Sally Keating/Fletcher

Sally was just three years old when she lost her parents in a boating accident. She went to live with her grandmother and her love helped Sally adjust to the loss of her parents and feel secure again.
Then, when she was five-and-a-half, Mrs Keating was diagnosed as having Alzheimer's disease. As her condition worsened, the household routine fell apart and Sally often missed school to stay home and look after her grandmother.
One of her teachers brought the situation to the attention of the Welfare Dept, who put her in a home when they realised she wasn't being properly cared for.
When she arrived at the home, she put up walls and retreated into a fantasy world, creating an imaginary friend called Milko.
Sally was fostered by Tom and Pippa Fletcher, who eventually decided to adopt her as their own child.
Sally was devastated when Tom died, and was not too keen on Pippa seeing Michael. She eventually came round, when Michael reassured her he wasn't going to replace Tom.
When Sally reached her teens, she began to rebel. She was caught by Alf, drunk at a beach party.

Sally was kidnapped by a person who had a crush on her when they were at school.

Sally has been with a few boys, and had tough times with them. Scott almost raped her, and Tim got too obsessed with her that he got jealous when he saw her with any other boy, even though it's only a friend.

Sally was an uni student and is a manageress for Bonza Burgers. When Adam returned to the Bay, she was sacked later on for refusing to meet Adam's demands. She helped Vinnie with is war against Adam, in the end, they won and she got her job back, on her conditions.

Sally left for Ireland for a brief holiday. When she came back, she brought Kieran with her. After a short time, they became engaged. Their wedding was arranged for the middle of 2000. She was delighted when old faces returned to the Bay to see her wedding.

The wedding never finished when Gypsy revealed Kieran's actions towards her. Sally demanded the truth from him. She is single now.
