## Biography

Ham is Celia's husband and Bex's dad. Up until Andi's 13th birthday, Andi thought that Ham was her father. When Bex came home for the birthday, Ham was happy to see her return and he tried to calm Celia down. Since then, Ham has been trying to keep everything calm in the midst of the tension among Celia, Bex and Andi.

In Outside the Box, Ham tries to help Bex bond with the rest of the family during family dinner memory games. He even tries to help Bex cheat just so she can fit in. When the family secret is exposed to everyone in Dancing in the Dark, Ham tries to calm Celia down by taking her away for a getaway. Unfortunately, their trip is cut short when their neighbor calls them about the party. This infuriates Celia so much that she refuses to talk to Bex and Andi. Ham steps in to help fix things and when Bex reveals that Andi was asking about her dad but Bex doesn't know how to begin and tell him that he has a daughter he didn't know existed. Ham tells Bex that Andi's dad knows she exists but doesn't know that she is his daughter. In It's Not About You, Ham gives Bex Bowie Quinn's email address and asks her to write to him about his daughter - he deserves to know the truth. When Bex can't figure out what to write to Bowie, Ham tries to help but they both end up just writing "hey!" Lucky for them, Bowie comes over and all they need to do, is deal with Celia.
