Stephen MacGregor

Stephen MacGregor was the brother of Mark Gibbs and friend of Kenneth Boyd. After Mark began a rivalry with Luke Morgan when Luke accidentally broke his leg during a football match in 1999, Stephen and Kenny would help Mark terrorise Luke. In January 2000, Stephen slashed Luke's car tyres and attacked him when Luke confronted him, telling Luke that he had ruined his brother's career.
In March 2000, Stephen, Mark and Kenny cornered Luke in the changing rooms, putting his clothes in the toilet and trashing the room so the caretaker would blame Luke. After Luke threw a rock through Mark's car windscreen and slammed his leg in the car door, a car chase ensued, with the group catching up to Luke when his car got stuck in a pothole. Kenny and Stephen pinned Luke to his car, and Mark raped Luke.
Despite putting Luke through a horrific ordeal, Stephen, Kenny and Mark would continue to taunt Luke until he reported them for the rape in May 2000. The trio were later arrested and had bail refused. At the trial in October 2000, the trio were found guilty on charges of rape and actual bodily harm. The judge sentenced Kenny and Stephen to 3 years, 6 months imprisonment for being an accomplice, whilst Mark was sentenced to 8 years.
In August 2021, Luke's fiancée Cindy Cunningham and sister Zara discovered that their mother Sue had been visiting Stephen from at least December 2001. Cindy later wrote to Stephen, warning him to stay away from Hollyoaks. However, Luke's son Oliver Morgan contacted Stephen in January 2022 in order to meet with him, leading to Stephen bumping into Luke. Luke - suffering from frontotemporal dementia - did not recognise Stephen, who attempted to apologise to Luke for what he put him through. However, Luke's sister Zara was enraged by his arrival and prepared to hit him with a rock: only not doing so as Ollie stopped her. Stephen left the village afterwards.
The actor playing Stephen was never credited in any appearances from 1999 to 2000.
