Linda Carter
EastEnders character Linda Carter is to tell all about her rape hell to Stacey Slater in forthcoming scenes.
The Queen Victoria landlady is to finally open up about being sexually assaulted by Dean Wicks, when she realises that Stacey is growing close to him romantically.
Linda was left so traumatised by the assault that she hasn't yet been able to tell anybody about it, but when she realises Stacey and Dean are involved she can't help herself.
Speaking to the Daily Star a source revealed: "Linda can see that Stacey's falling for Dean and she can't just sit back and watch it happen, given everything she knows.
"She would hate it if Stacey were to be attacked when she could have done something to prevent it. It's a big moment for Linda to open up about what happened to her, but it's going to open up a massive can of worms."
The emotional scenes air next month and leading up to then, Linda will tell husband Mick Carter that she's fallen pregnant, despite not knowing just who the unborn baby belongs to.
"When Mick finds out that Linda's not only been raped but she's pregnant too, he's going to lose the plot." added the source.
