and Carrie Nicholls
. Carrie had been a nurse taking care of Tom's wife Mary as she was dying of cancer and their relationship continued after Mary's death, resulting in Carrie getting pregnant. After Scarlett was born, Tom ended the relationship but offered to secretly provide financial support for Carrie. Carrie refused this but allowed Tom to finance Scarlett attending a private girl's school.
immediately realised that she was their half-sister and all three sons were shocked to learn that Tom had left her 25% of Home Farm and 10% of King and Sons to be held in trust until her 18th birthday. Carrie confirmed Jimmy's suspicions and told them that she and Tom had had a relationship but Tom refused to either acknowledge Scarlett publicly or tell them about his new girlfriend, worried about how they would think of him.
Each of Tom's sons reacted differently to the discovery of their new half-sister. Jimmy wanted to get to know Scarlett. Matthew wanted to buy her out of the business and Carl saw her existence as a betrayal of his mother's memory.
Carrie was outraged to learn that the King brothers had been charged with their father's murder and warned them to stay away from Scarlett. She also asked them to buy her out as she was acting as Scarlett's trustee, which delighted Matthew. He wanted the shares cheap and to make sure this happened, he cut off all payments to Carrie, one of which was Scarlett's school fees. The school told Carrie the fees had not been paid and suspended Scarlett so Carrie confronted Matthew, having told Scarlett to stay in the car. However, Scarlett saw Jimmy and recognised him as he had recently visited Carrie and she followed him. She heard raised voices and after hearing Carrie refer to her as their “flesh and blood”, burst into the room and demanded an explanation. Jimmy explained that she was their half-sister but had only just discovered her existence after their father's death. Shocked, Scarlett ran away and Jimmy went after her, finding her on the main road. He took her to visit Tom's grave and told her that their father was “a good man”. On returning to Pear Tree Cottage, Scarlett asked Carrie why she hadn't told her that she had four brothers and Carrie replied that they were due to stand trial for conspiracy to murder her father. Shocked, Scarlett left with Carrie. Jimmy reassured her it was not true and they became close, Scarlett was also keen to get to know Matthew and Carl, much to Carrie's dismay.
On one of Scarlett's first visits to the village, she met Daz Eden
. She soon fell in love with him but he only saw her as a friend and started dating his classmate Penny Drury. Scarlett was heartbroken when she found out but continued to pine for Daz, much to Victoria Sugden's amusement. When Daz found out that Penny and Victoria had made fun of Scarlett, he was angry but went looking for Scarlett and on finding her, made it clear he was flattered but he was still dating Penny.
A few months later, Carrie and Scarlett were visited by Scarlett's aunt, Lexi
. Scarlett loved and admired Lexi but Carrie was indifferent to her and was shocked to discover that Lexi spent a year in prison in Mexico for drug trafficking. Scarlett was more concerned. The situation was tense between Carrie and Lexi and during a heated argument, Lexi told Carrie she knew that Carrie was her birth mother. Carrie refused to confirm that she was Lexi's mother so she left. When Lexi returned, Scarlett found out that Lexi was her half-sister and only her aunt by adoption and was horrified to discover that her mother had kept another secret hidden from her. Scarlett had gone from being an only child to suddenly being the youngest of six siblings. Eventually, Scarlett forgave Carrie and recognized Lexi as her sister, and they lived together until Carrie moved to Canada in February 2008.
Scarlett still had feelings for Daz and was happy to hear that he and Penny had split up. Persuaded by Lexi and Scarlett, Carrie and Jimmy agreed Scarlett could have a small party with a few friends. Victoria, however, announced the party on the internet so a large number of people arrived at Home Farm. Scarlett got herself drunk and told Daz she loved him, dragging him on to the sofa and kissing him, until they were interrupted by Jimmy and Carrie. Jimmy was enraged and chased Daz down the driveway.
Lexi persuaded Jimmy to let Scarlett go out with Daz and gave him money. When Scarlett found out, she felt humiliated. Carrie's relationship with Jimmy didn't last and she decided to emigrate to Canada. Scarlett did not want to go and Daz wanted her to stay as well. He revealed his feelings for her and they started dating. Lexi tried to take over as Scarlett's trustee, jealous of her younger sister's trust fund and determined to get some of the money for herself, but Matthew was appointed her new trustee. Disappointed in her older sister when this was revealed, Scarlett insisted on moving into Home Farm with her brothers, no longer wanting to live with Lexi.
On Scarlett's return from visiting Carrie in Canada, she lost interest in her schoolwork, feeling her inheritance from her father would get her through life. When she failed her GCSEs, Jimmy insisted she do resits at college. At Daz's suggestion, Scarlett bribed Zak Dingle
to take her shopping instead of to college. When Jimmy and Zak's granddaughter Debbie
found out, Jimmy nearly cancelled his contract with Debbie's garage, and Debbie nearly fired Zak. Scarlett then saw the consequences of her behaviour, and pledged to become more attentive to her education.
Things went well for Scarlett and Daz until she discovered he was having trouble paying his rent. She offered to have a word with Carl, who was his landlord, but Daz refused her offer so she suggested she move in with her, telling him that she could get round Jimmy's objections. Daz did not want to live with her, asking Jake Doland to move in instead as he was homeless. Jake suggested making the place a mess and then Scarlett would not want to move in. Jake was proved right when Scarlett saw the messy state of the house.
In December 2008, Scarlett's life fell to pieces when her bank got a court order to wind up King and Sons, due to their debts. On Matthew and Anna De Souza
's wedding day, Carl visited the solicitor who revealed that Anna's father, Donald De Souza
, was responsible for their financial trouble. Donald had recently died, leaving an interest in his company to Anna, making Carl realise that Matthew, as her husband, would stand to gain from the company's failing. This led to Carl and Matthew fighting, and ended in Matthew's death when he tried to run Carl over in a van. Following this, Scarlett, Carl and Jimmy were questioned and spent the night at the police station. The following day, she and her family faced losing everything. They were evicted from Home Farm and moved into Mill Cottage, which was owned by Carl and not the company. Scarlett argued with Carl and was upset by Matthew's death and the family's money problems. Carl thought she only cared about her trust fund being reduced but she offered it to them. Jimmy refused to take it, however, telling Scarlett that Tom had left the fund to her and it was not enough to help them.
Whilst she and Lexi packed their personal possessions, Scarlett told Lexi that she wanted to join their mother in Canada, feeling depressed with life in the village. Lexi pointed out that with all the recent events, it was not a good time to make big decisions and suggested that she did not leave until after Christmas. In January, Scarlett agreed to give life in the village a second chance when Carl started a new company and she decided to help him.
Carl bought a truck and started Emmerdale Haulage and Scarlett began working as his personal assistant. After being accidentally shot, Jimmy received £10,000 compensation if he agreed not to press charges and began helping Carl and Scarlett with the new company and took over as Scarlett's trustee.
Lexi, worried about her relationship with Carl, proposed marriage. The wedding date was set for 31 March and Lexi asked Scarlett to be her bridesmaid. Scarlett was thrilled and accepted.
In April, Scarlett and Daz went to Dublin for the weekend but the trip was unsuccessful as Daz was worried about Victoria possibly expecting his baby following a one night stand. When challenged, she revealed it was a false alarm but Scarlett was devastated to discover that Daz had cheated on her with his own foster sister and ended their relationship. Jimmy, Carl and Lexi knew there was a problem but Scarlett refused to explain. Daz's half-brother Andy Sugden asked Scarlett not to tell anyone and she agreed as she felt ashamed and humiliated and Daz later left the village.
In June, Scarlett discovered that Lexi was trying for a baby with Carl and by July, Lexi was pregnant. But the pregnancy was ectopic and Lexi discovered that, without IVF, she was unlikely to conceive again. Scarlett and Jimmy's girlfriend, Nicola De Souza, supported her and Scarlett offered to pay for her and Carl to go to a private clinic. Lexi agreed, unaware that Carl did not want any more children, but changed her mind when she and Carl agreed that being together was more important. Seeing Carl with his newborn niece Angelica, however, hurt Lexi so much that when Carl told her they would never have a family together, she left him and went to Canada. Scarlett joined her at their mother's and returned to Emmerdale in September to find Jimmy, Nicola, Angelica, Carl and his new girlfriend and ex-lover, Chas Dingle
, living at Mill Cottage. Furious, she sided with Nicola and they rejected Chas until Carl insisted they either accept her or move out. They accepted Chas and made an effort to get on.
In December, Scarlett celebrated her 18th birthday. Realising that Nicola was planning to spend her inheritance for her, she said she was leaving it in her trust fund until she was 21. Nicola was furious but Scarlett told Jimmy that she had her inheritance but did not want Nicola to know.
