She has a mum, a dad, a sister and a half-sister; dad's illegitimate child of whom she knows nothing about, even whether she really is her half-sister. People who know more about this are her mother, with whom she's barely spoken about it, father with whom she's never spoken about it, and her sister who will not talk about it.
