## Relationships (Maine)

#### Violet LeFleur

Violet was the result of Daphne's fling with Harrison Thomas, she had Violet when she was not looking for any children, so her behavior towards Violet when she was a child was not appropriate. Daphne often left Violet to care for herself, or with Calvin, their butler. Daphne does say she was not a great mother, but does not regret her behavior, like Beverly does.

#### Penny O'Conner

Penny met Daphne by chance when Flo crashed their car in the front of the mansion. Scared of a lawsuit, they agreed to help her fix it, as well as renovate the whole mansion. During this, Daphne, Flo and Penny become great friends. Penny is a bit more 'down to earth' and is sometimes frusterated with both Daphne and Flo.

#### Flo Wimsey

Flo crashed her car in the front of Daphne's mansion, with Penny in it. To compensate with their damages, Flo and Penny agree to help renovate the whole mansion. Flo and Daphne have the same energy, and seem to get along better.

#### Dave

Dave was the owner of the crashed car in Daphne's house, and because of her generosity, Daphne invited him to stay with them, and he did. He is usually the "peacemaker" in their arguements.

#### Mike Jones

Mike Jones was the local police officer in Daphne's neighborhood, and he was her only friend for a long while before Penny and Flo came. Mike often did rounds to her house, and checked up on her. Now he was here because he had a report of a stolen car.

#### Calvin

Calvin was Daphne's butler, they had known each other for 50 years, and he was always there to help her through her hard times, Calvin fathered Daphne's daughter, Violet, and acted as a friend for Daphne herself. Calvin spoiled her, and they would often be out stargazing, or eating hotdogs. It was later revealed that Calvin was in love with Daphne.

#### Mary LaRosa

Daphne met Mary when she was casted as Florence Nightingale, while they were friends before, Daphne and Mary became closer, and Daphne often mentions her when talking about the movies she starred in.

#### Harrison Thomas

Harrison Thomas was a short fling, but a long romantic partner for Daphne. He was the closest she will have to a boyfriend, and he was supposedly Violets father.

## Relationships (New York)

#### Charles

Charles and Daphne go back to the 1940's, and they met in Roger Galloways seminar. Both of them stayed friends, and while their attitudes clash because Daphne is more emotional, and Charles is more logical, in the end they know each other best.

#### Beverly Ray

Beverly and Daphne also met in the 1940's in Roger Galloways seminar. They both have the same nature, so they are often fighting or disagreeing about many things, but they are still best friends despite everything.

#### Vivian LaRosa

While not much is known about Vivian, Daphne mentioned that they used to be friends and met in the same Roger Galloway seminar, before she disappeared.

#### Lou Yung

Lou Yung was another one of Daphne's flings, but their relationship was not romantic, in fact, Daphne described that both of them "used each other, one for fame, and another popularity". Once Lou stopped cooperating in Daphne's plans, she dumped him and got him kicked out of Hollywood; she does say that she regrets it, but it was for the better.

#### Shirley Sparkle

Shirley was Daphne's mentor and inspiration, she learned how to party from Shirley, and they something more than a teacher/student relationship.
