==Background==
Robert Queen was from the Queen family, a wealthy and influential family in Starling City. In his twenties, he became business partners and best friends with Walter Steele, and eventually Malcolm Merlyn and Frank Chen. He married Moira Dearden; however, their marriage was anything but perfect. Their firstborn child, Oliver, born in May 16, 1985, but he had multiple affairs, becoming an unfaithful husband. Robert continued having hundreds of affairs, one of which resulted in the birth of his daughter, Emiko Adachi in 1989. In retaliation, Moira had a brief affair with Malcolm, which lead to to Thea's birth on 1995, long after the death of Malcolm's wife, Rebecca. Because Malcolm went away to Nanda Parbat, Tommy went to live within Queen Mansion for the time his father left. Robert treated the boy as of he was his second son.
Though he knew Thea was not his biological daughter, Robert loved her as if she were his own child.
Robert abandoned Emiko and her mother, chosing his marriage with Moira and their children, Oliver and Thea. However, Robert later regretted this, especially turning down Emiko's ideas for Queen Consolidated and giving the company to Oliver one day. He wrote a letter in the form of an apology and made sure that amico and her mother were provided for. However, Moira discovered the affair and destroyed the letter of apology to prevent Emiko's claim to the family fortune.
