She asked her to convince Jacob to drop the complaint. Furthermore, Dr Todd demanded money from Charity. In yesterday’s episode, an emotional storyline was aired.
Dr Todd sexually assaulted Charity Dingle. The show bosses earlier announced that the storyline will explore the devastating effects of sexual violence and the complex feelings of isolation experienced by the victims of sexual abuse. Over the next few weeks, Charity will struggle with the aftermath of the attack.
Charity has to choose between telling the truth to her loved ones or internalising the trauma. Thus, it seems she did not ask for help directly from the Dingles. The situation will also be more complicated as Charity has been hiding the truth about baby Leyla.
