Stephen is Osian’s father. He held a very senior position within the Tourist Board until an investigation overseen by Lea uncovered the fact that he had been using company time and resources to facilitate his extra-marital activities. This forced his hand, and he resigned before any official action could be taken against him. An aging Lothario with a penchant for younger women, he breaks Osian’s heart when he finds Stephen in bed with another woman, and in one fell swoop shatters Osian’s illusion of his perfect little family unit. It is the final nail in the coffin when Osian finds out that Stephen’s latest conquest is the object of his affections – his guardian angel, Lea. Their relationship blossoms despite rock beginnings when Stephen moves in with Osian and Lea after his marriage breaks down. Lea is initially horrified by his libidinous, indiscreet ways, but he slowly thaws her cool exterior with his charm and wit. But how long can he keep her interested?
