HISTORY Tilly was, unsurprisingly due to the accent, born in Australia to Christian Ryce and Elenour Watts who, at the time, was Elenour Ryce. From when she was a couple of months old onwards her parents had her doing swimming lessons and it was clear even to strangers that they wanted their daughter to grow up to be the perfect little lady they believed she was destined to be. Even in primary school she was pushed to do well in everything she attempted. Tilly was the sole victim of their pressure and pride until she was seven and her parents had twins, Jaime and Juliette.

During this time a lot of her parent's attention left her and was given to her younger siblings and although Tilly loved them dearly she became envious of the way their parents dotted over them but now ignored her. So she found herself believing that she wasn't good enough and that she had to do better and work harder to earn their attention - this is where her competitiveness was born and nurtured. Or, well, not nurtured seeing as her parents spent most of their time with her twins. Over the next few years Christian and Elenour spent more and more time with the twins and their attention to Tilly was slowly going down the drain. So she kept her grades up, took up more sports and even thrust herself into extra-curriculum and after school activities. She began to see less and less of her parents as they busied themselves with the twins and work and she spent a lot of time with friends, studying or doing sports. For a few years her father began to take extended "business" trips overseas for weeks at a time.

Tilly was 12 and the twins were 5 when Elenour found out that Christian's "business" trips weren't business trips at all. He was having an affair with a Miss Katherine Hall and every time he went to America for business trips it was really to see her. This sent her mother spiralling into depression and for the next year Tilly tried hard to keep the peace between her parents. When she was 13 her parents officially divorced and Christian decided he was moving to America to live with Katherine. The kids stayed with Elenour who went back to her maiden name of Watts when their father moved overseas. A few months later, Christian came back to fight for custody of the kids. Due to the fact that he was now in a "stable relationship" and Elenour was undoubtedly depressed and in an unstable state of mind, he won without much stopping him. Thus Tilly and the twins were packed up and sent to live with Katherine and Christian in America. Much to her surprise she found Katherina had two children. The youngest was a girl Tilly's age who, surprisinly, she found herself becoming close friends with. The oldest, Blake, went off to college within a few weeks of them moving in and so Tilly never really became close to him.

Christian and Katherine were pretty well off money wise and when she was 14 they begun flying Tilly to Australia to be with her mother four the first week of each month (only for weekends during the school year and for the full week during holidaus), paying for her to get there and back. Despite Katherine being nice, Tilly despises her and blames her for the fact that her family was torn apart. Really though she blames herself, believing that she wasn't good enough and that she wasn't enough to keep her parents fighting for the love they'd once had. Her father was often asked if Tilly was even his daughter as even Mia looked more like him then Tilly did and they weren't even related by blood. Tilly and Christian, who were never close to begin with, drifted further and further apart. In a way, Tilly accepting the dare to jump off the cliff and into the ocean was half because she wanted him to notice her again and care about her. When she was sent into hospital after getting herself out of the water, despite the fact that she hadn't received any major injuries, Christian visited her once but wasn't caring or kind. He noticed her but he did so by yelling and telling her that she was way out of line and that if she ever pulled such a stunt again then she'd be sent straight to boarding school.
