After a one-night-stand with Grant, Michelle left Albert Square in 1995 for a new life in America, bearing his love child. She lived for many years in Florida with her second husband, daughter Vicky and son Mark Jnr. Played by Susan Tully.
Sharon, who was infertile, offered to buy the tiny tot and Spencer wanted to be a father, but ever the single-minded gal, Vicki took matters into her own hands and ended the pregnancy.
Johnson explained the reason for the change in 2004: "The producers knew that I had to have an American accent when I came into the show because my character had been living in America but it's not the kind of accent that you'd want to have for a long time on a show like EastEnders.
Whereas Sharon had been Den's Princess, Vicky careered back into the Square as a teenager with an american accent to establish herself as Den's Queen. But she had her work cut out to surpass her sparkling sister in daddy's estimations. Fairly rapidly she wound up in trouble - pregnant with Spencer Moon's baby.
Michelle remained central to the programme for 10 years and became one of the most popular characters of her time. She was written out of it in 1995 when Tully decided to move on. Tully since took up directing, and directed several episodes of EastEnders.
