I had taken a long career break to have children, but had marketing experience. With all three children gone, it was a welcome distraction from the empty nest. At first, I was very cautious about working with Sophie. I made a conscious effort to back off, to encourage Sophie to believe in herself. Thankfully, we agree on most issues. We are careful to have mother and daughter time, such as shopping or gallery visits.
At first, I admit, I worried about whether anyone would take a mother-daughter team seriously. I feel so lucky that we work well as a team. We can be really honest with each other. Rosalind Miller, 59, is the founder of Rosalind Miller Cakes.
Her business partner is her only daughter, Yasmine Ziadlourad, They live separately in South-East London. Rosalind pictured right with her daughter Yasmine revealed they set up ground rules to adjust with working together. Rosalind says: Some friends are envious that I spend so much time with my daughter, but others admit they could never work with theirs.
Yasmine and I work so well as a team, but there were teething problems. If we reach an impasse, we consult with my sister, Julie, to work things out. One day, I accidentally smashed a bouquet of sugar flowers just before they were due to be delivered and Mum was really annoyed. Shortly after that, we decided to draw up the manifesto and things improved. One of the main benefits of working with Mum is that I can be very frank. If she shows me a design and I think the colour is weird, I can tell her.
For example, I recently pushed for us to launch a new ready-to-order range, Confection, as well as our custom-made cakes. For more details - Hellograds.

That is why I think it would be just better to have her have had a terrible dream and she is really the same young girl who came on to the show with Liz her mother, Bill her father and Snapper and Greg her brothers. I know they wanted to take the Foster family out of the circle but still wanted Jill from a core family. I liked it better with her mother in England with both brothers and their families. I think they made one mistake and kept making it worst. Thank you for explaining that. And your right I preferred her original back story as a Foster.
Guess they ran out of ideas and decided to hack out this one. Where does Cane fit into this?? I stopped watching few years back and when I came back to it I never figured that out.
Something to do with Philip II. I remember seeing that he came back to tell Nina he was gay. Does anyone remember David Kimball. Does anyone else remember that? Who was he? Jack came to her rescue. Sven escaped to Mexico, but Jack was cleared of all charges. Phillip turned to drinking. He fought his alcoholism with help from both Katherine and Jill, along with Christine Blair.
His drinking led him to engage in a one night stand with Nina Webster. Phillip later died in a car crash while he was driving under the influence or so it was believed at the time. As part of one of her more devious schemes, Jill hired a con man named Brian Romalotti the father of Danny Romalotti and Gina Roma whom she dressed up as a wealthy man and rechristened " Rex Sterling ". Jill's plan backfired, though, because Katherine Chancellor and Rex eventually fell in love for real.
Rex Sterling soon got annoyed by Katherine Chancellor 's behavior. However, Katherine was gone--replaced by her look-a-like Marge Cotroke. Jill convinced Rex to divorce Katherine and marry her, which he did in However, Jill began seeing John Abbott again and Katherine returned. Katherine and Rex remarried. Unfortunately, their romance ended tragically when Rex spooked a prowler in the middle of the night and was subsequently shot.
Soon after, Jill began an affair with Victor Newman and Jill assumed she would certainly be the next Mrs. Hapless Jill, no more than shared her elation at the prospect with Jack Abbott , than Victor let her know that she was just a fling and he had no real intentions where she was concerned. Mortified, Jill quickly found her way back into John's heart and they remarried much to his children's dismay.
Jill wanted to have a baby though John felt he was too old. But Jill managed to get pregnant before John got a secret vasectomy. When he discovered she was already pregnant, he insisted she have an abortion but Jill couldn't do it. John did wonder if the baby, named Billy Abbott , might actually be Victor's, since he knew they had been together earlier. Jill's affair with Jed Sanders due to John's impotence caused their second divorce which resulted a bitter custody battle over Billy and a stroke for John.
After years of torment from Katherine, Jill turned the tables on her in July when she discovered a letter penned by the deceased Phillip Chancellor II naming Jill as the sole owner of the Chancellor Estate.
Jill evicted Katherine who then found a legal loophole which resulted in Katherine and Jill being forced to live at the Estate together. He quickly developed a relationship with the much older Jill. Jill was curious about his intentions but gave in and allowed him to move into the Chancellor Estate.
Soon after, though, Sean moved away to New York City. Katherine Chancellor allowed ex-con Larry Warton to move in and do some work around the house.
Jill quickly began an affair with him but wanted to keep it a secret because Larry was "beneath her". However, Katherine found out and attempted to confront Jill about it. Jill continued to deny it and even insulted Larry. An angry Larry walked in on a Jabot meeting and emptied a box of Jill's sex toys onto the table.
In , Liz Foster was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Liz admitted to Jill that she was adopted and that Charlotte Ramsey who years later it was discovered had lied to get revenge on Katherine had provided proof that Katherine was her birth mother. Katherine was shocked when she saw Charlotte back in Genoa City a short time later but still didn't piece together her connection with Jill. John Abbott , also a former schoolmate, recognized Charlotte.
He eventually tricked Katherine into revealing that Charlotte had an abortion when she was younger which left her unable to carry children. With the truth about her barrenness about to surface, Charlotte went to the Chancellor Estate and confronted Katherine on May 20, Charlotte then told Kay that Jill was her biological daughter. In addition to being mortified to learn that she was the daughter of her sworn enemy, this revelation presented another crisis for Jill.
For years, her son, Billy Abbott, and Katherine's granddaughter, Mackenzie Browning , had been in love in a passionate but platonic relationship. However, the supposed mother-daughter connection between Katherine and Jill would mean that Mackenzie and Billy were first cousins. Unaware that they were supposedly blood relatives, the young couple was married while a paralyzed Katherine could do nothing but watch. A horrified Jill and John Abbott tried to stop the wedding but they were too late.
Eventually, Jill informed the newlyweds of the shocking news before the marriage was consummated. Heartbroken, Billy and Mackenzie had their union annulled and the two separately left town. Jill helped Katherine to recover and the two eventually resolved their differences. In early , Katherine Chancellor began to have disturbing nightmares involving a baby. She soon determined that they were actually fragments of a repressed memory. Eventually Katherine recalled that years ago--unable to accept the fact that Jill had given birth to a child with her deceased husband Phillip Chancellor II --she kidnapped the baby and gave him to a woman named Violet Montgomery whom she met in a bar.
Violet was to place the child with a different family. Her true biological son was revealed to be Cane Ashby , an Australian national whose visa had expired and who was fighting deportation. Cane soon formed a strong bond with Jill and Katherine. Jill was briefly reunited with the man she believed was her birth father, Judge Arthur Hendricks , but he soon left town after suspicions about his past planted too many seeds of distrust.
Jill began a romantic relationship with William Bardwell , the District Attorney, who had just inherited a fortune from his late uncle.
Gloria Abbott , who wanted Will for his money, drugged Ji Min Kim and Jill with libido pills and arranged for William to walk in on them. A broken-hearted William eventually married Gloria.
Jill and Ji Min developed genuine feelings for each other. Katherine was furious with Jill upon learning that her daughter was planning on eloping with Ji Min. She offered Ji Min a bribe not to marry her daughter but Ji Min declined. The investigation proved that David Chow murdered him to pay off some of his gambling debts associated with the mob. Jill was devastated. Jill felt that Katherine was constantly looking over her shoulder and second-guessing her decisions. In November , Katherine Chancellor was believed to have died in a car crash.
However, the true victim was her look-a-like Marge Cotroke. In late December , Katherine finally regained enough memories to realize she was the real Katherine Chancellor, not Marge Cotroke. She convinced Patrick Murphy to take her to the Chancellor Estate. He did and, minutes after she arrived, Jill also arrived and was obviously shocked to see her.
After the shock wore off, however, Jill was convinced that Katherine was Marge seeing as Jill remembered Marge from years ago. Katherine, having little memory, couldn't disprove Jill's theory and was arrested for both trespassing and fraud.
On March 12, , Kay had more people than just Amber Moore and Murphy believing in her true identity; she also has Nikki Newman who finally believed her. Katherine left Genoa City once again when the second DNA tests came in saying she and Jill were not mother and daughter. In return for the Jabot Cosmetics shares which Victor Newman purchased from Gloria, Jill allowed the corpse buried in Katherine's grave to be exhumed and it was subjected to a third DNA test.
Thus, Katherine's claim about her true identity was bolstered and it was proven conclusively that Katherine and Jill were not biological mother and daughter after all.
