| - Grant married Sharon in 1991 but soon after the magic begun to fade and he begun to treat her badly. He was out a lot of nights, leaving her lonely and when he was there to run the pub, he was very moody and nasty to her. He often was prone to terrible rages. In 1992, when he finds out Sharon is taking contraception, he smashes up the pub and flees. While Grant is away, Sharon seeks comfort in Grant's older and more gentle brother Phil. They even end up sleeping together. One minute they were looking at each other and the next they were ripping each others clothes off. They then decided it as a mistake and they both lived with the guilt. Phil felt guilty and ashamed for betraying his brother Grant. In 1993, Phil found out Grant had hit Sharon during a row so Phil threatened to kill Grant if he touches her again. Sharon later confessed to best friend Michelle Fowler that she had slept with Phil. In 1994, Phil almost confesses to his affair when he tells Grant he accidentally killed someone in the car lot fire earlier that year, which him and Frank Butcher did as an insurance job, as Frank was strapped for cash, and Phil owed him a favour. Frank vanished soon after the fire. But Sharon and her best friend Michelle Fowler recorded a conversation they had about their lives and their friendship, also that she had slept with Phil. She inadvertently left the tape in her and Grant's car, ready for Grant to, curiously play the tape.
