This was the start of a highly turbulent period in Amy's life with Amy and Michaela descending into shoplifting, underage drinking and promiscuity. After one session of underage drinking, Amy met a boy called Billy. They then had unprotected sex in the bushes in a park, before returning home drunk. Amy fell pregnant from this sexual encounter. Michaela contacted Billy and took Amy and Sasha with her to meet him. There, Amy was reluctant to tell him of her pregancy especially when Billy's memory of their encounter was so hazy Michaela had to remind him of Amy's name. Michaela told Billy about Amy's pregnancy but Billy hurriedly rejected any involvement with the child. He told Amy and Michaela that he wasn't worried anybody would find out he was the father as everyone knew "they're slags". Amy was left to to face her pregnancy alone. This was Billy's last appearance on the soap. Amy struggled to tell her family her news, a situation exacerbated by her mother's affair with Rhys Ashworth, and toyed with the idea of having an abortion, before deciding to keep her unborn child. Rebelling in attempt to forget her situation, she briefly got back with Ste Hay, with whom she often took part in joyriding and truancy. As a consequence of his joyriding, he crashed a car and Amy was left unconscious in hospital.

Baby Leah

Amy started feeling stomach pains at school. When Josh saw her in pain, she told him it was PMS. Amy's water broke on another occasion at Josh's house, leaving Josh to assume she had wet herself. Amy's dad Mike and sister Sarah delivered Amy's daughter on the kitchen floor. Initially, the family decided that Kathy would claim to be the mother; and Amy told her classmates she had a new baby sister, despite both Michaela, Sarah and her dad trying to convince her to claim Leah as her own. However, in time Amy grew closer to Leah, causing controversy as Kathy had grown deluded and come to see Leah as her own daughter. The birth of Leah also caused a great deal of controversy with Amy's father Mike, who found it hard to accept. Mike forced Amy to take the contraceptive pill and to split up with Josh, who he assumed was the father of Amy's child. Mike later found a condom on the floor, leading him to believe that Amy and Josh had been sleeping together; leading him to confront Josh throwing him on a pile of bricks saying he was "going to kill" him for "what he's done", before Josh hit Mike over the head with a brick in self defence.

Once Mike had regained consciousness & his memory, Mike blackmailed Josh into leaving Amy by threating to tell the police of his assault. Suzanne then blackmailed Mike, threatening to break the news that baby Leah was in fact, Amy's baby. As a result of constant argument with their respective sets of parents, Josh and Amy briefly ran away and lived, unsuccessfully, as squatters. When Amy called her sister Sarah for financial support, she told the police about her sisters whereabouts and while Amy was taken home, Josh was taken into custody for his assault on Mike. Amy was distraught and couldn't quite believe that Josh had any hand in hurting her father. However, over time, the two rebuilt their relationship, still against the wishes of their parents. On Amy's 16th birthday, encouraged by her improving relationship with Josh and the respite in parental pressure upon them, Amy decided to publicly tell Josh that the baby was indeed hers; leading Josh end their relationship. With renewed confidence, despite the break up, Amy decided it was time she took control of her life and become a real mother to her baby daughter. In her still-deluded state, Amy's mother Kathy began hiding things that Leah needed and purposefully burning clothes Amy was ironing, in order to try and make Amy look incapable of looking after the baby. At Kathy's lowest point, she kidnapped Leah, in the delusional belief that Leah was, in fact, her own baby. Kathy believes that Amy & Sarah are "selfish" and she is depressed and confused about how quickly they have grown up and no longer need her support - this is possibly why she is clinging to the idea of having a new baby daughter; a fresh start. After finding Kathy & Leah in a park and successfully retrieving the baby from her mother's arms saying to Mike and Sarah to "Get her away from me and Leah!". Amy stated "I don't want to talk to mum leave her alone!" She said this when Mike and Sarah said that next time they go and see Kathy, Amy should go with them she also said "Yeah thats me always putting my daughter first. I am so selfish!" when Sarah called Amy selfish for not wanting to see her mother.

Due to the stress she was put through in the past year, Amy failed all of her GCSEs therefore having to retake her exams during her first year of sixth form.

She managed to resolve the arguments between her best friends Sasha and Michaela over Fletch.

Return of an old flame

On 26th September 2007, Ste returned. He followed Amy home and shocked her by making an appearance whilst she was looking after Leah, but she threw him out and told him she didn't want to see him. The next day, Amy was meant to be seeing Josh, but he couldn't leave his mum because of his sister (Hannah) being in hospital. He stood her up so Amy went in search of Ste.

When she found him, she shouted at him, asking him how could he leave her for dead in a car crash, whilst she was pregnant, but later warmed to him when he told her he had changed. Josh, meanwhile, had left a note on her doorstep telling Amy how sorry he was, and hoped he could forgive her. Amy never saw this note, as she accidentaly kicked away the rock holding it down as the was getting Leah's pram through the door, and the note blew away.

Amy started visiting Ste in his squat and bringing him food, as she obviously felt bad for him and his situation. He asked her about Josh, and she informed him that they were finished, which he took to mean she had finished with Josh to be with him. He tried to kiss her but she recoils, and explains that after everything that happened she was not interested in him like that any more. He explains that he has changed - and she tells him that she has too. She has grown up "Because I had to". This is momentous, as Amy had for a long time been acting like a spoiled brat, but has recently emerged as a responsible and thoughtful young woman.

Relationship with Ste

Amy and Michaela organised a party, as Amy's parents were away. This resulted in Michaela advertising the party details on the internet. Later, when the party was underway many unwanted guests turned up including Wayne. He got drunk and started pinching stuff from the house. He went into Amy's room and disturbed Leah whilst pinching CDs. Amy then burst in, along with Ste, and caught Wayne in the act. He then picked Leah up and threatened to drop Leah. Ste stepped in and took Leah off Wayne, gave her to Amy and punched Wayne in the face. Ste and Amy then threw everyone out of the house and Amy let Ste stay the night as he was her and Leah's 'hero'. Amy has now begun a relationship with Ste.

After the party, Amy let Ste stay at her house, as both her parents and Sarah were away. Amy was overjoyed that Ste took to Leah as well. All was going well until Mike and Kathy came back. Amy kept them away from the house for as long as possible until they wanted to go home. Amy was glad that Ste was nowhere to be seen but was also worried as he had just disappeared. Ste then returned much to the annoyance of Mike, who threw Ste out the house. Mike was about to push Ste down the stairs after he left Amy for dead in the car crash, until Ste falesly blurted out he was Leah's father. Amy went along with it for Ste's sake . Few days later, Mike got into contact with Terry, Ste's stepfather. Mike was pressuring Sarah about Amy, Ste and baby Leah's whereabouts. When they turn up at their house unexpectedly, Terry went in the room lashing out and brutally beating Ste, Amy was helpless to help Ste. She and Sarah looked horrified with baby Leah crying. Mike eventually pulled Terry off Ste and threw him out. Amy also did the same to Sarah and Mike. Being furious by this, Amy ruled out to Ste that it will only be her, Ste and Leah from now on, even though she would have to cut contact with her family.
