Eileen Brady

Eileen Brady is the estranged wife of Brendan Brady and mother of their children, Niamh (who died shortly after birth), Declan and Paddy Brady. Eileen and Brendan split after he had an affair, and she arrived in Hollyoaks in September 2010 to speak with Brendan. Declan had been ill and Eileen needed money for him to see a specialist as the doctors refused to look over him.
In August 2011, Eileen arrived to ask Brendan to look after Declan so she could attend a wedding in The Caribbean. However, she turned up on his doorstep to find find Brendan and Ste Hay half-naked on the floor kissing. Brendan tried to tell Eileen that things were not as they seemed, but Ste told her that it was exactly how it looked and Eileen ran off. Brendan tried to convince her that things were not as they seemed, but Eileen vowed to ensure that Brendan did not see his sons ever again.
In December 2012, Brendan visited Eileen and their sons to give the Christmas presents (£100 each), but received a hostile reception from Eileen and Declan. Declan rejected his present, whilst Eileen refused to let Brendan give Paddy his present, saying that she did not want the kids to receive his "drug money". He was no longer welcome in their lives as Brendan neglected the children whilst "living [his] double life", and Declan had nearly died of a heroin overdose whilst in Brendan's care in October 2012.
