Nadia Gould

When Nadia was born in San Myshuno, her mother Miley tragically died in childbirth. Her father Barry was heartbroken but continued to raise her along with Miley's relatives. Nadia was shy growing up and was often bullied for supposedly killing her own mother. Although Barry was often too self-pitying to pay attention to her, Nadia maintained a close relationship with housemates Mia Walker and Kathleen Wilburn, who acted as sisterly figures to her throughout her youth.
== New Stepmother ==
Nadia was annoyed when Barry found a new girlfriend in a spiritual woman named Cynthia. The two married and decided to move to Brindleton Bay with Nadia where she would live with her cousins. Nadia reluctantly agreed and reunited with some of her extended family. Just like her father, Nadia developed a passion for acting. She found love in local boy Zayn Olivers. Nadia was less than pleased when Cynthia announced her pregnancy.
== An Evil Companion ==
After breaking up with Zayn, Nadia fell for Archer Bullock due to his mysterious background that attracted her. However, Archer was soon revealed to be evil and calculating, physically abusing Nadia and making her feel worthless. Nadia kept a strong head and lied to her loved ones for a while. Nadia comforted Barry when Cynthia gave birth to Hazel Gould and suddenly disappeared, unable to cope with the pressures of motherhood. Nadia's domestic violence ordeal was revealed when Barry's best friend Gemma West noticed some bruising. Barry discovered the truth and attacked Archer, who disappeared. Nadia felt free to be rid of him, but was shocked to learn she was pregnant with his baby. After months of uncertainty and worry, Nadia gave birth to a girl named Shari Gould.
== Excelling Acting Career ==
Whilst raising Shari, Nadia managed to move on with her life and focused a lot on her acting career. She found great success and became very independent. Nadia was disappointed when Barry married Adriana Landgraab in an out-of-character move, even moving away to live with her. Nadia was left to raise Shari and Hazel with housemate Sam Sanders. When Shari and Hazel were of age, Nadia moved out temporarily to explore her career further, making frequent returns to check up on her daughter and sister.
== Barry's Death ==
Nadia made amends with Barry after he came to his senses and divorced Adriana. Although skeptical at first, Nadia was pleased when Barry found proper love in his longtime best friend Gemma West and made an effort to connect with Gemma and her kids. Nadia also kept a close relationship with Kim, her late uncle Deon's wife and her kids Abraham and April, Nadia's cousins. Nadia was very saddened when Barry died of old age, but took comfort in the fact he found true love at the end of his life.
== Marrying Perry Mondragon ==
Nadia and Shari moved to Willow Creek for a new start, whilst Hazel moved to Del Sol Valley to live with new husband Angelo Goth-Ward. Nadia was skeptical when Shari married Joaquin Espinosa, aware that he was from a criminal family. She then met Perry Mondragon, who fell deep for her. Although he was slightly immature at first and just in the fallout of a relationship to India Landgraab, Nadia made Perry a better man as he moved in with her and married her in a beautiful ceremony with friends and family. Nadia then fell pregnant and later gave birth to her second child Scarlett Mondragon, before later giving birth to her son Milo Mondragon, named after her late mother Miley.
== Leaving a Legacy ==
Nadia was a good mother to her children as they grew up. She feuded with Madeline Myrick when she caused Shari's husband Joaquin's incarceration, and helped Shari through her pregnancy during this time. Nadia was thrilled to meet her first grandchild Keanu Espinosa, and helped to raise him. Nadia and Perry maintained a happy marriage for years until Nadia died of old age, surrounded by her husband and three beloved kids.
