The midwife has refused to accept her son was a rapist before he died, and has been a constant reminder of Victoria's ordeal.

On Thursday (January 30), fans of the soap were incensed yet again as Wendy and her son Luke talked about their feelings for Lee, who was killed after a violent exchange with the now imprisoned Robert Sugden.

Viewers took to social media to say they are fed up of the soap's portrayal of Wendy, with some even saying the scriptwriters should be "ashamed of themselves" for showing her as a victim.
