== Marriage to Nataly ==
Malcolm struggled to control his temper as he grew up and often became very heated in conflicts. He fell in love with Nataly Pfeiffer, who had just ended a marriage with Brad Marcus. Malcolm moved in with Nataly and her two kids from Brad, and the two married. Brad also occasionally stayed with them - something that Malcolm enjoyed the power of.

== Committing Murder ==
Shortly after, Malcolm travelled to San Myshuno to visit his sister, Kim who was unhappy in her marriage. Kim complained about her husband, Deon and Malcolm misinterpreted her, believing she was being mistreated. He started a feud with Deon and they got into a fight. Malcolm lost his temper and started choking Deon, accidentally killing him. Malcolm contacted Skylar Espinosa and she managed to move him out of the city without police notice. Malcolm started a life on the run from then on.
== Marriage to Viviani ==
Malcolm settled down in Sulani where things began to calm down. He began a relationship with Viviana Paewai and kept quiet about his past. Viviana married him and gave birth to his daughter Vera. Malcolm tried hard to keep his inner darkness at bay and started to believe he could live a normal happy life. However, Viviana's family then found out about Malcolm's shady past and disowned him, banishing him from the house. To avoid police capture, Malcolm got remarried to free spirit Arihi Kahola and fled Sulani into the unknown.
== Several Years Later ==
Arihi gave birth to Malcolm's third child Mathew, who they began to raise together. Arihi grew old and caught illness, passing away surrounded by Malcolm and a young Mathew. Malcolm struggled to evade police capture and put Mathew into foster care temporarily. When his grown up son Sam reached out from Brindleton Bay with an offer of hospitality, Malcolm accepted and reunited with his son, who was now married to Demi Goth-Ward with two sons Bradford and Camryn. Malcolm crossed paths with other housemates Shari and Hazel Gould as they knew about Malcolm's past - they were ultimately convinced Malcolm wanted to live the end of his life with his son and eventually moved out with Nadia Gould. Malcolm found himself flirting with Demi despite his desire to be a better man, but Demi moved out temporarily so nothing went ahead. Malcolm's other son Mathew then moved in and the two bonded a lot, upsetting a jealous Sam. Malcolm later died of old age in the Bedlington boathouse.
