I am 3rd youngest of the Brady children, Roman, Kim, and Bo. I was involved briefly with David Banning, but after he dumped me I began seeing Chris Kositchek. In 1986 I left Salem, but later returned and set up a clinic on the Riverfront, where I met and fell in love with Steve Johnson. I befriended Adrienne Johnson, and we roomed together. Harper Deveraux hired me to be his son Jack's nurse. Jack fell in love with me and we eventually married because Steve continued to reject me (he saw how happy I made Jack, who was dying).
Soon after I married Jack, I was poisoned by Harper Deveraux, who thought I had discovered that Jack was adopted. I was taken from the Deveraux house by Steve, and when I awoke I refused to believe anyone was poisoning me. I ran away, and was found passed out on the pier by Melissa Jannings, who became the prime suspect in her attempted murder.
Steve and I began to meet behind Jack's back, and when we were exposed in the papers Jack was humiliated. Jack raped me and had Steve beaten up. Steve and Jack faced off on a rooftop and Jack fell off. Jack was rushed to the hospital but required a kidney transplant. His best chance for a successful match was his brother, and Steve agreed to donate the kidney because their mother Jo asked him to. I filed for divorce from Jack and charged Jack with rape, but Jack's connections managed to get him off. Soon afterwards I went back to work the Riverfront Emergency Clinic I started in 1986.
Later that year I was attacked by the Riverfront Knifer. During the attack an explosion caused me to lose my hearing and speech, and I blacked out the face of my attacker. When I finally recalled who attacked me I went to my sister Kimberly to reveal that Harper was the Riverfront Knifer. Unfortunately Harper took Kim and me hostage, but we were eventually saved by Steve Johnson.
After I was safe I underwent surgery to repair my hearing. The surgery was a success, but it didn't restore my speech. Steve proposed to me and I accepted. On July 28, 1988 Steve and I wed, and during the wedding my speech returned and I was able to say "I do." Steve and I honeymooned in the Orient where we came upon a little deaf boy named Benji. Benji was all alone and when his mom couldn't be found we took him in.
Steve and I brought Benji back to Salem and we even considered adopting Benji but his mother Ellen showed up. Ellen confessed that Benji's father was a dangerous man and to protect him she let us take care of him. Later after their talk Ellen was found dead on the pier. Eventually it came out that Benji was the son of Stefano DiMera. Benji's grandfather Orion eventually picked Benji up and took him where they could live in safety.
Later in 1988 Jack Deveraux helped Victor Kiriakis stage a jail break for Harper. Jack was promised a share of Harper's money just as soon as Harper was out of the country. The plan failed, and Harper was shot trying to get to the airport. When Jack took him to the Riverfront Clinic, Harper took me hostage again. Steve managed to save me, and Harper went back to prison.
In 1989 Steve found a badly burnt Nick and agreed to hide him and keep his secret. Steve eventually had to tell me about Nick. After Nick was strong enough he left Steve and my care and relocated to an old mansion he owned. Unfortunately the mansion only brought bad luck to Nick. An old acquaintance named Eddie was holding Eve hostage there and was looking for some old money of Harper Deveraux's that Nick had hidden there. Steve and I helped Nick try to lure Eddie into a trap but we were accused of conspiring to hide stolen money. Eventually Eddie was shot and killed, and as a thank you Nick gave the old mansion to Steve and me.
Just when Steve and I learned we were expecting, and just when we thought our life had returned to normal, Marina Toscano Johnson showed up, claiming to be Steve's wife. Steve was indeed married to her, and believed he had killed her when they got into an argument on a ship and she fell overboard. Marina didn't want Steve back, she just wanted his help in retrieving an old key they had thrown into the sea long ago. I encouraged Steve to help her in hopes she would grant him a divorce, and we all traveled to Italy to retrieve the key.
After it was found Steve got into a fight with some of Victor Kiriakis' men, and his glass eye and socket was damaged beyond repair, forcing him to wear his patch again. Back in Salem I confronted Marina for the danger she had put her family in, and we argued in her hotel room. I pushed Marina down and left her very much alive. Unfortunately I was kidnapped by Victor Kiriakis who wanted the real key Marina had hidden in Steve's and my house.
When Isabella handed over the real key to Victor, I was safely returned to Steve. I was very pregnant at the time, and Steve and I wanted to remarry before the baby's birth. Unfortunately I was arrested during the wedding for the murder of Marina Toscano. Victor Kiriakis had sent Roman II/John Black and Abe a tape on which I threatened to kill Marina, pushed Marina down, and left the room. The tape had been doctored, but Roman II/John was forced to arrest me. I stood trial for the murder of Marina Toscano and was eventually found guilty.
Falsely convicted of murder, I was sent to prison. I gave birth to our daughter Stephanie on February 19, 1990 and I allowed Steve to raise our baby. Steve hired a woman named Kelly Parker as the baby's nanny. Unknown to Steve, Kelly was actually a deranged woman named Sheila Salsbury who had lost her baby in birth at the time that I had mine. Sheila, who had become obsessed with the baby, kidnapped Stephanie when I escaped from prison.
Steve and I fled the country and followed Sheila to Australia, where we met up with Bo and Hope. With Bo and Hope's help, Steve and I managed to recover our child. When we had learned that I was exonerated of Marina's death, we decided to return to Salem. In 1990 Harper Deveraux escaped from prison and vowed to have his revenge on Steve. At Steve's and my second wedding, Harper planned to execute Steve from the church bell tower. Jack learned of Harper's plan and stopped him by pushing him to his death from the top of the belltower. The wedding went on as planned and we were legally married on August 13, 1990.
Steve decided to change his life and become a police officer. While patrolling the harbor late one night, Steve spotted a suspicious looking boat. When he investigated it he found a card that was addressed to Bo Brady and was from Lawrence Alamain. Suddenly the boat exploded. Steve was knocked into a coma, but eventually came around. Because he was a threat to Lawrence, Lawrence had his IV poisoned and Steve died.
Before his coffin was buried it was switched with an empty casket. Grief stricken, I moved in with my sister's ex-husband Shane Donovan and vowed to find my husband's killer. Shane and I worked together and all the fingers pointed at one person, Lawrence Alamain. Eventually Shane and I fell in love, but problems arose between me and my sister Kimberly when Kim returned to Salem in 1991.
At a museum party in 1992, Shane's attempt to disarm a bomb planted by the Torres failed and he was left paralyzed. Shane refused to have surgery that could restore the use of his legs. Shane put up a wall that took a while to penetrate. I helped Shane recover and we realized that we had fallen in love. Shane eventually regained the use of his legs, but the tension between my sister Kim and I put a strain on Shane's relationship with me. I eventually took my daughter and left Salem and moved to Los Angeles to work in a clinic and Shane left Salem to return to England.
Recently I returned to Salem and was shocked to see Steve who was very much alive. He has amnesia and doesn't remember being Steve. I am overjoyed to be reunited with the only true love of my life and I'm trying to help him remember who he is and the love we shared.
