Selena got pregnant and the pair were at a loss. They did not love each other, it was just physical between them. Selena was against an abortion which Vladimir agreed with as well. They took it all in stride, Selena did some pregnancy modeling, ads and articles, even some commercials. When the pair welcomed their daughter they both adored her and named her, Lilah Danushka Gutierrez-Romanov,  Selena retains sole custody of Lilah, who is her mini me in a ton of ways, she's a spunky and fun loving girl who is always moving, but enjoys quiet spa days with her Mama as well. Vladimir is constantly around the world for his modeling career, but he stops by when he can and sends Lilah gifts often.

Todd Emmanuel Morgan [43] and Bethany Rose Morgan [5]

 

Todd married the woman he thought was the love of his life twelve years ago, the pair struggled with infertility at the start of their marriage. Todd's wife, Amy Danielle Morgan (nee Williams), could not get pregnant and after some time and a lot of money spent trying IVF and many other options they decided on using a surrogate and a donated ova to help them have their miracle baby. That baby was a little girl whom they named Bethany Rose Morgan. However, for some reason Amy never bonded with Bethany. She never wanted to help with her or anything of the sort and a year after her birth, Amy filed for divorce. Todd was heartbroken. How could his wife not love their daughter? Todd struggled after that, started to drink, but his family helped to set him on the right and Todd is back on the right track. He adores his daughter and has moved on from his ex-wife, he's been a single father for four years and nothing is more rewarding than that. Recently, he's started going out with a woman who works in the same law firm as he does. They'll be going on their seventh date this week and Todd is thinking of introducing her to Bethany.

David Russell Tennyson [30] and Daniel Ross Tennyson [0]

 

David Tennyson never turned out the way his parents expected, an exceptionally bright young man he attended both MIT and Harvard attaining multiple degrees in sciences and engineering, but when David finally graduated he turned down every job offer he got and moved out to Venice Beach, living in motels and small apartments, working as a painter and selling his works at a low price he enjoyed moseying around and having an easy lifestyle, he had given up contact with his parents and simply lived as he wanted to, that is until recently. David's sort of live in girlfriend, Xenia Nirvana Lovechild [Allison Erika Wentz] - who was ten years his junior, had gotten pregnant. She was contemplating abortion when she told him, asking him for money to go get when he asked her not to. David wanted his child. They disagreed, but David offered her a large sum of money to have the baby and she took it. Three months later and David called his parents, apologized and they came on out, they helped David put a down payment on a two bedroom apartment and David took to doing his art as just a hobby and got a job as a reputable company where he would easily make six figures. As per a contact set up by a lawyer hired by David's parents Xenia had their baby and signed away her custody of him to David who named his son Daniel Ross Tennyson and David plans to turn his life around fully, his parents staying out with him for the first few weeks and he's been looking for an aupair to help raise Daniel as he'll be a single working papa, but David would have it no other way.

Sergent Sean Jethro Murpehy [34], Alistair Leroy Murphy [3] and Flint Gannon Murphy [3mos.] 

 

Sergent Sean Murphy is a discharged marine currently working at the nation's capitol as an NCIS officer. Originally from Savannah, Georgia Sean met his late wife, Fiona Leanne Murphy (nee Gannon), when the pair were in elementary school, they were high school sweethearts and married when Fiona was 17 and Sean was 18. Sean entered the marines right after he graduated while Fiona went on to attend college for both a B.A and a Masters which she used to become a nurse. Sean went on many tours throughout his youth and though they wanted children, the pair decided to wait until Sean had finished his abroad service and they were more financially secure to start having children. They welcomed their first son, Alistair Leory Murphy, three years ago and could not have been happier, they loved him and loved being a family, a year after his birth Fiona retired to be a stay-at-home mother. They adored their mischievous ball of energy and not too long after decided to have another. Everything seemed to be going well, until the birth. A complication occurred and in the process Fiona passed away, but their son made it, instead of naming him what they had planned, Donovan William Murphy, Sean decided to name his new son after his wife and named him Flint Gannon Murphy.  Things have been a little hard since then, but Sean has a great support system of family and fellow marines to support him and while he misses Fiona dearly everyday he feels better when he sees Flint laugh in the same manner or her dimples when Alistair smiles.

Ashley Georgia Michelle Deveraux [26] and Maia Daffodil Lyric Deveraux [3]

 

Growing up, Ashley Deveraux was a daddy's girl. She grew up in the lap of luxury and never took anything seriously, she partied all through out her life and everything was simply the next biggest thrill for her, she attended and thrown out of numerous private schools in NYC, but her parents did not take much notice. Her mother and father were divorced and while she lived with her father as her mother somewhere in the Mediterranean with new husband #4, her own father was a workaholic, constantly jetting away for meetings all over the world and Ashly was left to be raised by the maids and nannies. She ended up attending FIT and graduated with barely passable grades thanks to her lackluster nature. However, Ashley was quite the party girl and a week after her graduation she hooked up with a guy and the condom ended up breaking, the mystery man was gone by the time Ashley woke up, but he was not soon forgotten as that one night left Ashley pregnant. She was shocked and called her parents crying, neither could come too busy for her. So, Ashley confided in the maid who raised her and they made a plan, Ashley started to attend rehab and she kept her baby, she had a lovely daughter whom she named Maia Daffodil Lyric Deveraux. That was all three years ago, currently, Ashley is working in fashion as a designer and does well enough working with victoria secret, she's a very hands on mother and is constantly with Maia, she does not want her daughter to grow up with money as a form of love like she did. Maia is a sweet little girl and is very shy, she does not say much, but when she does its very powerful and wise.

Adam Winston Lowell [28] and Micah Dennis Lowell [5]

 

Adam Lowell was the king of his high school in Houston, Texas. He dated cheerleaders, was the captain of the football team and even got a scholarship to Vanderbilt to play for their team despite not being the sharpest crayon in the box. It was there he met the love of his life and his deceased wife, Eleanor "Ellie" Primrose Lowell (nee Denton), she was his assigned tutor to make sure Adam did not fail all of his classes, but could still dedicate his time to football predominately. She was a nerd and he was a jock and it was every cliche in the book, but they fell in love.They got married a year after graduation and Adam started as a high school football coach and Ellie worked in business. Shortly after they welcomed their son, Micah Dennis Lowell, who despite having his father's build had all of his mothers coloring from her light strawberry blonde hair to her emerald green eyes. They were very excited, they wanted to have a large family, Adam had been an only child and Ellie had five siblings, four older and one younger. Just two years after having Micah, Ellie was pregnant again. The pair were expecting twins of an unknown gender. They were thrilled, but tragedy struck, while coming home from work Ellie's car was struck by a drunk driver, everyone involved died on impact. Adam was a mess, he started drinking, he wasn't taking good care of Micah and handed his son over to his parents. He left, and came back four months later still a total wreck. His family got him into rehab and therapy and a year later he was cleaned up, got a new job and custody of Micah back from his parents. It's been another year and  half since then and things are looking up for Adam, while he is not ready to date yet he happy in his life with him and Micah, and he knows Ellie and their two angel babies are watching over them.

Monica Nicole Wyeth (formerly Fuller) [35], Alexandra Rochelle Wyeth [7] and Pepper Virginia Wyeth [4]

 

Monica Wyeth, formerly Fuller, has not had the easiest of lives. She was a wallflower of a girl growing up because she felt she was "average" looking and let people, mostly guys, taking advantage of her. Her parents died young in a car accident and Monica was raised by her maternal aunt and uncle who had four kids of their own. So, Monica just went along in life, went through school a decent student, took part in some activities and went to college and then worked in retail after getting out for a number of years. She had a string of boyfriends who were no good, but then she met a man who changed her life, Alexander Robert Fuller, he swept her away and they married in less than a few months. Monica was 27 and Alexander had been 30. Soon enough they got pregnant and Alexander was thrilled, he couldn't wait for his little man to come, he'd be a junior of his daddy. They never found out the sex and at the birth, things were...a shock. The pair welcomed a beautiful baby girl. Alexander was furious. Monica tried to soothe it over, named their daughter after him, Alexandra Rochelle Fuller, Alexander was angry after all of that and mostly ignored his daughter, he drank a lot, and sometimes he even hit Monica. They kept trying for "his son" as Alexander put it, and miscarried four times in three years before getting pregnant again. They then welcomed their second daughter, Pepper Virginia Fuller, to say Alexander was not happy was an understatement. He went on a bender. He came back, apologized,but was still bitter. Less than a year later Monica became pregnant again, but she had a still birth, a little boy. Alexander lost it. He left an angry letter and ran off with his secretary, who it turned out was pregnant with a baby boy. Monica was at a loss. She knew not what to do, but she pulled herself back up, she got her life together. She finally realized she deserved better. She removed Alexander's last name and changed her daughters' last names. She's officially dating a nice guy in the law office where she is a paralegal. He happens to be a single parent of a daughter as well, they've both bonded over their past abusive spouses.  Soon enough they plan to introduce their daughters.

{33} Victoria Lynn Edwards & {8 mos} Luca Maxwell Edwards

Victoria, or Tori, married her high school sweetheart when they were both 22 in small, backyard ceremony. After Greg finished his masters, they moved into a small 2-bedroom house and Tori began thinking about starting a family. A year later, Tori found out she was pregnant. When she told Greg, he acted happy but Tori could tell something was off. Tragically, at 9 weeks, Tori miscarried, and when she broke this news to Greg he seemed relieved. Tori called him out, and within a month they had separated and were filing for divorce. After this, Tori went back to school and got her nursing degree. Just after her 30th birthday, she decided she still wanted children and began looking into adoption. It was a long and arduous process but a little over a year ago she was matched with an expectant teen, and now Victoria is the proud and happy mom to Luca Maxwell.

{34} David Leo Bracken & {5} Avery Eloise Bracken

Growing up, David and his brother James were always incredibly close. David was three-years older but there was never a time when one wasn't with the other. They were attached at the hip and best friends. In 2010, James and his wife Rachel welcomed a baby girl named Avery. A year-and-a-half later, David received the worst phone call possible: James and Rachel had been killed in a drunk-driving accident. When the will was read 2 weeks later, David was shocked to find that he had been named as sole guardian to Avery. It had definitely been a learning experience with many ups and downs, but David and Avery make a great pair and love each other endlessly. David's girlfriend of a year is also a big fan of little Miss Avery.

{26} Kayla Vivian Rhodes & {8} Evie May Rhodes

Kayla and her boyfriend Marcus Mitchell had been going out for 6 months when she found out she was pregnant. Terrified, she waited almost 2 months to tell Marcus. The night she was planning to tell him,  she ran into Marcus' mother (who did not like Kayla). And when Kayla blurted out that she was pregnant, Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell made it clear that their son would have nothing to do with the baby or Kayla. They gave Kayla a large sum of money and bought her a plane ticket to Portland, Oregon. 5 years later she sent Marcus an email with a photo of Evie attached. He responded in an absolutely shocked manner, but regretted to inform her that he was married and expecting twin boys. Kayla was upset at first but knew that her best life was with her daughter and there was nothing that could ruin it.

{39} Patrick Ian Montgomery & {6} Isla Marion Montgomery

Patrick Montgomery was a renowned orthopedic surgeon and engaged to be married when on a business trip in France, he had a brief, one-week long affair with Ophelie Rainier. A month later, she called to inform him that she was pregnant and was starting the paperwork for the baby to be adopted. Patrick immediately knew that a child of his would not be put up for adoption and so he broke the news to his fiance (who threw the ring at him) and prepared for his daughter. Isla Juliette was born in a Washington, D.C. hospital and a week later Ophelie flew back to France relinquishing all parental rights. Now Isla is 6-years old and is her daddy's light and joy.

{30} John Rhys Towers & {0} August Charlie Towers

Three months ago, John Towers had the perfect life. His wife of two years, Charlotte, was expecting their first baby, he had just been promoted and had officially paid off the mortgage on his 3-bedroom-with-a-backyard. And then at a routine ultrasound, the doctor told John and Charlotte that Charlotte was suffering from a rare heart-valve defect that would greatly complicate the pregnancy and labour. The doctor told them she had about a 30-40% of surviving the pregnancy but Charlotte was determined to go through with it. On September 8, she went into labour. She and her doctor had decided a C-section was the safest option out of the two, but Charlotte was unable to survive even that. Little August Charlie was small, but a fighter, and the only thing that kept Dad from slipping away into depression.

{34} Sam Edward Ashton & {4} Rowan Kai Ashton & {9 mos} Finn Elliot Ashton

Sam Ashton and Molly Webber met 5 years ago at a party hosted by their mutual friends. Sam was 29 and Molly was 24. They exchanged numbers and for the next month they spent a lot of time together but it soon fizzled out. 2 years later, Molly showed up on Sam's doorstep with a suitcase and his infant son, Rowan, in tow. It took Sam a while to wrap his head around it, but eventually he accepted that he had a son, and allowed Molly to stay at his place while they figured stuff out. Soon, they fell into their old habits and a couple months later, they were officially a couple. Things were not always smooth-sailing though. Molly had a quick-temper and an impulsive drinking problem and was incredibly irresponsible with Rowan. And then, she found herself pregnant again. 8 months after that, she gave birth Finn, and less than 2 months later, she had packed her bags and moved out. It has been hard for Sam, as a single dad, but he has incredible support from family and friends and absolutely adores his sons.

{25} Nora Brooke Ellis & {3} Luna Marigold Ellis

Nora's child was far from perfect. Her mother and father constantly fought, and both had a major drinking problem. When she turned 18, she stole $3000 from her parents and moved out to start a new life. But life on her own in New York was just as hard, if not harder, and after 3 months she still hadn't found a job. Then, one of her friend's suggested a high-class companionship service. Nora was appalled and immediately shut the idea down. But after another 3 weeks of living on Ramen and Kraft Dinner, Nora reluctantly gave it a try. For 3 years, life was good for her. The money was incredible and the employment was not as degrading as she had expected. And then, she fell in love with one of her clients and he fell in love with her. However, there was no chance he was leaving his wife and so Nora was relegated to the role of mistress. When she broke the news to him that she was pregnant, he promised he would support her financially, but that he could not be involved. Life as a single mother has been difficult and trying, but Nora would not have it any other way and loves her mini-me, Luna. She recently got a job working at a bookstore and has begun taking night classes to become a social worker.

{36} Austin Cole Bradford & {4} Noah Joseph Bradford

Austin and his ex-wife Hannah, met in an airport during a snowstorm that left them both waiting over 12-hours for their flights. The courtship was short, and within a year, the high school football coach was marrying a international relations diplomat. Hannah traveled a lot and so when it came time to buy a house, her only requirement was that it be no more than half-an-hour away from an airport. With just one criteria, Austin picked his home state of North Carolina, where he quite promptly secured a job as the local high school's football coach and history teacher. A year later, Hannah found herself pregnant. She was 30 years old, and had not planned to have children until at least 36 or 37. But Austin convinced her to keep the baby, and soon they were parents to little Noah. For the first year, everything was wonderful. Hannah and Austin were in love with their baby boy, and Hannah had lots of time off work. But when work started to pick up again, things got difficult. Eventually, Hannah and Austin saw it for what it was, and decided to end the relationship for Noah's sake. It has been about 2 years since the divorce, and Hannah sees Noah for about a week every month. She is still an amazing mother, but for the time being, Austin is the more involved parent, and loves every day of it.

{32} Melissa Diane Gibbons & {6} Stella Charlotte Gibbons & {3} Ava Emerson Gibbons

On a warm, fall day, in 2007, Melissa Erhart became Melissa Gibbons. Wearing a beautiful and simple white gown she married her boyfriend of 6-years and fiance of 2, Benjamin Gibbons. They lived in a little white house, with a bright yellow door, and were parents to energetic puppies named Milo and Moo. A year after their wedding they welcomed their first baby, a girl named Stella. They adored her, and knew they wanted many more, so they started trying six months later. But after almost two years of trying they still were not pregnant, so they turned to IVF. It only took two rounds, and Melissa was holding a positive pregnancy test. At their 10-week scan, they were floored to find out they were expecting twins. At 33-weeks, Melissa naturally delivered Ava Emerson and Theo Blake. And then, tragedy struck the perfect little family. It was a very hot summer evening when the tornado came barreling through the Oklahoma City region. The Gibbons family hunkered down in their tornado shelter, but the storm was too powerful and when the chaos died down, Ben and Theo were gone. Two days later, the rescue crew found them, together, about a mile away. Two years have passed since losing Ben and Theo, and not a day goes by that Melissa doesn't think about her boys. But she knows she has to stay strong for Stella and Ava and so every morning she wakes up and reminds herself how lucky she is to have them.

{23} Jacob Anton Schultz & {2} Ellie Pippa Schultz

Jacob was just a regular college student, with a regular college girlfriend and regular part-time job, when his aforementioned girlfriend (Emily) dropped the news on him, that she was pregnant. They were both in their junior year and both wanted to finish college. However where they differed was in the fact that Jacob wanted to raise his child, and Emily wanted to put the baby up for adoption. In the months preceding the birth, it was a constant battle over what to do with the baby until finally, Jacob proposed he raise the child on his own, and Emily didn't have to have anything to do with it. After a brief moment of hesitation, Emily agreed and a week later she gave birth to Ellie. With help from his parents and by picking up extra shifts, Jacob was able to finish his degree and become the best dad anyone could have ever imagined. Now, he and Ellie rent out the basement suite in his aunt & uncle's house and he works as a junior magazine editor.

{28} Katie Brianna Finch & {3} Gavin Archer Finch & {0} Oliver Miles Finch

Ten years ago, if you had told Katie Lowell that she would be living in Hawaii and raising two young boys on her own, she would have laughed in your face and called you crazy. Then, at 21, while on a vacation to Hawaii, she met and fell head-over-heels in love with Eric Finch, a Private First Class in the US Army. They were engaged a year later, and married a year after that. Then he was shipped out on his first tour, 12 months in Iraq. Thankfully he came home unscathed and within a month, Katie was expecting their first baby, a son. Gavin was born on November 18, and two months later, Eric left for his second tour, this time only 8 months. With a young baby, life was difficult for Katie, but her in-laws were very supportive and loving. In the last month of his second tour, Eric was injured and sent home early. Recovery was painful but there was no permanent damage. A year after coming home, he registered to go on one more tour. The day before he left, Katie surprised him with the news that she was expecting again! As of right now, Eric is in Syria and has only met his second son, Oliver, through Skype, but cannot wait to come home and meet him.

In school, Cam Whitall was always the cool-guy, jokester, jock. He had lots of friends and a steady stream of "girlfriends". But there was one girl who had always had a thing for, but could never win over. Sophie Barnett was shy, beautiful and brilliant and there was just something about her, that made Cam go absolutely mad. One day, he worked up the courage to ask her out. Timidly she said yes, and from then on, it was the perfect romance. After high school, Cam secured an entry-level job at a music producing company, while Sophie began attending school to become a midwife. Cameron proposed to Sophie on the same night she was going to tell him she was pregnant. They were both equally nervous but also very excited to meet their child. 7 months later, Sophie and Cam welcomed Lucy Whitall into the world. A couple months after that, Sophie received the devastating news, that she had a rare form of advanced leukemia. Knowing her chances weren't great, she and Cam married quickly and moved to the seaside where Sophie had always wanted to live. Her fight against the cancer was brave, but only a couple weeks after Lucy turned one, Sophie Whitall passed away peacefully. Cameron and Lucy still live in their seaside flat and every night, Cam tells his daughter a story about her mum, making sure they don't ever forget.

1. Lauren Emily Michaels (24) and Cale Oliver Michaels (2)
Lauren Michaels didn't quite fit in at her college. She was a bit of a hipster and had her own defined style that was way ahead of its time. So when she got invited to a crazy frat party, she was eager to do anything that impressed the mean, preppy sorority girls. They were playing a much dirtier spin the bottle and it got way out of hand. Lauren found out she was pregnant and felt ashamed, though she knew she'd love her child. After graduating, Lauren found a steady job at a pharmaceutical company. She and Cale love going to the beach and playing together. Lauren has been a little wary of boys ever since her pregnancy, but she is letting her guard down slowly and is developing a crush on a coworker, Jeremy Nichols.


2. Shane Henry Avon (31) and Bridget Caroline Avon (5)
Shane met Bridget's mother Caroline when they were eleven. He had a crush on her all through high school, though she never expressed interest until they bumped into each other again at a coffee shop. They hit it off and started dating, marrying two years later and welcoming Bridget the year after that. Then, three years ago, Shane forgot to pick up the dry cleaning one day. Angry, Caroline told him to go pick him up, but then decided she'd "just have to do it myself." She was in a car accident in which she died instantly on the way home. Shane beat himself up about it, saying that it should've been him. He has poured his heart into raising "Bridge" and spoils her a little bit, but she is a good, well-behaved kid who loves nature,


3. Kate Rebecca Yarbrough (26) and Indiana "Indie" May Yarbrough (7)
Nineteen-year-old Kate was as Southern and naïve as they come. She and her boyfriend had been dating for two years, and they decided to try for a baby. Kate's mother was only seventeen when she was born, so she thought it was okay. After Indie was born, her boyfriend took off to a college somewhere, leaving Kate alone and afraid in a small Southern town outside of Asheville. She moved into the city when Indie was two. She got a job as a bartender and did what she could to make ends meet. Life was hard, but finally she landed a position as a secretary in a legal office after going back to school at night. She is interested in guys again but her daughter is her top priority.


4. Nicholas "Nick" Evan Barnes (38) and Josephine "Josie" Tate Barnes (5)
Nick Barnes ran a tight ship. A retired Navy SEAL, he was very strict with his wife and toddler daughter. Finally, his wife had had enough. She left him a note saying, 'We're through. Take care of Josie.' After his wife Miranda left, he knew he had to loosen up. He scrapped his rules and made his and his daughter's lives much more easygoing. Nick still loves Miranda and was going to contact her, but he saw an engagement announcement in the newspaper and decided not to. He wants to get back into dating for Josie's sake, but he's really not interested in anyone but Miranda.


5. Christopher "Chris" William Juneau (32) and Brady William Elliot Juneau (four months)
Chris and Ellie Juneau were very happy together. They'd been dating since college and shared similar interests, both being detectives. Ellie was shot in the field a month ago by a psychopathic spree killer. All through surgery, Chris yelled at the world while his team tried to calm him down. When the doctors announced that Ellie hadn't made it, Chris broke down, but he knew he couldn't do anything stupid for the sake of their infant son who had been born three months earlier. Chris added Elliot to Brady's name to honor Ellie, and he would've made it the first name, but Ellie had picked Brady. Chris blames himself for her death and vows never to date again.


6. Jamie Everett Phillips (28), Porter Jason Phillips (6), and Brennan Jake Phillips (3)
Jamie and Evelyn Phillips were not happy together. Jamie and Evelyn grew up in the most rural of towns where arranged marriage was still a custom at the time, when Jamie was 21 and Evelyn was 20. Their parents were like the mayors of the town, so it was only natural that they were paired together. Right after Brennan was born, Evelyn ran away. Her whereabouts are still unknown and there's a legend that she'll come back one day and ruin everyone's lives. Despite all this drama surrounding their family, Porter and Brennan are bright happy boys who love their father. Jamie is a very protective father who wishes that his boys would grow up with a mother, but he is not rebellious like Evelyn and he would never leave his town.


7. Jessica Jane Ashby (30) and Lola Scarlett Castellano (3)
Jessica Ashby is a singer and actress. Jessica was engaged to action star Jed Castellano. The proposal was a little forced, as they were just trying to calm the press down about the birth of their daughter as the magazine headlines were things like "Jessica and Jed -- Who Will Get the Baby?" and "Can Little Lola Play Matchmaker? Unofficial Couple Welcomes Daughter." Finally, after a huge fight, Jed stormed out and told her to raise the baby herself. Jessica has strived to do just that, and while the press had a field day when Jessica removed her ring, she hasn't let it affect her or Lola. Lola is a sweet, shy little girl that Jessica hopes will never have to deal with Hollywood.


8. Michael "Mick" Jordan (33) and Ross Alexander Jordan (5)
Mick Jordan was a famous football player until he broke his knee during a game. His nurse during his rehabilitation was a pretty blonde named Sarah. Mick flirted with Sarah every chance he got and though Sarah would have never admitted it at the time, she liked him back. After Mick could walk again, he asked her out on a date and she said yes, to both of their surprise. The relationship was short-lived, however, as Sarah thought that Mick was irresponsible. Sarah and Mick are still friends, and while Mick still flirts, he knows his limits. They share joint custody of Ross, though Sarah often asks Mick to pick Ross up if she's running late (which is most of the time). Ross and Mick love throwing the football around with each other in their big backyard.


9. Mara Lily Costner (37), Juliet Avery Costner "Jac" (6), and Hallee Olive Costner (2)
Mara and Jude Costner loved life, until one day, Jude saw Mara wave at the guy behind the coffee counter and freaked out, punching him and yelling at him. Mara, shaken, made Jude go to a therapist, who then diagnosed him as bipolar. Jude was very scared, as was Mara, as she was pregnant with Hallee at the time. After Hallee was born and Jude had been in the hospital for a while, Mara got some terrible news. Jude, ridden with anger and grief, had hung himself. Fearing for her sanity and the well-being if Jac and Hallee, Mara moved away and they started over in Texas. Jude was Mara's first and last love, and she'll never forget him. Jac knows what happened to her daddy, but Mara's hoping that she can keep Hallee in the dark.


10. Kyle Evan Saxon (25) and Ivy Annabelle Mercer (2)
Olivia (nee Saxon) and James Mercer were the most normal couple you could ever imagine--sweet, loving, and very cute together. They conceived their daughter when Olivia was 27 and James was 30. Eight months after her birth, Olivia and James were killed in a plane crash. Devastated, Olivia's little brother Kyle knew that he had to raise his niece to honor his sister's memory. Kyle and Ivy love each other. Kyle reads her books and Ivy "teaches" the art school grad how to draw. He loves his niece and couldn't ask for a better little family.


11. Bailey Emma Patterson (32), Logan Scott Patterson(3), and Bradley Boone Patterson (nb)
Scott Patterson had been missing for three months. They found him dead two weeks ago in a shallow grave right outside Fort Lauderdale. Bailey is struggling to cope with the sudden loss and is scared for her sons' futures without a paternal figure. Scott's killer has still not been caught, and while every available local officer and teams from the FBI are working on the serial case, he will likely vanish into thin air. Bailey wants someone to pay for taking her darling Scott away from her. In the meantime, Bailey has her hands full with her boys at home. She wants the best for them, but isn't sure how to give them the best when they don't have a dad.


12. Donovan Cole Bracy (31) and Ella Cassidy Bracy (3)
Donovan and Michelle Bracy were one week away from getting married when Michelle had a heart attack. Heart conditions ran in her family, and just in case, she'd already written her will. Donovan was shocked and hurt and scared for his daughter. Donovan and Michelle had already made peace with the fact that Michelle could die any day with her faulty heart, but that didn't stop him from taking it hard. To honor his fiancée, every night, Donovan and Ella light a candle and say, together, "We love you, Mommy." Ella is a bright, sweet little thing who is loved by Donovan's parents and all of Michelle's siblings. Donovan doesn't think he'll ever get over Michelle, as she was so special and different.
