Backstory
Not much is known about Desphina's backstory. She was raised by her parents and was an only child.

During high school, she met Alfred, but didn't really talk to him. After high school, she didn't see him again until she was working at a hospital as a nurse about ten years later. He had broken his arm and she was assigned to him. They fell in love and started dating. Aphrodite gave him a hard time because she thought he was Arnold, an old flame of hers. Zeus, Alfred, and Desphina had to calm her down every time. Soon, she realized he wasn't Arnold and came to love him like a son. Eventually, he proposed to her, and she accepted. Their wedding went smoothly without any major troubles.

When Desphina told her father that she was pregnant, he had a heart attack and had to go to a hospital. He ended up passing away, and Desphina blamed herself, but the real reason was that Zeus had already been suffering from a disease.

Months later, a few days before Abby was born, Aphrodite passed due to diabetes. Desphina thought she was a curse for a while and suffered from depression, but Alfred helped her through it.

When Abby was born, both Desphina and Alfred helped raise her. They impacted her life the most by playing and taking care of her.

Around the time Champ was born, Alfred left for an unknown reason. Whether he left his family or he left this world is unknown, and there are no photos of him in the house.

Desphina had to work the long late-night shifts, leaving Abby to take care of Champ. Because of this, she didn't get to be close to Champ like she did with Abby.

Desphina manages to see Abby off and comfort's her daughter's worries by telling her that she and Champ will be fine. She then leaves to head to work.

Diaries
Abby writes that she has emailed Desphina a few times and that the latter was very proud of her. Desphina is also mentioned in one of Abby's diary entries.
