Grayson Sinclair is a fictional character from the British ITV soap opera, Emmerdale, played by Christopher Villiers.
Grayson is part of the wealthy Sinclair family. He was married to Perdita Hyde-Sinclair and is the eldest son of Rosemary King and brother of Alasdair Sinclair. He first appeared at a family dinner party with Perdy, Alasdair and Sadie. He appeared again at Alasdair and Sadie's wedding and was present when Sadie and Rosemary agreed Sadie would annul her marriage to Alasdair in return for the Sinclair business that had the most sentimental value to Rosemary.
Grayson and Perdita got together, following the death of Perdy's brother, Harry. Harry died in action during the Bosnian war. He and Grayson were best friends. Rosemary told Tom King that Grayson and Perdy met at Harry's funeral and fell in love. However, Perdy told local vet, Hari Prasad, that Grayson was unfaithful. He had a gambling habit, which saw him sell some of Rosemary's paintings to and made friends with Diane Sugden and she accompanied him to casinos until Perdy asked her to stop. Grayson was shocked to learn that Perdy has had five miscarriages. During a heart to heart, she confessed and seemed to resent his philandering.
Grayson is an experienced solicitor advocate. He advised Bob Hope and the villagers about how they could sue King and Sons for the show home collapse but changed sides, defending the Kings when they were charged with corporate manslaughter.
Grayson is very close to his mother, Rosemary, due to the death of his father when he and his brother were young. Rosemary, Grayson and Perdy lived at Oakwell Hall until Gray and Perdy bought Mill Cottage.
When Grayson was away, Perdy slept with Matthew King. Worried she was pregnant, she told Grayson and admitted that Matthew could be the father. Fortunately, Perdy wasn't pregnant but the damage was done. Matthew and Grayson despised each other as Matthew felt Grayson was an idiot for not treating Perdy right while Grayson resented Matthew for trying to steal his wife. Matthew called Grayson, "Larry", a reference to comedian Larry Grayson, which Grayson hated. Matthew did this until he and Grayson had a fight over it. Matthew still did it but not to his face.
