He later escapes from the cellar and holds Cameron at gunpoint while Chas and Debbie attempt to escape. Marlon then ran to the cellar, which was by now flooding to the top, but Cameron followed. After nearly drowning the three, Cameron was electrocuted. Marlon was put in the paper as a 2nd hero after what happened with Eli and the bookie years back. He later tells Laurel the truth; she is angry but later forgave him.
In March , Marlon celebrated his 40th birthday. Unbeknownst to him, though, Donna returned to the village just before with a little girl, April , in tow. April was nearly run over by Adam Barton while on his quad bike, but she was saved by Marlon. He was then stunned to see Donna back in Emmerdale and when he confronted her, she told him that April is his daughter.
Marlon subsequently got drunk and told Donna that he wanted nothing to do with April. Marlon eventually warmed to his daughter, and as Donna and April were leaving the village in Bob's car, Marlon stood in front of them, causing Donna to hit her head on the windscreen as Bob makes an emergency stop.
Marlon didn't realise that Donna returned to the village because she was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. When April fell ill, she revealed to Marlon that Donna takes pills that make her feel better. This concerned Marlon, so while he was looking after his son Leo, in Rhona's house, he searched Donna's bedroom. He found a memory box for April, with birthday cards for every year of April's life, photos of Donna and a teddy bear inside.
Marlon then realised that Donna is dying, and confronted her. She revealed that she has lung cancer and only has months left to live, leaving Marlon devastated. When Donna left, he revealed to Laurel of Donna's condition. Laurel felt uncomfortable, however, after Marlon decided to bring their wedding day forward in order for Donna to be able to attend before she dies. She confided in Rhona, who urged Laurel to tell Marlon how she felt about the situation. Donna collapsed in Paddy and Rhona's kitchen which confused April, but she was found by Paddy, who helped her recover.
The next day. Marlon accompanied Donna to a hospital appointment, where they were told that her cancer had spread; now into stage-four and that her life expectancy is a matter of weeks. This devastated Donna, who broke down in Marlon's arms.
During a heart-to-heart with Donna, Marlon kissed her, but they both instantly regretted it. Donna began to worry that Marlon and Laurel will split up over the kiss, but they swore one another to secrecy. Donna then asked Marlon to help her make a video message for April. Marlon eventually told Paddy about the kiss, and Paddy warns Donna to give Marlon space. During a day out with Marlon and April, Donna collapsed again in the park, and is aided by Paddy as Marlon rushes April home before she is able to see Donna ill.
While out on a job with Ross Barton for the last several weeks, Donna had been enlisting Ross' help in burglaries into order to secure April's future , Donna handcuffed herself to a criminal named Gary North and plunged off the roof to her death, taking Gary with her. Donna's colleague PC Stone broke the news to Bob and his partner Brenda Walker that Donna fell off the roof while chasing a suspect and is now dead. A devastated Bob broke the news of Donna's death to Marlon in the Woolpack.
Bob was further shocked when Marlon informed him that Donna was dying of cancer and only had weeks to live, something that Bob had never known. Bob started taking his grief out on Marlon saying he should have told him about Donna's cancer so they could prepare April and blamed him for ruining her life.
Marlon was then faced with the impossible task of telling April that her mummy had died. Marlon and Laurel explained to April that Donna had gone to be a superhero in the sky. The aftermath of Donna's death also saw Marlon become at odds with Ross. Ross taunted Marlon with the news that Donna was bent and helping him carry out robberies. He added that he was there when she died and that they were more than just partners in crime and were planning to run away together with April. Marlon threatened to call the police, but didn't after much convincing, especially after his cousin Chas told him that her son Aaron Livesy got caught up in it.
When April went missing, Marlon blamed Ross for her disappearance. Ross had eventually found April sitting in a car at the garage. Ross had threatened to tell Laurel about Marlon kissing Donna and they also got into a fight at Donna's funeral when Ross tried to attend. During the funeral, Marlon was unable to control his emotions while reading Donna's eulogy. As a result of Marlon's level of grief, Laurel was unsure she can marry Marlon as she didn't think his heart was in it.
Two weeks later, Marlon watches Donna's video message for April. On the day of their wedding, Laurel admits that she kissed Ashley, but Marlon understood and confessed that he did the same with Donna. They forgave each other and got married. Laurel was disappointed after looking forward to her wedding night with Marlon and found him asleep with April on the sofa. The following day, Marlon warned Ashley off kissing Laurel again but Ashley turned the tables on him and advised Marlon to stop taking Laurel for granted if he wanted their marriage to work.
Marlon then surprised Laurel with a holiday to Cornwall. Towards the end of the year, Laurel slowly descended into alcoholism after she couldn't cope with everything that had happened to her, Marlon and Donna over the recent months.
She manages to keep her addiction secret for a number of months but Marlon eventually discovered the extent of his wife's addiction. Laurel lied and said that she has only began drinking because she couldn't cope with looking after the children all of the time and said that she would stop drinking once she and Marlon take a short holiday away from the village.
When they returned, it became apparent that Laurel hadn't stopped drinking, and continued to down alcoholic drinks when Marlon was at work. At breakfast, she spikes her orange juice with vodka, which April drank. Laurel took April to hospital, where they were told that April will be fine, but Laurel manipulated her into not telling Marlon about the incident.
A number of weeks later, Marlon realised that Laurel had not stopped drinking after she choked on her vomit and had to be rushed to hospital. While Laurel was in hospital recovering, April revealed to Marlon about the orange juice incident, which infuriated him. When Laurel is discharged the following week, Marlon confronted her and he gave her some harsh home truths, leading to Laurel punching Marlon in the face.
He appeared to be fine, but the next day he collapsed and claimed that he couldn't see. He was taken to hospital and was told that Laurel has detached his retina in his eye when she punched him. Marlon's concerned cousin Cain ordered Laurel to leave Marlon and the children, but she refused and got drunk yet again. She left the house, unaware that she has left the front door open, leading to Marlon's beloved dog Daisy escaping.
When Marlon was discharged from hospital following an operation on his eye, he was furious to discover that Cain had told Laurel to leave and they went to find her. They discovered Laurel's car crashed into a tree and her pleading with Marlon not to come any closer.
Cain and Marlon were unnerved to find his car parked off-road near the Ford. As Marlon went to investigate, he was horrified to find Laurel attempting to bury Daisy, having clearly hit her while driving the car.
Marlon arrived home weeping and cradling Daisy in his arms; Daisy having been the last remaining memory of Tricia. Laurel tried to apologise and promised to buy Marlon a new dog. She also tactlessly said that Daisy's death was a good thing as it could've been the key to sorting herself out. Disgusted, he grabbed her and threw her out.
