Earlier this week, Linda received a phone call telling her that ex-husband Mick (Danny Dyer) had passed away. This wasn't exactly a surprise, given he went missing in the English Channel almost four years ago.
Janine explained that Mick had died just two weeks ago, having suffered a heart attack at his home in North London. She'd identified his body, and then arranged the cremation.
Linda struggled to believe that her once devoted husband would choose to abandon her family for so long, and with new fella Max Branning (Jake Wood), decided to seek further answers.
Janine eventually came clean and said that she'd fabricated the death because Lee Carter (Danny Hatchard) had revoked the initial death certificate, and she was going to have to return the life insurance pay out that she'd initially received.
Linda then broke the news to her children. Lee spiralled, hitting the bottle and refusing to accept that his dad was really gone. Little did Max and Linda realise, while they comforted him, Nancy (Maddy Hill) had gone into labour with his baby.

Although she stopped herself, Lee continued drinking. He rushed off to The Prince Albert, before tearing strips off his mum for ruining his life during her addiction.
Mother and son were clearly broken, and Linda stepped in to hug her son. They then returned to Peacock Palace, where Max went to explain that he'd possibly told Linda something that she wanted to hear, but it wasn't necessarily the truth.
Stood over her hospital bed, Lee took hold of the newborn and announced that he'd decided on the name Michael Carter, in tribute to his dad. However, just seconds later, he passed the child to Zack Hudson (James Farrar) and broke down in tears.
Will Max ever come clean about his lie, and will Linda be able to help Lee?
