Haughty socialite Rebecca Hotchkiss is the scheming mother of Gwen Hotchkiss. Rebecca believes that power, money, and social position are the most important things in the world.
As a result, she tricked her lover, Julian Crane, into proposing to her as soon as he filed for divorce from Ivy. Rebecca's dreams came true when she became Mrs. Julian Crane. Unfortunately, the vixen then discovered that Julian's annulment to Theresa was null and void—which meant Rebecca had nothing!
Ever determined, Rebecca found out about Julian's past with Eve and blackmailed him into marrying her. In exchange for her help in keeping Eve out of prison, she forced Julian to sign papers vowing to never divorce her. Eventually, however, Rebecca agreed to divorce Julian.
