they have pretty similarish backgrounds too! conservative parents but her dad is big into real estate instead of a politician and they didn't like that she became more of a free spirit exotic dancer on the strip instead of going into the family business of being stuffy assholes. she left them about 6-7 years ago to move to boston where she was a burlesque dancer until a couple months ago when she left to start her own business. i think they're pretty close in age too so they could definitely be school buddies?
