Daphne Diaz

**Daphne Diaz** is a main character of ***Stuck in the Middle***. She is the youngest child in the Diaz family of seven kids. She is known for being the toughest of them all and full of mischief and often comes off as an antagonist.

Daphne is portrayed by Ariana Greenblatt.

## Personality

Daphne may be the youngest but she is definitely the toughest of the Diaz kids. Her older siblings (even Rachel) are scared of her because she's not afraid to hurt them both physically and emotionally. She loves blackmailing her siblings like the time she threatens to tell Harley's secret if Harley doesn't give her money and her cute sweater. She is mischievous and enjoys getting her siblings in trouble by lying or by simply ratting them out as seen when she causes them to get punished into a lockdown. She easily gets away with her mischief because she is the youngest. But she only does this for the attention of her siblings.

Daphne plays by her own rules. She is strong-willed and independent and does not seek validation from her family or anyone else. She does not care what others think of her as seen in the way she doesn't care about fashion or acting girly and sophisticated. Her best friend is Deathnee, a creepy doll she uses to scare her siblings. She behaves like a gangster and her siblings call her a thug or *"Thug Life"* sometimes.

In spite of Daphne's toughness, there is a sentimental side to her. For example, when her playhouse is recalled for being dangerous in Stuck with a Dangerous House, she still wants it back because of the memories it holds. She also goes for great lengths to fight to get Deathnee back from another girl in Stuck at Christmas - The Movie. And in Stuck in Lockdown, she is only selling Harley's stuff because she's sad that Harley no longer plays with her.

## Biography

Daphne is the last-born child of Tom and Suzy Diaz. She is the youngest sister of Rachel, Georgie, Ethan, Harley, Lewie, and Beast. She attends Marshport Elementary School with the twins.

When not in school, Daphne spends some of her time playing with her creepy dolls, especially her favorite, Deathnee. She also holds invisible tea parties with them. This is seen several times including in Stuck in a Slushy War when she asks Rachel to join her tea party. When Rachel forces her to ditch the creepy Deathnee and get a cuter doll for the party, she ends up sneaking Deathnee into the party. Daphne and Deathnee are inseparable; and so, when another girl takes Deathnee in Stuck at Christmas - The Movie, Daphne goes to fight her and is willing to jeopardize the entire Christmas trip to get Deathnee back.

Besides Deathnee, the other thing that Daphne cares most about is her playhouse where she sleeps. Since Stuck in the Sweet Seat, Daphne has been sleeping in a dog bed in the playhouse. However, in Stuck with a Dangerous House, the playhouse is recalled because of its faulty roof and Daphne is forced to move in with her sisters. Neither Daphne nor her sisters want the arrangement. So, they help Daphne to get another safe playhouse, but Daphne rejects it. She wants the original one because it had a lot of memories. So, Harley modifies the original playhouse to make it safe for Daphne to continue using.

Daphne also likes to play with the twins Lewie and Beast but sometimes they don't like to play with her mostly because they're scared of her. In Stuck with a Guy on the Couch, she wants to be their bouncer in the frog-wrestling matches. In Stuck in the Block Party, she offers to train them as firefighters but takes it too far until they decide they don't want to be firefighters anymore. Her parents take advantage of this tension to use Daphne to make Lewie and Beast from camping outside in Stuck with a Boy Genius. Since Lewie and Beast have Detectives Peeby and Jay characters from one of Ethan's films, Daphne invents her own character, a rogue police officer Sasha Phluff in Stuck in a Mysterious Robbery.

## Physical Appearances

Daphne has dark brown eyes and dark brown hair that is always messy. Often times her hair is either down, in ponytails or pigtails and is worn with one or multiple types of hairpieces. She is shorter than everyone in her family, which makes sense since she's the youngest member.
