Background
Donna and her husband Bruce adopt Arnold and raise him as their son. Despite Bruce not knowing that Arnold is gay, Donna claims to have read through his journals.

Series 3
At Arnold's small birthday party, Donna tries to make some sort of conversation with Hannah, who is unhelpful. She also helps Josh when he tries on her wedding ring and it gets stuck on his finger. When Arnold comes out to his parents, Donna is very accepting, although Bruce reacts violently and slaps Steve's croquembouche off the table, prompting Donna to reprimand her husband; "For fuck's sake, Bruce! Why'd you have to go and slap his bloody croquembouche?!" When Bruce storms off and suggests Arnold isn't present when he gets back, Donna gives Arnold some money to go and shower himself in "dick and glitter", encouraging him to be as gay as he likes.
