Mum, I Need You To Believe Me | Hollyoaks

[@angelstilinski1513]

the way Suzanne freezes as soon as Frankie says “I was nine” just shows that she knew the exact moment. she was just choosing her golden boy over her

[@Wenefreda]

The fact that she still blaming her daughter for what her son did and she’s showing her the proof shows that this mother never really cared. She only wanted her son to be OK.

[@patrickchan2503]

I think the mum just wants the monei reallei

[@ecentral7512]

She wants the kids football money

[@Delski11]

More like attention she and the son needs help honestly

[@patrickchan2503]

I think Suzanne knows how difficult life is so she puts up with certain things and turn a blind eye. Funny she kicked her ex out when Frankie told her at 9 years old she was touched. Because sometimes mothers would choose their love life over their children.

It’s because she’s sees him a way out poverty to be rich because jjs football

Absolutely.

[@rebekah_meeker]

In America, what their mom just did is “aiding and abetting a criminal”, “disposing of evidence”, and some states also have “parent responsibility laws” that will charge the parent the same charges as the child. I really home Frankie had her phone backed up to the cloud so she can get some justice.

[@zanthus7]

That disgusting horrible vile woman. When JJ goes to jail, Suzanne should be in the cell next to him serving twice the number of years that he gets. It's one thing to not know the truth but this heffa was told years ago and did nothing to stop it or even try to determine if it was true. So a prosecuting attorney could argue that Suzanne gave her son permission to continue doing this disgusting act to his sister because Suzanne was told the truth and ignored it and turned her back on her daughter. Suzanne went out of her way to make her daughter feel ashamed in order to protect her preceious JJ. So if JJ is sentenced to 20 years in prison, Suzanne should be sentenced to 40 years.

[@romelphilemond1215]

I agree

[@jrock1698]

Horrible but so typical. Whenever a child is hurt, they run right to Mom. We all do. And, Mom is supposed to believe and protect - but, sometimes, that doesn’t happen.

[@ohmyl3s857]

You can tell Suzanne believes her, which is the worst part. She knows what JJ did, but she values/loves him too much to let anything happen to him. That's why she took the phone, to get rid of the evidence. She has such a boy mom-vibe as well. Like nothing could ever get between her and her son, but her daughter is simply meaningless. It's so heartbreaking and she's so selfish. I don't know if she thinks that she will be certified rich, safe, and loved with JJ and views Frankie as worthless but..

I was 11 years old and I was sexually assaulted by my brother-in-law I was terrified but he said you love your sister. We don’t want to tell her because it would hurt her. We don’t want to hurt her. My sister was 12 years older than I was, she was married And had a child I did not want to hurt her of course so I never said anything, but I was always terrified to be in the house with him alone. I would tell my little brother please don’t leave me alone in the house with him when we went over to his house, which we often did because my parents were alcoholics, and my sister would come get us to keep us away from the fighting arguing and drinking. It was me, my older brother and my younger brother I was in my 20s when I finally told my younger sister what happened… one day we got in a fight about some thing and she told my older sister that I slept with her husband. Those were the words she used. My sister called me and attacked me over the phone and I screamed at her. He raped me. I did not “sleep”with your husband…. and I can prove it when I turned 18 and I went to visit my sister and her husband with my boyfriend. We confronted him one night while sitting outside drinking beer. I asked him why why would he do something like that to me, I said I should go. Tell my sister right now and said she’ll never believe you… he was right to this day I’m 64 and he was right she still doesn’t wanna believe it!
