Hannah then first came to the Bay to ask Zac for help in trying to get the twins away from the cult. Apart from that backstory, I don't believe we have heard much else about Hannah's past (including Sean).
It seems now that, apart from doing Leah's operation, Sean has just been brought in to facilitate the breakup between Hannah & Andy, & he won't be in the show long term.
SPOILER ALERT! I have posted previously how I am not a fan of Hannah/Andy so after we found out more about Sean & Hannah's history together last night (in Aust), personally I would have liked to have seen a renewed relationship develop between them, but alas it appears that won't be the case as we find out in the latest spoilers that Sean is in fact married (another married doctor Hannah??). There has been talk for a while now that there is a new nurse named Emma joining the cast. I have also read elsewhere now that this new nurse will in fact be Sean's wife! It wil be interesting to see if she will be a permanent character or just have a guest role like Sean. If she is permanent, how will she get on working at the hospital with Hannah? With the spoilers also saying that Andy finds out about Hannah's affair, I am sure they will show widespread sympathy for good old born again Andy (he won't be getting any from me!).
