Colin Hamston

Colin Hamston is a former local councillor as well as the homophobic father of Marshall Hamston.
In January 2023, Colin made a complaint to Hotten Academy, his son Marshall's school, after learning there would be an assembly about LGBT+ history month and inclusivity. As a result, the assembly was postponed. 
In March 2023, Laurel went round and barged into his house and checked on Marshall, but shortly after discovered a severe bruise on his arm, therefore truly implying Colin did physically hurt him. Laurel then insisted that Marshall came home to live with her at Mulberry Cottage and pack a few things in his bag. Before leaving, Marshall finally admitted he was gay to Colin, but his dad instantly told him his mother would be ashamed of him for being gay, and then immediately disowned and washed his hands of him.
