## Background

Jeremy grew up with her mom, dad, and younger sister Dani. He never met his sister, Virginia, until she awoke from her coma.

## Storylines

Jeremy first appears at the opening of the Montford Town Square, and is overwhelmed by all of his newfound family.

It took Jeremy a while to be an active part of Lisa's life, but he did visit the family while she was at rehab and attended the Thanksgiving meal in her honour.

Jeremy calls a family meeting and reveals Misty was beaten by Amari. Dani suggested going to the police, but Lisa wanted her mother out of the situation before going. That night, Amari is killed by a masked figure which turned out to be Jeremy. Jeremy tearfully reveals he killed Amari. Dani tells her brother that she killed Everest in self defence, too, and the two agree to keep quiet about the others' actions.

Jeremy is going steady with Joaquin, much to Lisa’s upset. Lisa finds out that he is married to Riya and tells him to dump Jeremy.

Jeremy starts to spiral during his relationship with Joaquin LeChien, and drunkenly confesses to him that he and Dani are killers while on a date at the beach house. The next day Jeremy asks Joaquin to come over to his mum’s old house so he can explain what he meant. Joaquin turns up waiting for an explanation when Dani smashes a bottle over his head. A few hours later he wakes up locked in the house. Dani and Jeremy walk in and tell him he can’t tell anyone what he heard, and they can’t risk it. Jeremy pleads with Dani to let Joaquin go but she tells him she isn’t risking it. Dani forces Joaquin to eat an apple laced with cyanide and to write a suicide note. Joaquin does so and eats the apple. Jeremy runs out the room and is devastated that his boyfriend has died. Dani sends her brother to a retreat in Arizona to heal, and decides to leave town for a little.

Dani is next seen when she meets Cassidy in the Grand Lake Athletic Club and they flirt. They quickly start a relationship, and Cassidy moves out of the DuMont mansion to live with Dani. The next mention of Dani is when Hanna reveals she and Cassidy have gone on a sightseeing trip around Africa and aren't sure when they'll be back. A few months later, Hanna mentions that Dani and Cassidy are living in San Francisco.
