Faye Windass Faye Windass ( née Butler ) is the biological daughter of Tim Metcalfe and Jenny Butler who was adopted by Eddie and Anna Windass when she ended up in care following her mother ' s drug addiction . Biography . 2001 - 2013 : Adoption . Faye was introduced by social worker Hilary Pugsley to Eddie and Anna in January 2011 . Soon after , their son Gary unexpectedly came to live with them after being discharged from the army for assault . This caused problems and his criminal record affected their chances of fostering . Despite this , Faye visited No . 6 again in February 2011 and stayed the night . She stayed again for longer in March 2011 but was annoyed and stormed off when Anna looked through her bag , although Gary managed to convince her that Eddie and Anna were good parents . However , Eddie made a mistake by washing her blanket which smelt of her mother and this resulted in her packing her bags and Hilary taking her back to her foster home . After some time apart , Faye came to live with the Windasses permanently in April 2011 . Shortly after moving in , Faye accompanied Anna on a visit to neighbour Fiz Stape , since Anna was concerned for Chesney [ who she had almost become a mother figure to ] and his partner Katy Armstrong . Whilst in the toilet , Faye stole a handbag which contained £500 and gave it to Anna as a present . Anna saw the money inside , returned it , and forced her to admit she ' d stolen it from Fiz . This led Eddie to believe Faye was a problem child , but Anna insisted that he simply wasn ' t making any effort with her . Faye overheard Eddie and Anna arguing and told Gary that she saw Eddie hit Anna . Eddie denied it and wondered why Faye would lie , but Faye subsequently denied telling lies . Hilary arrived at No . 6 and told Eddie and Anna that Faye ' s birth mother had died from a suspected heroin overdose , asking them to tell Faye . Anna wanted Faye to have a nice day before delivering the news . Eddie , however , refused to show positivity for her , and didn ' t think the burden of telling Faye about her mother ' s death was theirs . Faye overheard part of the conversation and thought he was complaining about her . Eddie also inadvertently revealed Faye ' s mothers death before the picnic they ' d planned . He tried to apologise to Anna by proposing but she perceived it as insensitivity towards Faye . Eddie admitted that he only undertook the adoption process to make Anna happy and didn ' t want to be a father again , and Anna was hurt that he ' d lied . Still believing Faye to be a problem child , he made Anna choose between them , but she made it clear that if pushed , she would choose Faye . When Eddie decided to leave , Faye thought he was leaving because of her , but he told her he was simply going to Germany for a few weeks . Eddie left and Anna realised that his departure could threaten Faye ' s fostering . In May 2011 , Faye overheard Anna talking to Katy about morning sickness and asked if she was pregnant . When Anna didn ' t deny it , Faye told Katy ' s father Owen . This led to Katy accusing Anna of telling Owen . Anna subsequently asked Faye if she had told Owen but she furiously denied it . In November 2011 , Faye ' s adoption process completed and her name was changed to Windass . 2013 - 2014 : School troubles . In September 2013 , Faye made friends with Grace Piper . Grace and Faye bullied Simon Barlow even though it was mostly Grace ' s fault as she pushed Faye into joining in . In November , Faye and Grace made Simon dress up as a girl in one of Amy Barlow ' s dresses after her mother Tracy asked Faye and Grace to walk Eccles , the Barlows ' dog and to look after Amy and Simon . Grace filmed Faye covering Simon in Tracy ' s make - up and physically abusing him . Asha Alahan got hold of the video and Mary Taylor saw it and showed Simon ' s father Peter . He in turn showed Anna the video and Faye was grounded . Peter also told Brian Packham , the head teacher of Bessie Street School who informed the police . At the police interview , Faye told the truth , but didn ' t say that Grace bullied her into it . Back at school , Faye got into a fight with Grace . After this , Faye told Anna about Grace . During June 2014 , Faye asked Norris Cole for a job delivering papers . Norris admitted that his current papergirl was no good and kept mixing up the magazines . When Norris asked if Faye was thirteen she said yes . At the same time Gary arrived in The Kabin and told Norris that she was in fact twelve . Faye got annoyed and stormed off ; later on when asked what Faye needed money for she said that she wanted to go ice skating with her friends . Gary then gave her the money and offered to be her personal chauffeur . Later that night when Gary arrived to pick up Faye he realised that she had been drinking . Gary took Faye for a coffee to sober her up before taking her home to Owen and Anna . Knowing immediately that Faye had been drinking , the men argued and Owen purposely pushed Gary over giving him a black eye in the process . 2014 - 2015 : Teenage pregnancy .

In February 2015 , Faye was horrified to discover she was pregnant after she ' d slept with a classmate called Jackson Hodge sometime during the previous summer . Facing torment by girls at school over her weight gain , she initially believed that she needed to diet . When Craig suggested the possibility that she might be pregnant after doing research online , Faye did a home pregnancy test which revealed a positive result . Although Craig tried to convince Faye to tell her mother , she had other ideas and wanted give birth in secret and drop the baby off at Weatherfield General . For the next few weeks Faye and a hesitant Craig began to plan how the handle the birth , and decided she would give birth at the empty flat above the Corner Shop . They managed to get the keys from the shop after distracting assistant Sophie Webster . Faye went into labour on 3rd April , and although she initially begged Craig not to tell either Anna or Owen , she eventually told him to fetch her mum when the pain was too unbearable . While Craig went looking for Anna , Sophie discovered Faye in the flat after hearing her screams , comforted her and called for an ambulance . Anna , Owen , Tim and Sally Webster arrived at the flat and Faye was taken by the paramedics to hospital where she gave birth to a baby girl . Faye was asked questions by DC Davies and DS Davenport but was assured she wasn ' t in trouble - they had to make sure no one had taken advantage of her . Faye remained silent , but only confirmed the boy was someone from school and admitted to Anna that she wanted Jackson to like her . Craig was suspected to be the baby ' s father and after Owen ' s confrontation with Kirk and Beth Sutherland , Faye told Owen that Craig wasn ' t the father and he ' d just been a good friend .

At Miley ' s christening service held during the following month , things got too much for Faye and she ran out of the church . After her father Tim cancelled the christening , the Hodges suggested that they looked after Miley . Tim disagreed with the idea initially , but he later invited them to No . 4 to talk and said that he would talk things through with Anna and Faye . Anna rejected the idea of Miley going to live with the Hodges , but she accompanied Tim on a visit to their house . Josie and Greig offered Anna and Tim a cheque for Miley ' s expenses for the past few months but Anna wasn ' t happy with what they were implying . However , Anna eventually realised that the Hodges were in a position to offer Miley a better future and the Windasses said goodbye to Miley when Josie came to collect her later that month . 2015 - : Moving on from Miley .
