History[]
- "You've been so preoccupied with the kids that you've let everything slide. That's why I thought I would help by inviting your in-laws to stay. Can't hurt to have an extra set of gesticulating hands."
"What? You... You invited Mervin and Candy?" - ―Jessica Huang and Honey Ellis
At some point, Candy married Mervin Ellis and adopted his surname, becoming the stepmother of Marvin Ellis in the process, although Marvin himself was decades older than her. Much like his father, Marvin elected to marry a woman several decades younger than him, with Honey Ellis becoming Candy's stepdaughter-in-law.
After Honey got into a fight with Jessica, Jessica retaliated by inviting Candy and Mervin to help Honey take care of Maria and Liza. When Mervin shattered one of Honey's vases, Candy admonished Honey, claiming that it was not childproof, leaving Honey to awkwardly "thank" her in response.[1]
