Nick Holland, played by Dominic Taylor, first appears when Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) meets him in Italy while on the run after escaping from Walford with her children. They become lovers, and Cindy becomes pregnant with his child.
When Cindy's ex-husband Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) tracks her down and steals the children back from Cindy and returns to Walford, Nick at first tries to help Cindy and comes with her back to Walford to get custody of the children. But during the trial Cindy is arrested for attempted murder of Ian, and Nick realises what Cindy is really like. Nick returns to Italy after the trial ends. After Cindy died while giving birth in prison, Nick never came back for his daughter also named Cindy Williams, so she was sent to live with her grandparents in Cornwall.
