Maya Stepney Storyline
Maya Stepney was a history teacher at Hotten Academy who was in a relationship with David Metcalfe following the breakdown of her marriage to local GP, Liam Cavanagh.
she groomed David’s sixteen-year-old former step-son and also her pupil, Jacob Gallagher, and manipulated him into believing that it was a proper full-blown legal relationship.
In March 2018, Maya, Liam and Liam’s daughter Leanna went for dinner at David’s Shop as shop owner David Metcalfe wanted to suck up to Liam as he was on the judging panel for the Hotten Retail Awards.
Everyone was enjoying themselves until David’s wife Tracy, thinking David was ashamed of her, blurted out she used to work as a prostitute. Maya, Liam, and Leanna made their excuses and left.
Stepney and David began meeting again in June 2018, and Maya confided in David that she and Liam were having marital problems. She and David bonded over their marital problems and began an affair. However, Liam found out and nearly punched David.
Tracy also discovered the pair together and told David that she no longer wanted a reconciliation. Despite this, David and Maya struck up an affair. However, not long after. David told his father Eric Pollard that his relationship with Maya was a mistake.
Maya found out that Tracy had terminated his child without his knowledge, and comforted David, leading to a vulnerable David to sleep with Maya again.
she and Liam divorced and Maya found herself homeless as Liam had sold their house, which was in his name. David allowed Maya to move in and she agreed until David mistook Maya for Leyla Harding and pounced on her. Maya was reluctant to trust David again and found somewhere else to live temporarily.
When student Noah Dingle was forced out of his home by Kim Tate, Maya felt sympathetic towards Noah and gave him an opportunity to talk to someone.
she helped Noah whilst his mother was busy at her granddaughter’s bedside, doing things such as helping Noah home. Maya’s employer Jessie Grant was concerned with the way Maya and Noah’s relationship would look and, despite David’s step-son Jacob Gallagher and David defending her, Maya was instructed to see Jessie in her office after school the next day.
then started grooming Jacob Gallagher when he was 15 and started having sex with him when he was 16. Jacob’s girlfriend, Liv, who he had just dumped to be with Maya, walked in on them having sex and started blackmailing them for £5000. Though this was later increased to £10000.
On the big night out, Maya was seen by Priya kissing Jacob. Priya then told Leyla and Tracy. Maya wasn’t seen again until the flashback episodes where Maya accused Jacob of sexually assaulting her and threatened to call the police on him but the girls knew she was lying.
Maya finally admitted to having sex with Jacob but claimed it was consensual. Leyla then hit her over the head with a rock after Maya boasted about her sex life with Jacob, but it was later revealed that Maya had survived and was in a hotel room with Jacob Gallagher, which was shocking as many people thought she had died.
After months of abusing Jacob into a relationship, she was finally arrested, suspended from her job, and carted off in handcuffs. It was then David’s responsibility to inform the village of the crime she had been committing and everyone was horrified to hear what she had done, except for Liam who acted shifty about the news.
She then made a surprise return to the village and was spotted by Eric Pollard. Eric told her to end her relationship with Jacob or he’d call the police. Maya ended her and Jacob’s relationship and admitted she used him.
