EASTENDERS viewers were disgusted tonight as Michaela admitted to Whitney that she knew evil Tony King was abusing her.

The grieving mum apologised for “pushing too hard” as she continued to grill Whitney about Leo’s death while keeping her hostage.

In a bid to try and reason with Whitney, Michaela began to recall her time with paedophile Tony but let slip that she actually knew of her abuse all along.

She said: “I get it. I know what Tony was like. A manipulator, twisted. I was going to come to his trial and then I bottled it. I couldn’t face seeing you.

“When  found out what he did to you, I felt terrible. I at least thought I’d protected Leo. I’d done right by him.”

Whitney pulled her up on how she protected her late son, noticing something wasn’t right with her story.

“I left, I took Leo with me,” said Michaela.

Surprised, Whitney replied: “You left him. I thought he left you?”

Michaela continued: “I threw him out… He made me sick.”

Realising that her own abuse was the reason Michaela fled, a devastated Whitney said: “You knew. And you never said nothing. You knew what he was what he was capable of… You let him rape me.”

 

Viewers slammed Michaela for not doing anything to stop thesickening abuse.

One wrote on Twitter: “OMG Michaela knew the truth about Whitney & Tony this while time really?”

Another wrote: “Leo and Michaela are two peas in a pod…manipulation is their middle name.”

Things took a turn for the worse for Whitney this month when she was kidnapped by Michaela while her family believed she’d fled ahead of her murder trial.

EastEnders fans know Whitney is awaiting an appearance in court for the murder of Leo, who she killed in self-defence. 

Leo was the son of Whitney’s childhood abuser and had made it his life’s mission to avenge his father Tony by ruining Whitney’s life. 

Viewers watched in horror as his creepy behaviour came to an explosive head when he pounced at Whit with a knife after watching her from the attic above her bedroom.

But the brute ended up falling on his own knife and left Whitney in the firing line for his death.

Whitney has been released on bail and is back in the Square but was immediately hounded by Michaela, who blames her for her son’s death and has been slandering her online.

Fans were in shock when Michaela abducted Whitney at knife point and threatened to slit her throat if she made a sound.

It all kicked off when Gray then realised that Whitney disappeared off the face of the earth.

Sonia then found a letter making her think that Whitney had done a runner and fled the country. But little did they know that Whitney was in Michaela’s evil clutches.

Tonight Whitney continued to suffer as she’s held hostage by Michaela. Michaela also told Whit she can’t help but blame herself for Leo’s death.

Meanwhile, Gray and Max – who’ve discovered that Whitney has been kidnapped – put together a rescue plan to get Whitney out of Michaela’s clutches.

Fans are dreading an affair between Gray and Whitney after EastEnders teased a potential romance last month when the pair hugged following an emotional conversation. 

The pair have got closer and closer over the past few weeks as Gray has defended Whitney in court and supported her ahead of her looming murder trial. 

Most recently, Gray was quick to spring to Whitney’s side when he spotted Leo’s mum verbally abusing her in the pub. 

But the suave character is hiding the dark secret that he regularly abuses his wife Chantelle behind closed doors – and has even broken her arm – and fans aren’t keen on the prospect of him further ruining poor Whit’s life. 

Viewers have also expressed their fears that Whitney will defend abusive Gray when Whitney finally exposes him
