the Mitchells. Michelle is knocked for six after Mel confronts her in a rage and accuses her of trying to kiss the twisted teenager. It doesn’t matter how much Michelle protests, Mel believes Hunter – and she’s not the only one.
Sharon can’t in all conscience say she’s behind Michelle”
“Sharon is Michelle’s truest friend, but when she hears Hunter’s story, she’s inclined to believe him,” says our snoop. “Michelle has a history of doing this, and her affair with Preston outraged everyone, even those who love her. Because of what happened in the past, Sharon can’t in all conscience say she’s 100 per cent behind Michelle. That’s utterly heartbreaking.”
With her reputation on the line again, will Michelle reveal the truth about Hunter? Meanwhile, Sharon’s reaction has hit her hard – so, backed into a corner, will the usually feisty Michelle come out fighting, or will this prove one setback too many?
