Alan-Michael Spaulding - Family

Family

Alan-Michael is the only child born to the brief marriage of Alan Spaulding and Hope Bauer. His parents were mismatched from the beginning, and their relationship was fraught with difficulties. Alan's affair with Vanessa Chamberlain Reardon finally ended the marriage, which led Hope to drink. Her battle with alcoholism continued throughout Alan-Michael's early years. In 1986, Alan-Micheal fell in love with Dinah Marler. However, Cameron Stewart tried to break the couple up. Later that year, Harley Cooper came to town. Harley, who loved Cameron, teamed up with Alan-Micheal to stop Dinah and Cameron from getting closer. Much to their schemes, Dinah and Cameron could not resist temptation and began dating. Cameron left Harley and Alan-Micheal was dumped by Dinah. So Alan-Micheal wanted to get even so he and Harley began having Sex. Alan-Micheal wanted to gain his trust fund but learned from Alexandra that Alan would only let him have it if he was married or until he decides it's the right time. When Alan-Michael married Harley Cooper in 1988, his mother refused to attend, since Alan would be present at the wedding. Alan-Michael only married Harley to gain his trust fund in 1988, but despite his failure in that endeavour, he ended up falling in love with her. The marriage didn't last, however, because Alan made it seem like Harley had cheated on Alan-Michael, leading him to sleep with his Phillip's wife Christina "Blake" Thorpe, who wanted to get even with Phillip who left her for Beth, who return to town. Blake, who pretended she was pregnant, coerced Alan-Michael into divorcing Harley and marrying her or she would continue to interfere with Beth and Phillip. Not long after their marriage, Blake faked a miscarriage, but the truth about her fake pregnancy was found out. Alan-Michael left Blake, but throughout the early '90s, he and Blake would team up to feud with Alan. Alan-Michael soon fell in love with and married Eleni Andros. Eleni, however, had conceived a child before they married, thanking it was Alan-Michael's; when it was revealed to be Frank Cooper's instead, Eleni left Alan-Michael to marry Frank. Heartbroken yet again, Alan-Michael took over Spaulding Enterprises. He would date Josh's ex Tangie Hill in 1994, who also flirted with Alan, much to Josh's like. However, his heart would later be wooed by Lucy Cooper in 1995 whom he'd marry before leaving town in 1997. During this time, Alan-Micheal's ex, Dinah Marler returned to town, vowing revenge for leaving her to marry Harley Copper all those years ago. Knowing how much the Spauldings espically Alan Micheal had hatred for Roger Thorpe, Dinah saw an change at getting even by Marrying Roger, trying to make Alan-Micheal jelious, however he was trying to break up Lucy and Brent Lawerence. So, Dinah gave up, but continue to marry Roger in order to gain her Trust Fund. Lucy left the crazy Brent Lawerence and went back to Alan-Micheal in the summer of 1995. Alan-Micheal and Gilly Grant teamed up in late 1995/early 1996 to help Reva Shayne convience with Josh and Annie Duttion over a joined custody agreement of Marah and Shayne.

Alan-Michael would return in 2005, divorced from Lucy. He and Marina Cooper (ironically, the child Eleni had conceived with Frank) would have a brief courtship between 2005-2006, and he later had a courtship with Ava Peralta before leaving Springfield again.
