FAMILY
Amanda is close with her mother, but every once in a while they find
themselves at odds over an issue. In 1994, they had a major falling
out. Amanda felt betrayed because her mother had started a
relationship with Carl Hutchins. Rachel was hurt because she felt
Amanda had betrayed her father's memory by believing the lies about
him spread by Ian Rain. They had reconciled in 1995 by the time
Amanda left town.
In 1997 Amanda decided she hated Carl, even though she had been one of his strongest supporters when she left town in 1995. Determined to drive him out of her mother's life, she masqueraded as Carl's secret lover, Hadley Prescott. Despite the pain this caused Rachel, Amanda took a savage glee in her role. Eventually remorse overcame her and she confessed all to Rachel.
Mother and daughter were on strained terms for the next few months. To make it up to her mother, Amanda investigated Scott Guthrie's role in Carl's death. She almost lost her life in the process, but it healed the rift between her and Rachel.
Children
Amanda has a daughter named Alli (full name, Alexandra Cory-Fowler), whom
she had with her ex-husband, Sam Fowler. She and Alli are close.
Strains were put on the relationship in
1994. Alli missed her father, who left town
in January 1993, and felt threatened by her mother's relationship with Grant
Harrison.
Siblings
Amanda has seven half-siblings. On her father's side, they are:
Her half-brother Sandy Cory. Amanda doesn't have much of a relationship
with Sandy because he left town in 1985, when she was still only six years old.
Her half-sister Iris Wheeler. Iris was very jealous of Amanda when
she was born because she felt that Amanda was replacing her in her
father's affections. When Iris returned to Bay City in 1988, she
plotted to break up Amanda's marriage to Sam, thereby disgracing
Amanda in their father's eyes. Amanda and Iris have come a long
way since then. They respect each other now, but could in no way be
considered sisterly.
Her half-sister Paulina Cory Carlino. Amanda and Paulina enjoy a
happy relationship.
On her mother's side:
Jamie Frame. While they had their
ups and downs, Amanda and Jamie
were very close by the time he left
town in 1993.
Matthew Cory. Matthew and Amanda have seen each other through
a lot and are very close.
Elizabeth and Cory Hutchins.
