Janine discovered she was expecting a baby this week<\/a>, but when her partner Mick (Danny Dyer) unwittingly implied that he wasn\u2019t interested in having any more children, Janine confided in Sonia Fowler (Natalie Cassidy) that she had booked a termination<\/a>.<\/p>\n But after Mick\u2019s daughter Frankie Lewis (Rose Ayling-Ellis) overheard the two women talking about the situation, Frankie followed Janine and confronted her about her secrecy. Later, Frankie returned to The Vic and revealed the truth to Mick \u2013 but Mick\u2019s reaction got to Frankie, who jumped to Janine\u2019s defence.<\/p>\n At the clinic, Mick arrived just in time as Janine was all set to go ahead with the termination. But with both of them torn over what to do, they failed to make a decision together. Mick left without knowing what Janine planned to do next, and back at home he and his family said their goodbyes to Frankie<\/a> as she departed for a new job in Scotland.<\/p>\n Janine later revealed to Mick that she didn\u2019t go through with the abortion, and the couple shared a hug. But it was clear to viewers that Mick remained conflicted over his lingering feelings for Linda.<\/p>\n As the day of Linda\u2019s hearing arrived, Mick told mum Shirley Carter (Linda Henry) about Janine\u2019s pregnancy, and she encouraged him to tell Linda the news.<\/p> Mick was concerned about the impact this might have on Linda, and missed his chance to explain as the court hearing began. Happily, Linda was granted custody of baby Annie; but as she celebrated with pal Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean), Linda realised how expensive her new lawyer was, meaning that Mick had done even more for her than she thought.<\/p>\n With her love for Mick stronger than ever, Linda decided to declare her feelings for him at the pub. But as Janine\u2019s jealously reared its head once more, she hurriedly announced to Linda and everyone in The Vic that a baby was now on the way.<\/p>\n Poor Linda! But with Mick not quite ready to move on from Linda, is Janine\u2019s joy set to be short-lived if he decides to reunite with his ex? And will the Carters ever find out about Janine\u2019s various crimes?<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n Visit our dedicated\u00a0EastEnders<\/a>\u00a0page for all the latest news, interviews and spoilers.\u00a0<\/strong>If you\u2019re looking for more to watch check out our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n The latest issue of Radio Times magazine is on sale now \u2013\u00a0subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0and get the next 12 issues for only \u00a31.
