Paul Trueman had a less-than-reputable-past, which often created problems for him in his new life running the Abercorn B & B with brother Anthony and acting-father Patrick.
Storylines involved his relationship with Gangster Angel Hudson's wife Precious, a baby left on his doorstep who proved to be a daughter he was unaware of (Eleanor) but who was taken away by Social Services, his relationship with Janine Butcher which inadvertently led to Barry Evans' death, his guilty feelings & subsequent relationship with Natalie Evans which ended when he revealed his complicity in Barry's death, discovering that his father Patrick was not really his father (dad's best friend, Milton Hibbert fathered him with mum Audrey), as well as his early attempts to emotionally blackmail brother Anthony because Paul had taken the rap as a teenager for a car accident when Ant was driving. After surviving all this, Paul decided to leave Walford and join brother Anthony in traveling Europe after Natalie broke up with him and Janine was jailed for Laura Beale's death.
Paul returned to the Square to see Patrick and Yolande marry and was persuaded by Anthony (who also returned for the wedding) to stay in Walford. Paul grassed Andy Hunter to the Police for his shady dealings, which would prove to be his undoing as well, as Andy had him killed by The Firm.
