Words to sum up Adam...
Sexy, charming, cool, confident, flirtatious
In a nutshell...
There are some people who just have it all. Adam Trueman is stunning, clever, talented, rich and cool. You'd hate him if you could, but you can't because he's got a boyish charm and sense of humour noone can resist. Women adore him, men want to be him. God smiled when he created Adam - then gave him the luck of the devil. Medicine isn't a vocation for him - it's a passport to a lifestyle. He loves the cash, the cars, the chicks, the kudos.
Background...
His parents died in a car crash when he was eight, and although Adam escaped without injury, his younger brother Alex was left disabled and in a wheelchair. Although Adam claims to live the life of a playboy, he actually came to Holby to help look after Alex when his spinal injury began to deteriorate and he could no longer care for himself. Because deep down, Adam blames himself for Alex's condition - if Adam hadn't been pulled out of the car first, Alex may not have ended up in a wheelchair. Alex finally took his own life in Series 23 episode 23, leaving Adam devastated.
Love life..
Adam's the consummate player. He's snogged Zoe and had a relationship with Jessica. He would've admitted once that he didn't want emotional ties - but he and Jessica are growing closer by the minute. Will Adam be revealed as baby Harry's father, or will Sean have the last laugh?
Defining moments...
- Sleeping with Jessica without realising they'd be working together
- Kissing Zoe and discovering there was no chemistry
- Having a panic attack in a lift and making Alice deliver a baby
- The death of his brother, Alex.
- Is Adam the father of Jessica's baby? All will be revealed soon...
