Gill Holmes

Gill Holmes is the mother of Joseph Holmes. Scott Drinkwell - the foster father of Joseph's girlfriend Vicky Grant - and Felix Westwood - the father of Joseph's nemesis DeMarcus Westwood, who was accused of killing P.C. Saul Reeves - visited Gill in August 2022. As they prepared to break into her house, Gill interrupted and invited them in, assuming that they were a couple: the 'Buttershaws' who were booked to view the house as it was for sale. Gill was initially rude towards the pair and was paranoid as they looked around the house.
Finding 'Ralph' in Joseph's bedroom, Gill furiously confronted him, but Felix pretended to be measuring the room. Gill - unaware that Felix had searched the room for evidence that Joseph killed Saul (and found some) - eventually relaxed after asking the pair about how they met. She revealed that Joseph's father was doing "dirty deals" in Dubai, and hinted that she was selling the house to protect Joseph.
After Vicky discovered evidence that proved that Joseph had killed Saul and sent it to Scott, Joseph was arrested. Gill supported him in court as his solicitor Julian King advised him to plead guilty to perverting the course of justice. After breaching his bail conditions when Grace Black lured him to Warren's Wheels with Vicky's phone, Joseph broke under Zoe's intense questioning and to Gill's horror, ended up making a confession.
Gill found herself in legal trouble when DeMarcus began receiving abusive text messages from Joseph's phone, which was not in his possession. After being confronted by Felix, as well as Vicky's foster father Scott Drinkwell, Gill confessed to sending the messages and apologised profusely, but Felix realised that someone else had been sending DeMarcus death threats.
