Biography

Between her second and third birthday her parents split, with Tahira having full custody of the two of them. Growing up she was close to her adoptive cousins, Maria and Antonia, and befriend Robin Likhachyova as a young child, though the two weren't as close as Alex was to Robin. She was closer to Maria, and Amelie de Kessel, the daughter of her mother's college friend, Louis de Kessel. When Alex and Tahira move down to Harrisburg, Celina stays up in Manhatten with her adoptive aunt Ofelia.
