Reason for name: In the yard of his childhood home there was a Willow tree that her father spent many days under (he even got married under it) Â and when her parents found the gender of their only daughter he immediately choose the name.

Relationship with family: Her father has always supported and offered his help with Willowâs writing. Often they bond over reading and music, spending hours on the phone at least a couple times a week. Partridge also encouraged Willow to take up mixed martial arts because he wanted his kids to be able to defend themselves. Kitty was always strict on Willow and when she was younger that strained their relationship. When Willow moved out and stopped partying so much Kitty and her began to get along with the help of Partridge. Â Due to the fact that both of her siblings were born over a decade before her and neither kept in consistent contact with the family after high school Willow hardly has a relationship with them.

Happiest memory: Sitting in on her fatherâs summer classes when she was thirteen.
