Ryan Stocks

Ryan Stocks is the son of Charity Dingle. He was adoptied by Irene Stocks, the midwife who delivered him.

Fourteen-year-old Charity Dingle discovered she was pregnant for the second time whilst being kept prisoner by police officer Mark Bails who was sexually abusing her and pimping her out. Charity couldn't stand the thought of having another child after being forced to give her first-born, Debbie. She tried to make the pregnancy go away by drinking copious amounts of alcohol, but when she felt her unborn child kick, Charity realised she had to stop drinking and escape Bails' clutches for the sake of her and her baby. After escaping Bails, Charity crashed with a friend, and soon afterward she went into premature labour. Charity delivered a baby boy but he didn't cry when he was born and Charity was told to prepare for the worst. Charity couldn't bear watching her son die in front of her so she fled the hospital, unaware the doctors managed to revive her son.
