Dane Gould

Dane was the youngest child of Desmond Gould and the second child of Felicia Gould. He grew up in Brindleton Bay much loved and cherished by his two parents. He also had a close relationship with Julia, his half-sister by Felicia and Archie Rockwell. Dane saw Julia's boyfriend Garrett as a brotherly figure as he developed into adulthood. When Cara Barbery moved in for business purposes, Dane fell in love with her and the two began to date. Although Felicia and Desmond were skeptical at first, they accepted her as Dane married Cara. Dane always felt slightly resented by Desmond's other kids Elvis, Wanda and Monica because they had been abandoned by Desmond for Felicia. Dane was thrilled when Cara gave birth to a son they named Ronen. Dane had a close friendship with his cousin and temporary housemate Mercedes Goth amidst the scandal that she was revealed as not an actual Goth by blood. Dane acknowledged that Cara was leaving the house a lot but thought nothing of it. He was thrilled to learn Cara was pregnant and was shocked when she later gave birth to twins Chance and Fatima. However, it later transpired that Dane was not their biological father and Cara had been having an affair with manipulative businessman Alec Devine. Heartbroken, Dane divorced Cara and kicked her out with her kids, continuing to raise Ronen alone with the help of his parents. Dane was saddened when Desmond died of old age, and said farewell as his mother died later too.
