Lucas Roberts was raised by Kate Roberts. She was a rising
executive, so she sent him to boarding and military schools for most
of his life. He was a spoiled brat but very popular with the
ladies. They settled in Salem. Lucas soon found out that
he had a brother and sister, Billie and Austin. He was very
jealous of the two, especially Austin. Their father was the
evil Curtis Reed, but Lucas' father was Bill Horton. Bill and
Lucas came to an understanding before Bill left town. Bill's
children, Jennifer and Mike, are Lucas' half-siblings, but they are
not close to Lucas. Lucas is not the type to want to share.
Lucas fell in love with Carrie Brady, so he conspired to keep her
and Austin apart, helping Sami Brady in her schemes. Sami
drugged Lucas and slept with him, and then tried to pass off her
child as Austin's, so that ended their alliance. They had a
long, bitter custody battle for their son, Will. Lucas' mother
Kate despises Sami, for many reasons. Thanks to Kate, Sami
almost went to the electric chair for murder, but Lucas saved her.
Kate paid Nicole to get Lucas to marry her; their union did not last
long. Lucas had a problem with alcohol, and he was in a coma
for awhile after a car wreck. Lucas is a magazine executive
like his mother.
Sami and Lucas worked things out for the sake of their child, and
now they live across the hall from each other. They are
starting to fall in love, despite their problems of selfishness and
deceit. They both have grown up a lot.
