Born prematurely in The Queen Vic on Christmas Day, Liam’s life was destined to be anything but ordinary. With parents like Bianca Jackson and Ricky Butcher, drama was practically in his DNA.

Growing up in Walford, Liam had his fair share of ups and downs. His early years were marked by the tumultuous relationship between his parents, which saw him shuttling between Manchester and Walford more times than we can count. But despite the chaos, Liam always managed to find his footing, thanks to the love and support of his extended family, including his great-grandmother Pat Evans.

As a teenager, Liam’s life took a darker turn when he got involved with a local gang. It was a rough patch that saw him getting into all sorts of trouble, from petty theft to more serious scrapes. But with the help of his family, especially his dad Ricky, Liam managed to turn things around. His journey from troubled teen to responsible young adult was a testament to his resilience and the power of family.

Liam’s love life was just as eventful as his childhood. He had a notable relationship with Cindy Williams, which was as fiery as it was passionate. Their on-again, off-again romance kept everyone in Walford guessing. And who could forget the time he tried to impress her by pretending to be a big-shot businessman? Classic Liam, always aiming high, even if his plans didn’t always pan out.

In 2021, Liam made a brief return to the Square, bringing with him a fresh wave of drama as he tried to keep sister Tiffany and husband Keegan apart. He also had a penchant for stealing cars! Now living in Germany, Liam’s adventures continue, but his heart will always belong to Albert Square.
