Charles Hayton was the father of Becca and Nancy Hayton. Charles and his wife Margaret were wealthy and seen as snobbish by Jake and his family. When Charles first met Jake, he was in garden clothes, and Jake, assuming he was the gardener, proceeded to tell him all about how humourless and stuck up Charles was. Frankie, Craig, and Steph dropped in for an unplanned visit, and a drunk Frankie told the Haytons all about Jake's affair and his giving a Sexually Transmitted Infection to Becca. The families also clashed over wedding preparations and cost. In spite of this turmoil, Charles and Margaret attended their daughter's wedding and wished her well.
Charles had a heart attack in early 2006 and Becca went to visit him during his recuperation. During another visit a few months later, she was in the midst of an affair with Justin Burton and wasn't actually there when her father suddenly died.
