Martin "Jono" Johnson (Dylan Llewellyn) saves Ruby but Maddie and Neil Cooper (Tosin Cole) die in the explosion. After being hospitalised, Sinead learns she is pregnant. She steals a photograph of Rhys Ashworth (Andrew Moss) who also died in the crash, giving the impression he is the father of her baby. Shortly after the crash, Jono dies in Ruby's arms from a blood clot. Sinead and Bart decide to raise the baby together, and join Ruby in pressuring Esther to keep her and Bart's involvement in the crash secret. Sinead and Ruby's mistreatment of Esther escalates to the point that Esther attempts suicide which leads her to require a liver transplant. Sinead and Ruby make a pact to keep quiet about their bullying. However, Ruby feels guilty and admits her involvement to Esther's family. Meanwhile, Diane asks Sinead if she was involved but she denies everything. Diane, however, checks Sinead's laptop and smashes it when she finds the images Sinead posted. Diane convinces Sinead to blame it all on Ruby but Ruby reveals everything at a gathering. The morning after the event, the headmaster Patrick Blake (Jeremy Sheffield) calls Sinead into his office. Sinead shows no remorse and is promptly expelled. She gets a job at Price Slice and after falling off a ladder, learns that she is having a girl. Sinead decides she no longer wants to keep her baby and plans to get rid of it but after talking to Cindy, she decides to give the baby to Diane who initially refuses to raise the baby but later changes her mind. While working at Price Slice she is held at gunpoint by Robbie Roscoe (Charlie Wernham) and her brother Finn, although they are wearing masks. Just in time Callum walks into the shop and attacks Robbie who accidentally shoots him. An ambulance is called and Sinead finds out her baby is okay. She is horrified when she learns her brother Finn was involved and slaps him, but she goes into labour. She gives birth in the back of a burnt out car with help from Esther. She is taken to hospital where the baby is checked to see if she is alright. Diane names the baby Katy and takes her home. Sinead decides she can't watch Diane raise her baby and moves in with Ste. She returns to working at Price Slice but soon decides to quit. After
