Cassie's Parents?

[Danifan]

Did we ever find out what happened to Cassie's mum and dad and how she ended up living with her nan. I don't remember her ever mentioning either of her parents and the uncle that abused her was never really specified as to which parent he was actually related to. Have i missed something?

I don't remember it being mentioned much. I think Cassie didn't get on with her mother, or her mother didn't want her around or something, so she went to live with her gran. At least I think that's what happened.

In Belgium we just saw the episode where Cassie's grandmother ends up in hospital.

I'm wondering to where Cassie's parents are?

Maybe they died?

Yeah, nothing was ever mentioned about her parents as far as I can remember.

Her gran and her Uncle are the only ones I can remember being shown, but then again, my memory is not too good

I didn't think any parents had been mentioned. The only relatives that have been mentioned are her gran, uncle and her cousin(?).

[Danifan]

Thanks for that, i just find it strange that loads of storyline possibilities could come out of it and yet her childhood/parentage seems to have been totally ignored.

It's probably been left open intentionally so that they can turn up out of the blue one day!

From the official site:

Her independence and strong-will is a direct result of her upbringing. Cassie's mother dumped her with her grandmother, Joy, when she was six years old. Joy was the only family that Cassie had ever known. She adored her Nan and was devastated when the decision was made to turn off her life support machine.

So the minute Cassie starts talking about one of her parents, as if by magic they will probably pop up as they always do.
