Character

Michelle is enthusiastic and very confident. She will rattle cages and shout the odds, but she's great with patients and has good instincts. Michelle loves to tease, but she's not one to sleep around. She'll use her looks to get what she wants but woe betide anyone who gets the wrong end of the stick. She may be seen as something of a mischief maker, but it's always in pursuit of fun and she's usually the one to get the party started.

Storylines

Ruth Pearce's BPD

Michelle permanently fell out with Ruth after she caught her in bed with her half brother Adam. Before this their colleague Daniel Granger witnessed Ruth pretending and declaring to be Michelle and this had led to a patient nearly dying of a heart attack. When Daniel warned Michelle of Ruth's strange antics, Michelle confronted Adam about his relationship with Ruth. She discovered he had been seeing her secretly and that Ruth had been stealing her possessions including her clothes for months.

Initially, Michelle thought Adam was defending Ruth and that he knew that she was her friend, but he insisted that he had no idea of what Ruth was actually doing, that he loved her more than Michelle which was why he offered that Ruth should be referred to a mental health institute, where she was later sectioned. Due to this, Ruth stole and took away Michelle's pendant that Michelle's dad had given her when she was a child.

Michelle was furious to learn that Julia Parsons was letting Ruth stay at her place after her release from section. She decided that she should leave but Heston Carter and Cherry managed to persuade her to stay. Heston told her that Ruth wouldn't be allowed back to the surgery. However, Melody determined that Ruth was ready to return to work which, as predicted, made Michelle furious.

Drinking Problem

She is good friends with her colleague Cherry Malone. She used to be friends with fellow colleague Ruth Pearce, but at the start of Series 11 they fell out. Michelle has recently been drinking vodka from the bottle in work. Cherry came across this by accident when she came back into the campus after work, she decided not to tell anyone except Simon what she had seen. Because Michelle was drinking she made a mistake and gave Cherry the wrong needle in the vaccination clinic, making a man go in to anaphylaxic shock. She told Cherry that she would tell Julia the truth, that it was her mistake. But in the meeting she lied and said that she took full responsibility because she should have double-checked but that it was Cherry's mistake. Cherry told Julia about Michelle's drinking and that it was Michelle's fault in the clinic but when Michelle's bag was searched, she had hidden the vodka and Cherry was suspended. Fortunately Michelle told the truth to Julia and all was revealed. Cherry and Michelle stay friends but are not as close as they were.
