elena deluca made herself known the moment she came into the world: kicking and screaming. attention was a must at a young age, realizing early on that a simple sob into the night would have someone cradling her and providing her with their sole attention and focus.

she was shielded from the limelight until the age of seventeen; homeschooled but always on contract to not be filmed. despite her mother always teaching her that power and money were the two most important things in life, she was sheltered from what that would come with until old enough to understand the consequences. she was eighteen when she first made an appearance on real housewives, lingering in the back of scenes or having very few lines made into the show while hanging off her mothers arm.

unlike most, she was a mama's girl. always seen with her mom and finding comfort from the woman who raised her. not to say she wouldn't threaten people with calling up her father, but her relationship and attachment to her mother was stronger. one could argue it was a toxic dynamic, with her mother feeding into the miniscule insecurities that elena would posses, and encouraging her to simply change them rather than accept them.

elena's twin was a saving grace, one of the small handful of people that knew elena inside and out (perhaps better than elena knew herself). a dependency that ran deep but encouragement to be their own person. elena wasn't babied by her twin, rather encouraged and redirected into the right lane.

it wasn't long before viewers realized that elena was made for reality television. with her quick remarks, facial expressions and ability to get herself involved in every dramatic scene possible, she became a fan favourite, despite being in the background. despite this, elena turned down multiple options for appearances, not wanting to be seen or known as someone desperate enough to accept anything handed to her.

a bartender at one of the local bars, owner a friend of her mother's: it wasn't long before she was before the camera again. her life being attached to television for long periods of time, having to recreate scenes for the upmost dramatics and causing intense exhaustion and mental decrease.

a confident woman, someone that holds her head up high, crumbled behind the scenes. having to see the online comments about her reactions, about her physical appearance, about her attitude. it felt as though nothing was good enough for those around her; positives were ignored, and alcohol became the escape.

leaving the show was the best choice provided, especially with the uproar that followed her departure. it wasn't long before the deals began to flow in. elena made a name for herself, no longer the daughter of the real housewives vivian deluca, she was a household name in itself. starring on dancing with the stars and even hosting a season of love island (truthfully, she just wanted the free trip to fiji).
