Grace Antonia Helen Hutchinson was the daughter of Tony and Mandy Hutchinson. She was also the half-sister of Beau Ramsey, Harry Thompson, Ella Richardson, Anthony Hutchinson, Ro Hutchinson, Darren Osborne Jr., and the adoptive half-sister of Dee Dee and Eva Hutchinson. Tony wanted to name Grace "Antonia", but Mandy was not keen, but agreed to making Grace's middle name "Antonia". Her second middle name, Helen, is after Mandy's late mother, Helen Cunningham.

Grace was born two months prematurely in October 2005. Mandy went into labour on 18th October, but doctors attempted to delay the labour, which they managed to do until 21st October. Mandy became worried that Grace might die due to her prematurity, and suffered post-natal depression, finding herself not wanting to get attached to Grace in case she did die. However, whilst in intensive care, Mandy made friends with a woman whom had also given birth to a premature baby, Daisy. Daisy later died and Mandy ended up growing close to Grace as a result.

Grace was christened in January 2006, with Becca Dean as her godmother and Max Cunningham, O.B. and Dom Reilly as godfathers. In May 2006, Mandy and Tony went out, leaving Grace in the care of babysitters Hannah Ashworth and Nancy Hayton. The girls put Grace in her cot, and when Mandy returned and went to check on Grace, she found Grace not breathing and called an ambulance. The ambulance team arrived, but were unable to revive Grace and pronounced her dead from suspected Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Mandy and Tony were left distraught, whilst Hannah and Nancy were traumatised as they believed that they were to blame for Grace's death. Her funeral took place eight days later, and Tony carried Grace's coffin at her funeral.

Grace's death led to Tony and Mandy falling out. Tony snapped and told Mandy that she was to blame for Grace's death. Mandy decided that she couldn't remain in the village and left Tony and the village in June 2006, leaving Tony heartbroken. In March 2007, Nancy struggled when tasked to look after nephew Charlie Dean alone, haunted by Grace's death. When Tony's girlfriend, Jacqui McQueen, suffered a miscarriage in August 2007, he opened up to her, telling her that losing the baby reminded him of losing Grace. In July 2008, Tony unnecessarily took surrogate son Max McQueen-Hutchinson to the hospital when he developed a cough, out of fear of losing him like Grace.

In October 2013, Tony was briefly reconciled with Grace when he ran way to Spain after being diagnosed with testicular cancer. He met with his old friend, the supposedly-late Kurt Benson, who introduced him to a now eight year old Grace. In February 2019, Mandy visited Grace's grave after learning that her unborn son had spina bifida. In October 2020, when Kurt 'returned from the dead', Tony told him about Grace.
