I wasn't watching at the time when Steven was born but was watching when he found out he wasn't Ian's (is there a clip where I can rewatch that?). I'm curious .. did Ian always know that he wasn't his or did he find out later on screen? Did the audience know or did they find out with Steven? I was always under the impression that Steven, Ian and the audience all found out together but from some posts here recently I don't think so

No, Ian found out before Steven. Ian took Cindy back after she ran off with Simon and he brought up Steven as his own. I think Steven only found out after he heard Ian talking to someone else about it but I can't remember the exact details. I think as a result of that Steven wanted to go and meet his real dad and ended up moving to new Zealand.

Its a shame that Steven is not a biological Beale, especially as they killed off Lucy,

The Auudience knew from the start. We knew that Cindy had slept with simon whilst dating Ian and she told him the baby was his as soon as she found out she was pregnant, begging him to dump Sharon and be with her. When he refused, she married Ian.

Once the baby was born, Simon was drawn towards him and after a few months, asked Cindy to be with him, at which point they told Ian the truth. He got so upset he had a car crash and later did a paternity test which proved Steven was Simon's. After a few months, ian tried to kill Simon so he, Cindy and Steven moved away.

A year after that, Ian tracked Cindy down (wanting a divorce I think but not sure) and discovered that Simon had left her so Ian took her back and they continued to raise Steven as though he were Ian's and went on to have the twins.

Much later, after Cindy had died, Steven found out ian had slept with Janine and started playing up and when ian lost his temper over it he had a rant during which he said he souldn't have to deal with it as Steven wasn't his, he was just "Cindy's little brat". Steven over heard and thus learnt his true paternity at which point he went to New Zealand to get to know his real father and stayed there for several years.

Hope that helps.
