Ruby Delaney

Ruby Delaney was the wife of Gordon Delaney and the mother of Carmen Delaney. While married to Gordon, the two bought a home in Bolingbrook, Illinois.
Ruby passed away before the events that unfold in The Real Unreal but her influence both on her family and her the house can be seen throughout.
==History==
After her husband decided to conclude his career as a touring jazz musician once Carmen was born, Ruby and Gordon decided that it was time to settle down in Bolingbrook. Ruby cleared out space in the front yard to make a garden and settled into taking care of their daughter while also finding ways to supplement their income.
From their first moments in the house, Ruby felt that the house seemed to “care” for the family. Even claiming that it amplified their lives somehow and that better things happened once they were under its roof. Throughout the house you can see evidence of the family's early years. In the master bedroom upstairs you can read letters that Ruby and Gordon wrote to each other over the span of their relationship. Family photos line the walls along the staircase.
As they aged, Gordon’s eyesight began to fail. Ruby had to care for him, and the garden fell into disuse. A few years ago, Ruby passed and Carmen moved home to care for her father and the house, revitalizing her mother’s garden and creating small decorating projects for herself around the house. Ruby’s tendency to find small ways to supplement income had rubbed off on Carmen, leading Carmen to create a new garden business by the name of Ruby's Garden.
==Trivia==
*Ruby and Jared seem to share the same sensitivity to the house's creative energy and are capable of motivating it to help fulfill their needs.
