Amy later begins relationship with flight attendant Damien Smith (John Ridley) and elopes with him after discovering she is pregnant.
"[6] Stapleton also described Amy as "excitable" and called her "a bit of a firecracker", a personality trait she found fun to play.
"[5] Lance's insecurities about the relationship come out when he tries to compete with mechanic Drew Kirk (Dan Paris) to be the main subject of Amy's school photography assignment.
Stapleton said Amy finds it "hilarious" and decides that his unusual skin colour will make for more interesting photos, so she asks him to strip to his boxers and pose for her.
Bibby explained that "Amy thinks that Megan is not the type of girl that Lance should be dating, so she decides to keep an eye on him.
Bibby told All About Soap's Jason Herbison that Lance always thought that Amy wanted their first time to be special, so they waited.
[11] He also admitted that the storyline was an unexpected development and a surprise to him, saying "You don't hear much about sex in Neighbours, then all of a sudden a regular character gets pregnant.
"[11] In November 1999, Herbison, writing for Inside Soap, reported that Stapleton had filmed her final scenes as Amy and she had already flown to Sydney to audition for a new sitcom.
"[13] In the build up to Amy's exit, scenes feature her refusing Damien's marriage proposal because she is afraid to tell him about her pregnancy.
[14] On 14 April 2005, Kris Green from Digital Spy reported that Stapleton had agreed to reprise her role for the show's 20th anniversary episode.
[17] Calling Amy "a heritage character", series producer Jason Herbison admitted that he had wanted to bring her back for a while.
[17] Of her return, Stapleton said "As Amy Greenwood has always held a fond place in my heart, to reprise her 20 years later feels like a gift that rarely happens in one's career.
"[17] Amy returns to Erinsborough to help design a new uniform for Lassiters Hotel staff, having established a career in the fashion industry during her time away.
[18] Stapleton later told Sam Warner and Daniel Kilkelly of Digital Spy that her guest stint was only supposed to be for six weeks, but it was later extended to eleven.
[19] She admitted that she was not expecting to return as a regular while filming her guest appearance, saying "I never in a million years – or 20 to be exact – thought I'd be back on Neighbours at all.
"[19] The Neighbours finale left Amy's character with an unresolved story, as she revealed that she had found an unnamed donor to proceed with her desired pregnancy.
"[21] Amy is the only daughter of Tony and Josie Greenwood (Sally Keil) and has one older brother Jeff (Brad Flynn), and one younger, Patrick (Matthew Barnes).
After discovering that Lance's mysterious behaviour is attributed to a gambling problem, Amy promptly breaks up with him and they remain friends.
When Amy begins to seemingly disappear for days, it is revealed that she is dating co-worker Damien Smith behind Lance's back.
Fifteen years later, Amy returns to Erinsborough in order to secure the job of designing the new staff uniforms for Lassiter's hotel.
She shows her designs to managers Paul Robinson (Stefan Dennis) and Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou), who tell her she needs to make her application online.
Amy starts brainstorming ideas to promote the bar and mentors Roxy Willis (Zima Anderson), who also applied for her job.
Terese and Paul confront Amy after learning she took responsibility for a fire at the Far North Hotel in Cairns, where she was working as a marketing director.
Amy is pressured to keep the bar's profits up over the winter, so she plans a series of events, starting with a longest workout competition.
Amy kisses Ned Willis (Ben Hall), but they decide to stay friends, as he is her employee and has recently broken up with Yashvi Rebecchi (Olivia Junkeer).
Ned suggests that Amy enters a polyamorous "vee" relationship with both him and Levi, which she eventually agrees to when she realises she has strong feelings for both men.
When Evelyn finds out, she initially disapproves but when Amy makes her see that she has legitimate feelings for Levi, she gives them her blessing.
Amy's daughter, Zara Selwyn (Freya Van Dyke) catches her mother having a threesome with Ned and Levi.
A writer from the BBC said Amy's most notable moment was "Training the men of Ramsay Street for their Full Monty performance.
"[22] A reporter from The Age branded Amy "Ramsay Street's wild child turned party, fashion and gossip queen".
