Backstory: A former Irish architect who lost her studio during the economic crisis, Marianne moved to England searching for new career opportunities. She was lucky, and soon started working for many upper-class British families as an interior designer. She originally came from a very poor Catholic family, and studied under a scholarship at a prestigious & exclusive all-girls school. Because she was poor, she had to endure mockery and insecurity from her wealthy classmates, and had to struggle on her way up the social ladder. Even as a grown woman, her fear of being ridiculed by the highborn ladies never faded. After all, even though she walks among the elite, she knows she'll never be one of them
