[edit] Feud with Leigh-Ann Galloway
Mika has had problems with Leigh-Ann Galloway. They were best friends until Leigh-Ann took a photo of Mika with her top off at Brett's house when they had too much alcohol to drink and Mika encouraged them to have a threesome. Leigh-Ann started a hate website and threatened to put the photo on it.
Mika told Steph Haydock what had happened and Steph tells Mika she would find Leigh-Ann and get her excluded. Meanwhile, Mika looked at the website which said the photo will be revealed the following day.
Mika got some tablets and tried to commit suicide but Tom Clarkson and her mother Izzie Redpath found her in time.
Afterwards, Mika showed Izzie the website and there was a picture of her and Leigh-Ann together when they were friends.
[edit] Izzie's Death
In the last episode of series 2, Mika's mum Izzie was stabbed by Jed Seddon and at the start of the next series it was revealed that she had died. Having grieved for her mother, Mika tried to push on with her life, but further upset occurred when her brother-in-law, Donte revealed Chlo had slept with Brett. This led to a showdown in the hallway, resulting in Mika slapping Chlo and telling her she never wanted to see her again.
Her attitude gradually changed, as Chlo ran away from home and ended up in the clutches of a young couple who tried to prostitute her to a middle aged man. On her return home, Mika managed to forgive Chlo, but she has yet to give that level of forgiveness to Brett, although there are signs that she is starting to miss being his girlfriend, plus they are doing more things together.
[edit] Mika, the Eco-Warrior
Recently, she has been involved in green issues, and has become more active in them, much to the annoyance of Eddie Lawson, Tom and Rachel Mason. Her environmental protests nearly ended in disaster, when Tom fell off a ladder, whilst attempting to bring her down from a tree that she had been trying to protect. She had a heart-to-heart with her surrogate dad, and he agreed to see her and Chlo as young women, rather than school children. The only problem she has now is accepting Davina Shackleton as Tom's girlfriend, as she once had a one night stand with Brett as well as, perhaps out of respect for her mum.
2007/08 was the final year of Mika's A-Level studies, but it has not been confirmed whether the character will appear in series 4.
