Brief Character History
Connor Davis was a high school rival of Ridge's and former flame of Brooke's who got mixed up with Ridge shortly after Bridget's birth, being used by Brooke in an attempt to make Ridge jealous. The two began dating, and were soon involved on a fairly serious level, even though Brooke was more interested in Ridge than she was in Connor. He wasn't quite as blind as she thought he'd be though, as he soon saw through her reasons for dating him, but he was still interested in her and was more than prepared to give their relationship a chance. Connor attended many Forrester related functions with Brooke, and soon began to realize that the Forresters weren't quite as innocent as they pretended where she was concerned, and Stephanie in particular did not have Brooke's best interests at heart. Connor also had some questions about her masseur when he saw the man one day, not able to remember where he met her from.
Things finally came to a head between Connor and Ridge, who had been fighting over Brooke for quite some time. Although he enjoyed his time with Brooke, Connor couldn't quite convince himself that he was first and foremost in her heart. As he continued to act as both her boyfriend and her lawyer, he managed to get his hands on a copy of the much sought after BeLieF patent, the exact thing that the Forresters had been after for quite some time. He continued to try to convince Brooke that Ridge was not in it for her best interests and was only after BeLieF, but Brooke was so set on a life with Ridge that Connor began to lose confidence in their relationship and began seeing Karen Spencer.
Connor was also acting as her lawyer, and he was the one who discovered that the papers Brooke had signed (thanks to Ridge's encouragement) giving the Forresters control over BeLieF were in her possession, meaning she could do anything with them that she wanted to. She ripped them to shreds in front of the Forresters, but was prepared to sign new papers when her masseuse Steve (who Connor had recognized, but hadn't placed) showed up, and Connor finally remembered that Steve was an attorney, and cautioned Brooke not to sign the new papers. That meeting ended in a shambles, but at the next meeting, Connor negotiated the deal of a lifetime for Brooke ... she would sign over the rights to BeLieF in exchange for the office of her choice, an expense account, a personal secretary, a full-time driver, and 51 percent of the stock in Forrester Creations. Connor and Brooke celebrated the Forrester's reluctant acceptance of this deal with a romantic dinner, and made love in the limo that night.
Connor asked Brooke to marry him, but she told him that she just wasn't ready. Although she later did tell him that marriage was a strong possibility, her refusal that night had changed something in their relationship. He began seeing Karen Spencer more frequently, and after learning that Ridge was Bridget's father, finally accepted that no matter how much he loved Brooke, she would never forget about Ridge. He kept going back and forth between her and Karen Spencer, but as time went on, he got more and more impatient with Brooke playing him against Ridge, and finally turned his back on her, and began a relationship with Karen which was nearly derailed when Connor and Anthony ended up in see-through swimsuits while on a hot-tub date with Karen and Macy.
Although Karen was very committed to Connor, she wasn't ready to sleep with him yet. She pushed him off by asking him to take an AIDS test and when he told her he was negative, she admitted that she just wasn't prepared to be fully intimate. To 'loosen her up', Connor served her up with a very potent drink, and that night, took her home and made love to her. The next day, he admitted to Macy that he hadn't used a condom, and when he was out at a dinner with Karen (after spending a remarkable amount of time running to the bathroom), Connor was shocked to see Karen developing strange food cravings. He began to suspect she was pregnant, and it was only a matter of time before she confessed to him that yes, she was.
Although panicked, Connor decided to 'do the right thing' and propose to Karen. He privately admitted to his friend Anthony that while he cared for Karen, the only reason he had proposed was because she was pregnant. Connor and Karen went through with the ceremony, but before the papers could be signed, Karen admitted that she lied to him about being pregnant to pay him back for getting her drunk so he could take advantage of her and not using any protection. Connor backed away from their romance, telling her that he needed time to think, and began dating Darla in the meantime. Karen left town not long after, but the two were able to part as friends when she returned to Texas.
Although he was dating Darla, Connor stayed out of serious relationships for awhile, bolstering up his friendship with Anthony. He was also a willing ear for James, who did not believe that Taylor had died when they said she had, and even assisted James (reluctantly) in investigating his belief that Taylor was being forcibly held by Prince Omar. He hired on as Sheila Forrester's lawyer despite their earlier animosity (Sheila had frequently threatened him during his romance with Brooke), and surprisingly, the two became lovers -- Sheila was desperate to get pregnant to keep her husband, who she began to realize wanted out of their relationship. When Eric denied being the father of the baby Sheila claimed to be pregnant with due to a vasectomy, Connor advised her that Eric's refusal to disclose that the two could never have children could go in her favor in a divorce decree.
Fresh from working for Sheila, Connor decided to work more closely with his friends Anthony and Macy, and when twenty-year-old Dylan Shaw was charged with statuatory rape after making love to his girlfriend, seventeen-year-old Jessica Forrester, Connor represented Dylan at Sally's request. Dylan was luckily found not guilty. Connor was drawn back into Brooke's world again when she wanted to return her 51% of Forrester to Eric, even though Brooke later changed her mind. When model Ivana Vanderveld, who was dating Connor's friend Anthony, was found murdered after threatening Macy, Connor agreed to defend Thorne on the charges. He also advised the Forresters to publicly admit that Taylor was back from the dead. Despite their history together, Connor agreed to defend Brooke when the legitimacy of her marriage to Ridge was questioned because Ridge's first wife wasn't dead.
Connor began a relationship with Maggie Forrester, but it was over almost before it started when he realized that Maggie was more interested in her daughter Jessica's boyfriend Dylan than she was in him. Connor nevertheless fell in love with Maggie, but it was not to be. Maggie eventually married James Warwick, and after trying to help Grant Chambers 'save' Brooke from the Forresters (and failing), Connor acted as their lawyer when Sheila Carter decided she wanted to take their adopted daughter Margaret from them -- Sheila was Margaret's birth mother, and had conceived on a one-night stand with James. Despite their best efforts, James and Maggie lost Margaret, and Sheila regained her daughter, renaming her Mary.
Connor has faded into the background since then, but still turns up from time to time when a lawyer is needed.
