In 1996, Starr Manning came into the world as Llanview's newest baby. A product of controversial couple, Todd and Blair Manning, Starr grew up fast with more street smarts than some adults! Like most kids of divorce, Starr wanted more than anything for her parents to reconcile and she pulled many stunts in order to make it happen! She tried everything from locking her parents in a room to running away to faking a kidnapping!
Although her parents had a habit of getting back together - only to break up again - years later Starr would go through a new kind of devastation with the 'death' of her father. Reeling with loss, Starr took comfort in a stranger, Walker Lawrence. Soon after, Walker confided in Starr that he was in fact Todd, who had a total face job!
With Todd's identity revealed, Starr and Blair's relationship began to falter. Blair was furious that Todd had allowed them to believe he was dead, in turn she and didn't allow Starr to see her father, setting Starr down a rebellious path. She found herself in trouble on Internet chatrooms, ran away to New York City to see a boy she met online and ended up kidnapped! In the end, her parents rescued her and brought Starr back to Llanview where they all became a family.
2006 had to be the worst year yet for the high school freshman. After Spencer Truman framed her father for murder, Starr had to face the day of his execution! However, just when word came that Todd had been put to death, new evidence surfaced that proved him to be innocent! Ironically, her mother begged Spencer to bring Todd back to life and her father lived!
Being the daughter of Todd Manning made Starr's school life difficult. She was constantly reminded of her parents' past mistakes and of her father's biggest sin - rape. Starr soon starting dating a boy named Cole. It wasn't until Cole erupted in a rage, from the effects of steroids, that Starr found out he was the son of the woman his father raped in college - Marty Saybrooke!
The end of the year brought more heartache after Spencer Truman tragically pulled Blair off a roof and as a result lost her unborn child, followed by her parents break-up and the death of Cole's mother, Marty. When Todd forced Starr and Cole, who were now totally in love, to break-up, they ran away to Virgina but were ultimately brought back home. Wanting to spend the first and last night together, they were in bed when Todd walked in on them!
Although Cole and Starr denied having sex, a couple of months later, they had no choice but to admit it, as Starr became pregnant. Wanting to do what was right for her and her baby, Starr decided to allow Marcie McBain to adopt her baby, which led to her break-up and months full of heartache with Cole.
Now, with the baby on its way, Starr faced many more heartaches to come... After being told her baby had died, it was months later when she found out that Hope was really Chloe - and was alive. Though Starr kept her word, and allowed Marcie to adopt Hope, Marcie gave the baby back for Starr and Cole to raise!
Life was looking good for Starr, and though she almost married Cole, before he was sent to prison on drug charges, she called off the wedding when news came that Cole would be doing community service instead.
Now, with Cole leaving Starr and Hope to go undercover, Starr prays that Cole stays safe and will come home to her and their daughter soon.

As Dorian tries to leave the diner, to see what's holding up the elections committee, Markko stops her, warning that they won't tell Dorian anyway. Suddenly, Amelia gets a call and explains that it came down to one vote - and Viki is the new mayor! Cole smirks at Markko, who apparently was the deciding vote! Though Starr is excited for Viki, she backtracks and sympathizes for Dorian. Amelia explains the committee recounted the votes three times then says, "It's over." Dorian rants about making the deciding person who voted for Viki pay - and glares at Cole and Markko, who Starr claims both voted for Dorian. Though Markko says that whoever had the deciding vote had a right to make their choice, Dorian stomps away, as Cole warns Markko to come clean with Langston - now!
Over at Dorian's, everyone helps Hope celebrate her first birthday, as Dorian anticipates something else to celebrate - her victory over Viki! Over talk of the election, Markko claims to Langston that he voted for Dorian but appears as though he's lying, as she hugs him with excitement! After Todd asks Amelia and Dorian which one of them is the groom, he takes Hope away to change her, while Marty confronts Blair for keeping Todd from his child! When Todd rejoins them, Marty says, "There's something I need to tell you. It's about your child." Marty relieves Blair by bringing up Cole and Starr's relationship, and warns him not to think about coming between them, then walks off. While Dorian and Amelia watch the polls on TV, Starr and Cole think back to how they thought they lost Hope. Cole promises they'll all be together always. Later, while opening Hope's gifts, Dorian snickers to Amelia as Starr opens Viki's promise book to Hope, claiming that Viki can't even keep her promises to the people of Llanview - like she plans to! Dorian vows to win the election, as Jack takes bets on who's going to win. Markko places one, in front of Langston, on Dorian, as Marty says she'd put a bundle on Viki! Markko pulls Cole away, admits he lied to Langston and says he voted for Viki! Though Cole assures him that there's no way Langston could find out the truth, an announcement comes over the television saying, "Every vote counts."
Just as Starr is ready to take Hope to bed, Marcie appears and spends some time with the baby, Starr and Cole, while Blair walks Todd out - since everyone is forced to wait until morning for the election results.
