History of Blair Cramer:

Shortly after Blair Daimler (later took on her mother's last name of Cramer) arrived in Llanview she sets her sights on marrying Asa Buchanan. However, Blair met and fell in love with Max Holden, but despite her feelings towards him she married Asa instead. After faking a pregnancy and revealing to Asa she had slept with Max on their wedding day Asa quickly divorced her and left her with nothing.

After repeated attempts to get back with Max failed, Blair began a new relationship with Cord Roberts. It was also around this time that Blair first met her soon-to-be true love Todd Manning. During a fight with Cord, Blair slept with Todd. Her relationship with Cord soon ended after she realized he was still in love with his ex-wife Tina. Shortly afterwards, Blair found out that Todd was Victor Lord's son and would be worth $27.8 million dollars. Blair set a new plan into action - marry Todd Manning! Blair faked a pregnancy and her and Todd married for the 1st time.

Blair eventually became pregnant with Todd's child and she gave birth to Starr. Later on, Blair and Todd also had another son named Jack.

Todd was presumed dead, and Blair fell in love with Walker Laurence After marrying Walker she discovered that he was really Todd. She swore revenge on him, but was shortly after diagnosed with a brain tumor. Her brain tumor was successfully removed, but her relationship with Todd was still strained until Starr went missing on a trip to New York.

Margaret Cochran entered their lives and caused major havoc, including Todd's kidnapping on their wedding day. Margaret's obsession with Todd and her wanting to have his baby lead her to extreme measures and she almost killed Blair. In order to save Blair, Todd finally gave into Margaret and he slept with her in which she did become pregnant.

Blair and Todd tried to rebuild their lives after the whole Margaret period, but things got even more complicated after she returned to town pregnant with his child. Enter Spencer Truman! Spencer became obsessed with Blair and eventually seduced her. Later, Blair found out Spencer was the one who had framed Todd for Margaret's murder and she set out to prove Todd's innocence. Spencer's interference with their lives caused great havoc, and just as Blair and Todd were about to reconcile, Blair fell off a roof and miscarried their baby. Blair and Todd re-married to get custody of Todd's son Sam, and are currently still together.
