Judith Ward's background story?

I had GF for a couple months, but did not check out The Pinnacles homes until now.

First was Judith Ward's castle, and after reading her bio I have so many questions about her. I like most of my sims to have a background story, and to add personal stuff to their homes. Most of my sims are born in-game, but the others need this help.

I found Judith's home glamorous and spacious, of course, but so many things seem lacking. It's not set to be a very personal home, I mean there are hardly any rooms for clutter and personal hobby stuff. Bio she were married several times in the past, of course they did not necessarily live at The Pinnacles but being Adult she should have some stuff. The only thing is an easel, but she has 0 painting skills. She has 3 gardening skills, but the garden is rather boring with no flowers bar the Lavendula at her entrance. With 3 skills she could easily have at least a flower bed, if not a small vegetable garden, or minimum a couple tomato pots in the kitchen...

I also miss a bar area in her huge house, perhaps there used to be a bar, but she threw it out when she divorced and was no longer interested in giving parties.

This household must of course have a butler, but it's hard to assign a bedroom and bathroom to a butler. I think such huge homes will normally have a small section for servants near the kitchen.

Most of all I wonder why there is no movie posters or awards in her office? She also should have huge self portraits on the wall, even a wall covered with framed photos of famous co-workers and directors. There's kinda no movie industry vibe in her house, I think that is a tad sad, so I'll have to assist her on that part.

I imagine she married some actor or director Ward, who founded this house in the past. He helped her into the industry, and when he died from old age, she kept his last name when marrying a new guy, who later on divorced her because she did not want to have any children ruining her career.

If you played her, what hobbies did you give her? Did her ex-husbands leave any track? Was she always an actress?

You asked, so I will share with you my vivid imagination about what I have done and how I have played at 'The Ward Den':

I added a full basement to the home (two sets of double stairs from the two large halls left and right. (Thanks to EA for their foresight in planning the house). My basement is modern, yet elegant and chic, uncluttered, and currently has a large child's room, three full upscale baths, fitness room, skills and media room (there's plenty of room left over). On the ground and second floor, I changed some of the furniture, floors & wallpapers (still gaudy but easier on the eye; I tried to stay with the original style as much as possible) and added some skill builders (musical intruments, easels, workbench, etc.) to some of the rooms. I added computers to all floors. I also added additional bathrooms. I added a butler room under the main stairwell inside the main entrance. It contains nothing but a single bed for the butler (sounds about right for Judith, doesn't it?). It is accessible by two "Door of Perception" (build mode) which look like bookshelves from the outside in keeping with the noble entrance area. (I used two doors, one right and one left, so Sims would not get stuck in there, it really is a tiny area for the butler.) I also added a sheltered garden outside (front left) with uninvasive matching pillars, floor tiles w/a glass roof.

I developed many of Judith's skills (with the exception of maxing out fitness or wellness, because I don't want her to live too long). She has even completed the 'World-Famous-Celebrity' aspiration. (I have 'aging off' for part of the time in my game.)

Here comes the fantasy story-telling: I had Judith trick a male World-Famous-Celebrity (one of my third-generation Sims) into impregnating her (his name is Hunk Erotica-Stevens). The father (Hunk) has little to do with Judith (he's a very nice man and does not want her), but he is best friends with the child, Jude Erotica Stevens-Ward (who will soon be a teenager) and looks after him. That child (Jude) is a two-star celebrity (max for children, he earned his stars via media production) and a good boy. Then, as Judith was getting close to becoming a senior citizen, I thought that the mansion should have more life in it. I had Judith invite the butler (Shingo Yamamoto, to whom I gave an age and traits makeover) to live with her (she was already in a romantic relationship with him; my Judith has an expansive view of butler duties). She had him impregnate her and they have a toddler (soon to become a child) together, Sachi Yamamoto-Ward. I developed Shingo's skills and he is now also a World-Famous-Celebrity. He is not faithful to her, nor she to him. Shingo wanted more, so he impregnated Bella Goth's young, beautiful, talented, nice granddaughter (her name is Stella Goth-Amour, and she is not a child of Mortimer Goth). Shingo then invited Stella and their young toddler (Stanley Goth Amour-Yamamoto) to move in. Stella is almost a World-Class-Celebrity, she will get her 'Star tile' soon. She writes books, songs, and she paints.

So, I've got Judith (now a young senior), Shingo & Stella (both still young adults) living in the house with an old child (Jude), an old toddler (Sachi), and a young toddler (Stanley). All three adults have won awards at the 'Starlight Accolades'. They are all friends, but sometimes Judith is intentionally mean to Stella. Shingo fulfills his romantic duties to both women, but does not enjoy to do so with Judith. Shingo secretly hopes Judith will get hit by lightning or die from hysterical laughter soon. He will probably not be offering the 'Reaper' a death flower for her life should this happen. He wants the house and to be rid of her so that he and Stella can live there happily ever after. But little does he know that in a few years' time, Stella just might throw him out (or put him back under the stairwell) in lieu of a younger, more handsome star (perhaps even Judith's first child, Jude Erotica Stevens-Ward).

My, what a tangled and bizarre life. The Sims 4 is a lot of fun, isn't it? End.
