Family Relationship Switcheroo	comment	Many family secrets are kept both in Real Life and fictionland. Orphans are one of the most popular character tropes, especially ones who turn out not to be orphans; the most famous example of this is the Luke, I Am Your Father situation wherein a thought-to-be unrelated character (often a villain, usually the Big Bad or The Dragon) turns out to be The Hero's parent. But sometimes these parents are hidden closer to home; sometimes, for some reason or other, they pose as a different relative — aunt, uncle, etc. and play a part in bringing up the child. The most typical example of the trope would be an "older sister" who is actually a mother and "parents" who are really grandparents, a situation that was frequently Truth in Television before premarital sex and childrearing out-of-wedlock became less taboo. As such, it has been known (or suspected) to be the Awful Truth behind what's passed off as a case of Absurdly Elderly Mother. (See the Real Life section for more historical detail.) In fiction set in the past, this may still be the reason for the Switcheroo. In contemporary society, the damage done by forcing the family to lie to the child and to the outside world is generally seen as much worse than an admitted out-of-wedlock birth — even if the child is being Raised by Grandparents or other relatives, they will know who their birth mother is. Contemporary Switcheroos (both in real life and in fiction) are likely to be concealing a much darker and more potentially damaging family secret, such as a pregnancy caused by rape or incest. What effect this has on the child varies from story to story, and how The Reveal happens. It should be pointed out that sometimes the focus of the story is the "older sister" and not the child, or the focus is on both equally. See also: Luke, I Am Your Father, Luke, You Are My Father, I Am Not Your Father, Mum Looks Like a Sister, Supernaturally Young Parent, and Stigmatic Pregnancy Euphemism. Compare Cain and Abel and Seth. A Family Affair that leads to a pregnancy may be hidden by a switcheroo. Contrast Is That Cute Kid Yours?, which often takes the form of an older sibling being mistaken for a parent. May overlap with Mistaken for Related if an in-law or adopted child is mistaken for a blood relative. Note that any Switcheroo is a straight use of this trope. It does not have to involve a parent in any way, and there are no inversions or gender-inversions. Also, beware of spoilers.

This is made even weirder by Ida's insistence that Christine call her "Aunt Ida". In the end, only Ida and the reader know this.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_1463a028	comment	Occasionally encountered in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. Fin's nephew, and cousin of Fin's son Ken, Darius (played by Ludacris) forces Finn's ex-wife to reveal in court that he is actually her son, a half-brother to Ken, the result of being raped by her own father (though Darius refused to believe the latter part). He was raised by his grandmother, who told him on her death bed. In another episode, they found out the adopted son of a judge was actually his biological child via his stepdaughter, who he'd raped when she was eleven. In one episode centered around a Duggar-Expy family, it's revealed that the family's youngest son is actually the child of one of the older daughters. The daughter had gotten pregnant from sexual abuse by the family pastor, but never told her parents that; the parents instead thought the daughter had been sneaking around with a boyfriend, so they covered up the "indescretion" by passing the kid off as one of their own. When they learn what actually happened, the family decides to come clean in order to help their daughter get justice.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: "Little Big Girl" has Bart (pretending to be older) date a fourteen-year-old girl who turns out to be pregnant. After being assured he can't be the father ("Wow, you are only ten") he agrees to marry her anyway to hide the truth. When the girl's mother announces that she's pregnant too, the family (with sort of creepy cheerfulness) agrees to pretend the mom has twins. It is therefore implied that The Reveal will occur some years later. In decidedly non-canon Bizarro Episode "Lisa the Boy Scout," which is framed as a series of clips from unaired Simpsons episodes kept under wraps by Disney as they're considered bad enough to kill the show, one clip depicts a dying Selma telling her sister Marge that she's her real mother.

Jade's grandfather is actually her genetic father. John's long-dead grandmother is his genetic mother and his father is actually his half-brother. Averted with Rose: Mom Lalonde IS her genetic mother. And then after the scratch, we have the original kids swapped with their genetic parents. Jane Crocker was raised by Dad, whose exact genetic relation to her is unclear. Jake was adopted by his genetic daughter, Jade, who called herself his grandmother. Dirk and Roxy refer to their genetic son and daughter respectively as older brother and mother. Time fucking shenanigans.

In the 16th volume, Maya, the aunt of the protagonists Tatsuya and Miyuki Shiba, states that Tatsuya is actually her son, which turns the brother and sister into first cousins â€‹â€‹and makes it possible for them to get married. However, further in the volume, it turns out that this is a lie invented for the purposes of Royal Inbreeding. Miyuki was actually a Designer Baby artificially created from the DNA of Tatsuya's parents; it is implied that as a result of this, she and Tatsuya are genetically closer to half-siblings anyway, which will ensure the birth of healthy children despite the Brotherâ€“Sister Incest. Maya was clearly not afraid that the DNA test would show anything unusual, and Tatsuya's real mother will be very difficult to identify since Maya was the twin of their mother and has identical DNA.

She had a damn good reason to do so, though, given that the boy's father is the presently deceased heir to the realm, meaning that he's now the sole legitimate heir to the throne. Since Septimus was assassinated, she felt that the only way to protect Octavian was via obscurity; as part of this, she suppressed his growth to make it appear that he was born too late to be Septimus' offspring. Unfortunately, this accidentally suppressed his Person of Mass Destruction-level Elemental Powers as well, leaving him as the only person in the country with absolutely no powers. He finds out the truth in Book 4, which is also when he discovers his Furycrafting powers are finally coming in.

The birth certificate forces "Aunt" Pearl to reveal that she is Rona's real mother, but Rona grew up with Pearl's childless sister and brother-in-law since Pearl wasn't married at the time.

When she was in her forties, she remarried and had a daughter named Orb at about the same time that Cedric Jr. had a daughter named Luna. Cedric Jr. gave Luna to Niobe to raise since he and his wife's jobs made them too busy. Since Orb and Luna look almost identical, they were passed off as twins. The two were later informed of their real relationship as Niobe's daughter and granddaughter when they were older.

Raven and Summer were together, with Taiyang never being in a relationship with either. He served as a sperm donor so Raven could become pregnant, giving birth to Yang. Two years later, scientific advances made Homosexual Reproduction viable, allowing Summer to get pregnant via Raven and give birth to Ruby. Raven had to flee to keep her family safe, and asked Tai and Summer to pretend Tai was the girls' father so Yang and Ruby wouldn't accidentally attract Raven's enemies. This makes Ruby and Yang half-sisters through Raven, not Taiyang.

Godfrey ends up the book's Victim of the Week when he figures out he was lied to and who Justin's actual birth father was — it's Godfrey's older half-brother Rick Tackett, making Godfrey into Justin's uncle instead. Justin's mother, who was the one lying about Justin's parentage so that he'd inherit Godfrey's millions, is the killer. In the final chapter of book 3, Charlie receives a letter from the book's now arrested murderer, in which Sarabeth Conley (nÃ©e Norris) confesses that the book's other arrested murderer, her supposed younger brother Levi, is actually her son. His father is not identified. In Book 4, while researching the Ducote family, Charlie discovers the diary of Katherine Cecelia Ducote in the archives and from it learns that she was left unable to safely have children after a miscarriage, so her husband turned to Cecelia's cousin Esther (AKA "Essie Mae"). Essie Mae thus became the mother of Miss An'gel and Miss Dickce, but they were raised by Cecelia as her own. Charlie turns the diary over to the sisters by the end of the book, allowing them to learn the truth as well while swearing never to reveal it without their say-so.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_996edf24	comment	William Moulton Marston (creator of Wonder Woman) was legally married to a woman named Elizabeth but had another â€œwifeâ€� named Olive Byrne.note The exact nature of the triangular relationship remains a mystery. Itâ€™s not clear if it was truly a three-way relationship or if it was more of a sister wife situation. The reason Elizabeth allowed Olive to live with them in the first place was that she wanted to work full time and Bill told her she could if there was another woman around to raise the kids and she needed his permission to sit for the bar exam. Bill and Elizabeth both worked while he was alive while Olive was the full-time parent to the kids. Elizabeth became the sole breadwinner after he died while Olive remained the caregiver. They lived together for forty years after Bill passed away. Elizabeth and Olive could have been platonic, they could have been lovers. No one, not even their children, quite knows for sure. As this would have been extremely scandalous at the time (he died in 1947), his kids by Olive were told that he was their uncle who adopted them and took care of their mom when their dad died. They didnâ€™t know he was their dad until they were adults, long after his death.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_9d47a2a2	comment	A Song of Ice and Fire: The Baratheon children Joffrey, Myrcella and Tommen learn that their uncle Jaime Lannister is their biological father...but still also their uncle. They reject this notion, as their mother vehemently denies it as a scandalous rumor meant to cheat them out of their inheritance. Similarly, Prince Aemon the Dragonknight, the uncle of King Daeron II Targaryen "the Good" on both sides (due to Daeron's parents being siblings, as per Targaryen tradition) may have actually been his father. However, many think it is more likely that Aemon's brother, Daeron's father King Aegon IV Targaryen "the Unworthy" began the rumors himself out of spite at his only legitimate son, as Aegon wanted to make one of his bastard children, Daemon Blackfyre, his heir instead, and did everything short of openly proclaiming him so (giving him the family sword, Blackfyre, for example, and making him and all his other bastards legitimate on his deathbed), leading to multiple generations of civil wars called the Blackfyre Rebellions with Daemon, his descendants and their supporters attempting to seize the throne. There are rumors around the Twins that Lord Walder Frey's seventh wife Annara Farring conceived her children with Black Walder, Lord Walder's great-grandson via his first wife Perra Royce. If that's the case, it means Arwyn, Wendel, Colmar, Waltyr, Elmar, and Shirei's great-nephew is actually their father, while their father is actually their great-great-grandfather. Black Walder is also rumored to have had affairs with many of the women round the Twins (such as both of his brothers' wives), even those who are also descended from Lord Walder. As if the Frey family tree weren't already bizarre and tangled enough. Historically, Corlys Velaryon claimed Addam of Hull and Alyn of Hull as his grandchildren. However, Corlys's son Laenor was in the Transparent Closet, so it's much more likely that the boys were actually Corlys's own sons. To make things more complicated, Alyn, who succeeded Corlys, married his cousin Baela Targaryen, who if the rumors were true was actually his half-niece.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_a3d5051f	comment	Soapdish includes an example as part of its parody of soap opera conventions. Though 1970s The Sun Also Sets co-stars Celeste Talbert and Jeffrey Anderson's relationship was public knowledge, they were not married when he got her pregnant. To protect her "America's sweetheart" image, she broke up with Jeffrey and had his character killed off, then had her own character written out for a few months while she spent her pregnancy at her parents' house in Iowa. She claimed that her daughter Lori was actually the daughter of her twin sister Simone and her husband, who were killed in a car accident when Lori was too young to remember them. But when first Lori and then Jeffrey are added (re-added in the latter case) to the cast of The Sun Also Sets and not only seem to be developing a romantic interest in each other off-camera but are given a kissing scene in the show, Celeste is forced to confess everything to prevent them from committing accidental incest.

Towards the end, he reveals the truth to Erik, who, in a slight subversion, says he'd known it and wondered when he would tell the truth. The same thing happens in the Yeston-Kopit musical version, which had the same writer.

As both women gave birth at very young age—Elizabeth at 17, Anna at 13—this is completely believable. Unusually, the book ends with Dolly still unaware of her true parentage.

Mitsuyo gave birth to twin girls, Mei and Misaki, but Yukiyo miscarried and fell into depression. Meanwhile, the Fujioka family was having financial problems from caring for two children, so when the twins were two, they sent Mei to the Misaki family. They presumably sent Mei because if they sent Misaki, her name would be Misaki Misaki. The switch was kept secret for several years, but their grandmother slipped up one day. The girls began to secretly spend time together, but sadly, Misaki died a few years later.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_b51c6d29	comment	A Different Outcome: Exaggerated; in order to distract the other Clans from Hollyleaf announcing she's the offspring of a WindClan warrior and the ThunderClan medicine cat, Jayfeather decides to explain in detail how all the cats in ThunderClan are actually related to each other using genetics to support his claims. Due to the Clan's Tangled Family Tree, this results in a lot of cats learning that their relatives are related to them in ways they didn't think they were. Jayfeather, Hollyleaf, and Lionblaze were raised thinking Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw were their parents and Leafpool their aunt, only to find out that Leafpool is their biological mother and Crowfeather of WindClan is their father. However, Lionblaze actually is the son of Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw because he has orange fur, which is only possible if his mother has orange fur as well; Leafpool is brown and white, but Squirrelflight is orange. Although she was raised as his daughter, Leafpool is actually Firestar's niece through his sister Princess. Leafpool figures out they aren't directly related because she has brown and white fur, while Firestar and her presumed mother Sandstorm are both orange, which means they're only capable of having orange-furred offspring. By extension, this also means Leafpool is Squirrelflight's first cousin once removed instead of her sister, Cloudtail's sister instead of his first cousin once removed, and Lionblaze's relationship to Jayfeather and Hollyleaf is second cousin instead of their brother. While not stated outright, it is heavily implied that Poppyfrost and Honeyfern's biological father is Thornclaw instead of Brackenfur. As Brackenfur and Thornclaw are brothers, this means Honeyfern and Poppyfrost's uncle is actually their dad.

When she was a teenager she secretly married a young man who has become a bishop in the present day. The emotional impact of the discovery is cushioned by the fact that the boy has known and been fond of his biological father since he was six, and the fact that he will fall heir to a second earldom and a duchy if his friends and allies (who include the bishop in question and the king himself) can only prove his parents were legally married probably doesn't hurt.

That same night they were attacked and the two baby boys were mixed up in the darkness and confusion, making it impossible to tell which baby belonged to which mother. When one of the babies died after a few days, things became even more complicated. With no way to decide which family the baby belonged to, the emperor declared that he should belong to both of them and be given both their surnames. Then it turns out Jingrui's real mother Princess Liyang was pregnant with her lover's baby and then was forced to marry Marquis Xie. She realized her husband was trying to kill her illegitimate son but had actually killed her friend's baby by accident. She perpetuated the confusion with the Zhuo family in order to protect Jingrui from the Marquis.

He is only healed of his zombification after Nancy admits to him that she is his mother, and the nanogenes recognize the literal "mother genes" and heal him and everyone else based on their new knowledge. Prior to this he'd been walking around spreading The Virus and calling out "Are You My Mummy?" (and being pretty damned creepy while doing so), hence the former trope name. In "Knock Knock", the Landlord lures people into his house so they can be fed to the woodwork filled with alien insects whom he needs to keep his ill daughter alive. When the Doctor meets the daughter, who has been turned into wood by the insects as a means to survive, he concludes that she has lived too long to be the Landlord's daughter. Indeed, she is his mother, who thinks she's his daughter because her condition acts like a form of dementia, which he uses to convince her he knows what's best. Upon learning the truth, she choses not to go along with it anymore. Spinoff Torchwood gets into the act as well. Captain Jack Harkness (who was introduced in the above Doctor Who two-parter, and who has since become immortal) ends up masquerading as his daughter's "brother" once she grows up â€” she knows, but her son (Jack's "nephew"/grandson) doesn't.

Abraham had to start calling Henry by his first name when he started looking more like an older brother than father, then a younger brother, and now Abe's ex-wife (who had never met Henry to avoid her discovering he doesn't age) assumes Henry is secretly Abraham's son.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_d59887ee	comment	Beverly Hills, 90210: Gina was introduced in the show's ninth season as Donna's cousin and caused much havoc within the group. In Season 10, the audience discovered that Donna's father had an affair with Gina's mother in the 1970s, resulting in her birth, making Gina her half-sister in addition to being her cousin. Donna's father, Dr. Martin, discovered this and was quick to accept Gina as his daughter, though he later died soon after accepting her into the Martin family.

Johanna's reason for the disguise is that "bad things happen to little girls on the streets of London"... foreshadowing the reveal that Mouse is actually Johanna's daughter, and implying that the pregnancy was the result of rape.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_e10d2c9	comment	Queens of Mewni: thanks to being started before certain revelations in Seasons 3 and 4 of Star vs. the Forces of Evil, a few canon relationships got shuffled, but it's also revealed the canon version of events were the result of one of the queens manipulating everyone's memories to try to erase her mother from history: Crescenta the Eager becomes a Decomposite Character and ancestress of most of the other canon characters, rather than Eclipsa's alleged granddaughter. Festivia the Fun not only is a legitimate Butterfly here but is Crescenta's granddaughter rather than mother. Solaria the Monster Carver, Eclipsa's mother in canon, is her great-granddaughter here. Comet is Moon's biological aunt rather than mother here: Moon's biological mother was Comet's sister, who asked Comet to adopt Moon and serve as her regent. Of course the big spoilerly switcheroo is rather than being descended from an impostor and having no relation to Eclipsa at all, Moon and Star actually are Eclipsa's descendants from her first daughter, Luna the Child. When Star found out everything she did was Based on a Great Big Lie, she had a Heroic BSoD of epic proportions.

Family Relationship Switcheroo / int_e44cb505	comment	In Hollyoaks, Peri Lomax turns out to be her "sister" Leela's daughter, raised by her grandparents Sam and Danny as their own daughter because Leela was only fourteen years old and the father, Cameron, was a dangerous criminal (whom Sam framed for murder in order to keep him away from the family). However, Peri continues to consider Sam and Danny her real parents even after the truth is revealed. There have been at least two cases on the show of cousins turning out to be siblings because of parental affairs: Rhys Ashworth is actually Josh and Hannah's half-brother, and Kathleen McQueen claims that she slept with Jacqui and Mercedes's father meaning Theresa is their sister as well as cousin (although whether she was telling the truth is questionable.)
