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 will face many more heartaches to come...

Still staring in the nursery, at Jessica's baby, Starr smiles at how beautiful she is then tells Viki about what Dr. Joplin said about her baby's death. Over talk of Todd, Starr wishes that she could bury her father - instead of her baby - to which Viki begs her not to wish her father dead. Starr realizes what Viki is trying to say, that deep down she does love her father, but Starr can't imagine how she's going to go on knowing what he was going to do. When the baby is brought out to Viki, Viki allows Starr to hold Chloe, who says, "My name is Starr. I'm your cousin… nice to meet you." Suddenly, Todd appears in cuffs and is taken away to the police station, leaving Starr even more upset!
In Dr. Joplin's office, she admits to Blair, Starr, Dorian, Marcie and Michael that a better doctor could have saved Hope then says, "You all deserve to know exactly how this tragedy came to happen." The doctor explains that Hope died of Rh disease, a treatable disease where a small amount of the baby's Rh+ blood enters into the mother's - and doesn't mix with the mother's Rh- blood. Demanding to know why Dr. Joplin didn't detect this, the doctor admits, "I don't know what I was thinking. I am completely at fault." As Dorian continues to rant and rave about the doctor's negligence, Dr. Joplin thinks back to Todd's initial orders! Through tears, the doctor announces that the baby will be released to them, for a proper funeral, then begs them for forgiveness.
Outside the doctor's office, though Dorian and Blair want to take Starr out to breakfast, to get her mind off of what just happened, Starr insists on being alone and Blair reluctantly allows it.
While Natalie and Jared are getting the car, Viki is surprised to see Starr and pulls her close. After Starr gives her some flowers for Jessica, she looks into the nursery then asks, "Which one is your granddaughter?" Starr smiles as Viki points out Chloe then says, "She's perfect."
