[name_u]Walter[/name_u] [name_u]Francis[/name_u] [name_u]Perry[/name_u] (36) is Addyson’s eldest son and a nephew of Rueby’s. He didn’t find out until his early twenties that his parents weren’t married when his mom got pregnant with him. It didn’t change anything, and he just said, “Oh, okay.” He’s always had a very laid-back and chill nature, which proved helpful in mediating between his youngest sibling and their stepdad. [name_u]Walter[/name_u] was 15 when his parents divorced. He took it badly at first, but once he saw that they were still friends and he could still have a good relationship with both parents, he adjusted. His younger siblings adjusted well after a while, too, and all three of them are close to their dad. Since he was twenty-six and out of the house when his mom remarried, [name_u]Walter[/name_u] wasn’t affected by it much. He gets along with his stepdad and step-siblings, and he’s happy for his mom. His two siblings were still living with [name_u]Addyson[/name_u] when she remarried, so they’re closer to Addyson’s husband, although the youngest wasn’t always happy with their stepdad.
[name_u]Walter[/name_u] has heard about his Aunt Lee’s reservations about dating again and the idea his mom has. He will be attending the party and hopes it all goes nicely. [name_u]Walter[/name_u] works at a mechanic shop and is good at what he does. He makes decent money to support his family and likes surprising them with day trips and little gifts. One of his cousins works with him, and [name_u]Walter[/name_u] thinks of her as the older sister he never had. [name_f]Ava[/name_f] Grace’s parents are good friends of Walter’s and his sisters. Walter’s youngest daughter just turned four and loves when she gets to see [name_f]Ava[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. [name_u]Walter[/name_u] has three other children with his wife, but unbeknownst to him, his wife is having an affair with Walter’s stepbrother. Two family members accidentally found out about this recently and are trying to figure out how to tell [name_u]Walter[/name_u]. His oldest daughter has started to suspect and mentioned her suspicions to both of those relatives.
