Bio
Lacie Noelle Cooper was born a few days before Christmas to a teenage mother and a daddy who didn’t want anything to do with a baby at 17 years old. As a child, Lacie and her mother lived with her grandmother, or as she’d always been affectionately called, Nana. Lacie’s mother slowly became an alcoholic once the father of her child moved away to Atlanta and never looked back. While her mother tried her best to stay sober and take care of the firecracker little girl, Nana became Lacie’s primary parental figure for years. Eventually Lacie’s mother got her act together enough to get out on her own and move into their own home. That was the year Lacie turned seven years old and her step father came into her life. Once that man graced their doorstep there was no going back and what started out as a rocky and uncertain childhood turned into a happy home most days. Her mother still struggled but her husband kept her in check, trying to make sure Lacie and eventually her little brother too, had as good of a life as they could provide. And she did for the most part, though they didn’t have much besides what they needed, the Cooper’s were a happy little family.
When she was in elementary school, Lacie met Tudor Ivanov, who would later become her best friend and closest confidante. Once they got into middle school and high school, the two became inseparable and everyone knew that the best way to win Tud’s heart was to get Lacie’s approval first. Lacie had always been a fun and free spirited kind of girl but she really blossomed into someone who was known to cause a ruckus and bring a good time wherever she went. People around town knew that Lacie Cooper was oftentimes a trouble maker, but always meant no harm. And then everything changed the day she met him. He’d moved to Madison in tenth grade after a tragedy in his family, living with an aunt and uncle, and Lacie fell in love the first day they met. She found herself in his eyes and told herself that this was the one, forever. He was smart and kind and he lived his life spontaneously and in the moment, all the things that Lacie wanted in a partner.
By the time she was in 12th grade, Lacie had all but committed her life to this boy, but then she got the letter form University of Georgia offering her a full ride scholarship to attend in the fall and pursue her dream of becoming a nurse, just like her Nana was. But the idea of leaving her love behind was too much and he talked her into turning it down to stay with him instead. And so she did. Lacie stayed and she grew to resent him over time, the bickering and arguing beginning once they’d graduated and started transitioning into an adult relationship. And after two more years together, he finally broke her heart and left her in pieces when he decided to move to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of being an actor...and asked Lacie to stay behind in Madison.
Lacie’s never really left Madison and she’s spent her whole life feeling like she hasn’t done enough or made anything of herself. She works now at the Amber Pig as a waitress after jumping around from one job to the next without ever having much purpose. She’s the kind of girl who keeps her friends close and her enemies closer. She’s a wild child at heart with a free spirit that no one’s been able to tame in this town. She loves to have fun and all her free time is spent with friends or family that she loves, trying to remind herself that not everyone lives out their dreams and that she’s okay with it. If you want to befriend Lacie Cooper you better be ready for spontaneous road trips, late night walks by the duck pond and laughing until you can’t breathe. She’s a firecracker but if you ever need someone in your corner, she’s your girl.
