About Matt
Matt first arrived in Charnham in November 2000, along with his longtime girlfriend Karen Webb. They went to stay with Matt's sister, Nikki Warrington and her family. Matt had always wanted to marry Karen but she always rejected his proposal because she wasn't ready yet. [citation needed] Eventually, Karen accepted Matt's proposal but before preparations could get under way, Karen was diagnosed with Breast cancer and the surgery left her unable to have children. Matt and Karen went ahead with the wedding and decided to look for a surrogate mother. Kelly Hurst, the lesbian niece of local resident Sadie Hargreaves offered to be the surrogate mother for Matt and Karen. [citation needed]
Matt and Karen's marriage was shattered when Karen began an affair with Kelly. Matt began licking his wounds by dating Anna Gregory, a tenant from the local housing project at Number 14 Stanley Street run by Roy Farmer, A Fierce custody battle over the Baby ensued which culminated in Kelly's death in December 2002, caused by falling down the stairs after an argument with Matt. [citation needed]
In September 2003, Matt and Karen decided to leave Charnham along with baby Grace and Karen's brother Jim to join Jim's son Paul Webb over in Spain.[citation needed]
