Gavin James Rodwell was the son of Michael Rodwell and Susan Meldrum. When Gavin was only three years old, his mother and father split up and he hadn't seen his dad since. Years later Michael would regret losing contact with his son and still held him in his thoughts. In the New Year, Andy confessed to work colleague and girlfriend Steph Britton (who believed he was called Gavin) about his true identity. She decided to keep it a secret as Michael was to undergo heart surgery.
