[edit] History
In late 2006, Boyd Hoyland (Kyal Marsh) left Erinsborough to look for his missing father, Max (Stephen Lovatt), in Tasmania. While he was away he met Glenn and had a one-night stand with her.
In November 2006, Boyd's wife Janae (Eliza Taylor-Cotter) discovered that Boyd kissed Glenn, but was unaware that they slept together. Janae then discovered that Glenn was, in fact, an old friend of her neighbour and friend Elle Robinson (Pippa Black), and that she was coming to stay with Elle. Janae begged Elle to ask Glenn not to come. Elle reluctantly agreed.
After breaking up with Janae's brother Dylan (Damien Bodie), a vengeful Elle invited Glenn to stay with her, deliberately trying to make trouble for the Timmins family. Coincidentally, Glenn left her car at the garage where Janae works as a mechanic on her way to see Elle. Upon realizing that Janae was Boyd's wife, Glenn assured her that she would not cause trouble in the Hoylands' marriage.
However, when Glenn learned that Boyd still had feelings for her, she pushed him to make a choice between her and his wife. When Glenn picked her car up from the garage, her brakes had been tampered with and she crashed the car, ending up in hospital, severely injured. Everyone in Erinsborough, including Boyd, believed that Janae was behind the incident. However, it was revealed that the perpetrator was, in fact, Lolly Allen (Adelaide Kane), who sabotaged the brakes mistakenly believing that the car belonged to her abusive stepmother, Sandy (Catherine Hill).
After growing weary of Boyd's behaviour around Glenn, Janae offered him a fortnight to decide who he was to be with in the end. To Janae's surprise and horror, he chose Glenn. Steph, Boyd's stepmother, tried to talk some sense into him but he chose to ignore her advice. During a pregnancy scare, she met Janae at Erinsborough Hospital; ironically, she thought she was pregnant with Boyd's child as well. They were both to take the test the same day as each other. However, we found out that Glenn was not pregnant , but Janae might be. Glenn and Boyd were to go back to Tasmania to meet Glenn's parents, but after seeing Boyd comforting Janae when her brother Stingray died she realised that he still loved her and decided to leave him. Glenn broke down in tears and said that she hoped Janae did not take him back too quickly as he had a lot of growing up to do first. She later left for Tasmania without Boyd. Janae did not take Boyd back even though he begged her for a second chance.
