Yvonne and her husband Ian moved from their quiet country orchard to the bustling environs of Ferndale when Ian was diagnosed with the debilitating Motor Neurone Disease.He then had news that this was a misdiagnosis and he had Kennedy's Disease.

Yvonne's life took an unexpected turn for the better last year when the son she adopted out at birth, Hamish Flynn, made contact with her. Hamish had briefly worked at the hospital for Huia Samuels. It turned out that her long-lost "son" was really a con-man, out to scam her and Ian for their last penny.

She is portrayed by Alison Quigan.
