Eleanor Jane "Ellie" Mills (née Hunter) is a fictional character from the long-running Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks, played by Sarah Baxendale. She first appeared in 2002 and made her final appearance in 2005.
The eldest Hunter child was a runaway living in Ibiza for two years without contacting her family before returning, not out of love, but rather because she had run out of money. She was a man-eater and was responsible for the spread of an STD that Jamie Nash got the blame for. She often caused trouble for her family and often went against her mother's wishes. When she arrived on town, she discovered that her little brother Lee was always getting in trouble with the police and school, and failed exams, and Lisa self-harmed after she was bullied by Steph Dean, while Dan was depressed because she ran away from home.
She married Toby Mills, who her family approved of, but this was a huge mistake, as he was in fact a serial killer. Ellie ran off again, and Toby and Dan went off to look for her, but the night ended in disaster when Toby died, Ellie was left unconscious after falling from a roof and Dan was in the frame for his murder. The Hunter clan desperately awaited for Ellie to wake up to clear Dan's name, but on waking, she had lost her memory and accused Dan of murdering her husband.
Her family turned against her, including her father, and Ellie also incurred the wrath of Les's close friend and business partner Johnno Dean and his then-wife Frankie Osborne, whose daughters Steph and Debbie had their lives ruined by Toby, Steph nearly lost her life after being attacked by Toby and was left with epilepsy as a result of the attack; and Debbie, who had been in a relationship with Dan, having lost her boyfriend due to his wrongful imprisonment. Ellie's actions led to an explosive confrontation with Johnno Dean, and Les had to step in and prevent his business partner from physically attacking Ellie.
The atmosphere in the Hunter household was too much and Sally disowned her daughter. Ellie's memory eventually returned and Dan was cleared, but her mother was unable to forgive her.
