==Biography==
===1994-2019: Early Life===
Toby was one of three triplets born to Martine Deveraux and Felix Westwood on 10th March 1994. Felix sold two of the triplets to Ramsey Ley (who named them Toby and Celeste Faroe) for £50,000, as the third triplet - named Mitchell - wasn't expected to survive.
With the two children, Ley carried out a "nature vs. nurture" experiment, documenting her findings in her book. The experiment involved Toby spending his life locked in a room, whilst Celeste was treated normally - the pair separated by a red door. In 2007, Celeste discovered that Toby was behind the door and slid a key underneath, with the pair learning of the experiment and setting the facility ablaze.
===2019: Arrival in Hollyoaks===
Toby arrived in the village with his sister (believed to be wife at the time) Celeste to view a flat, previously owned by Mitchell Deveraux. Toby and Celeste introduced themselves to Scott Drinkwell. After they decided to purchase the flat, they introduced themselves to their neighbours, Mandy Morgan and Darren Osborne. The pair were eager to impress Toby and Celeste, which the pair tried to use to their own advantage.
The pair also introduced themselves to Jesse Donovan and Courtney Campbell, and also decided to make a fool out of Jesse by telling him that they wanted to use his salon to style their models and actors for music videos. Jesse, in his excitement, posted a vague comment to social media about having a potentially famous client at the salon, which they saw and told Jesse that the client had been put off by the post, having previously asked Jesse to keep quiet about the client. He and Celeste secretly took enjoyment in Jesse's disappointment, laughing at him behind his back.
===2019-2020: Revelation and revenge plan===
Toby and Celeste began watching the Deveraux family closely. They attended a sermon held by Walter Deveraux in December 2019, with Toby getting angry over Walter being a hypocrite as he talks of “Martine’s precious son”, when they cast their own son out, whispering this to Celeste. Toby was anxious to confront Martine and reveal his identity to her, but ended up changing his mind. Celeste revealed that she had a photo of Mitchell kissing Scott Drinkwell, which she planned to use to destroy to the family due to Walter's homophobic views.
On New Year's Day, Mandy had her drink spiked by Juliet Quinn, and ended up in Celeste and Toby's flat by mistake. The pair worried that she had overheard their plan. They decided to take Mandy and Darren out for a drink to see if Mandy knew anything, and took the opportunity to try make fools out of them. Toby gave Darren his business card so he could go into the studio and Celeste convinced Mandy to let her see her portfolio to send to modelling agencies, only for Toby to revoke his offer to Darren and tell Mandy that the agencies did not have the reaction expected to Mandy's portfolio.
Toby and Celeste decided to throw a housewarming party in an attempt to get closer to the Deverauxes, inviting some of the other villagers to be more subtle. Toby discovered from Walter that Martine did not raise Mitchell, but he and his wife, Gloria, did so. However, the party ended abruptly when Mitchell was arrested. Lisa Loveday apologised to Toby on her family's behalf and flirted with Toby, and Celeste and Toby realised that she was their way into the family.
Toby later visited Lisa in the flat and planted the photo in one of Walter's books, which he found. Mitchell eventually came out to Walter, who reacted badly and threw Mitchell out. Toby felt guilty over what happened but Celeste was delighted, and convinced Toby that he was doing the right thing.

===2021-2022: Relationship with Cleo McQueen and Salon de Thé Explosion===
Toby falls in love with Cleo McQueen and asks her out, but his unnerving attitude and raised voice dissuades her. He insists that he was having a bad day, and Cleo agrees to date him again.
In 2022, Toby is accosted by undercover police officer, Saul Reeves (alias Nate Denby), who believes that he either killed or was a part of Lisa's murder. His sister and father, who know the truth, aimlessly and unsuccessfully try to throw Nate off the scent, but to no avail. Following an altercation, Toby and Nate get into an argument, leading into a fight, which renders the latter unconscious. Toby, believing that he has killed someone else, runs to Celeste, who is attending a fundraising event at the Salon de Thé, and forces her to the side. This causes a coffee machine (possibly) to start sparking. He plans to confess the truth; that he killed Lisa, and in front of his unsuspecting family, and girlfriend. However, the sparks, combined with a smoke bomb (thrown in the salon by Becky Quentin) causes the salon to burst into flames. This traps Toby, Celeste, Cleo and Martine (Felix was present, but was blown out of the salon by the force of the explosion).
In the rubble, while the others attempt to escape the wreck, Toby confesses to his loved ones that he killed Lisa, and later reveals to Martine that he had planned to kill Mitchell. Martine and Cleo, understandably livid, haven't got a lot of time to react; Felix attempts to rescue them, and Martine and Cleo are able to escape. Celeste, however, re-enters the scene to comfort Toby, who refuses to leave. Celeste decides to stay with him until he decides to leave, and it turns out, he had no plans to.
