Dev's marriage to Sunita hit the rocks in 2005, when after announcing she was pregnant with twins, she found out he had other children by other shop girls at his shops. In January 2006 Sunita finally left Dev for good, with the twins, although she still lets him see them. In February, his teenage daughter from a previous relationship, Amber, came to stay with him at the shop.
In July 2006 Dev learned that Sunita was seeing another man and he fears this may alter his relationship with the twins.
Dev has had very little in the way of major storylines of late.
