It's mentioned that the two got married at a church where they were the only attendees. While George at least had a wealthy family and supportive friends, Misuzu had none of that as she raised Lynn alone as a single mother for five years.

Then, the Russell-Waverly family begin losing their wealth because the costs of the Viscount estate are too much for Madeleine - while Lynn and Sarah are married at this point and don't live with her anymore, Charles isn't so lucky and has to endure Madeleine frequently yelling at him to vent her frustration. Hell, Charles saying something as innocent as him liking horses causes Madeleine to get angry and yell at him.]]

* Sarah. She's an IllGirl and only had one friend in her whole life before Lynn showed up, being Arthur. George neglects her because of his workload leading her to be be bitter. As soon as Lynn shows up, she unintentionally takes away everyone's attention from her, making Sarah all the more insecure. She starts fearing that even Arthur likes Lynn more than her. [[spoiler: Then, when the Marble Mansion is sold off, Sarah is allowed to reside at Duke Warbawn's castle...who demeans her for not being a "proper heir" because of her weak consitution and says that George should get married to Madeleine "to produce a proper heir".]] At one point, Sarah's health is so bad she has to be taken to a sanitorium.
* Lynn. Her mother is killed when she's a child, and she finds out when Madeleine crudely tells it to her face. Sarah rejects her because she's still coping with her own trauma of being neglected. At home, George is rarely present, and Madeleine, Mary and Thomas all terrorize her in different ways - Madeleine by being the worst WickedStepmother she can be, Mary by finding out what hurts Lynn mentally and using it to harm her, and Thomas by physically harming and attacking her and Edward. Thomas and Mary make Lynn cry ''moments'' after meeting them. At school, Lynn is hated because she's TheAce and a star student, making the other students that want to win the Lady's Crest jealous - as a result Vivian is always mean to her and [[spoiler: Mary tries to blackmail her into staying out, by holding her familial debt over her head]].
* Misuzu was abandoned by her own parents for marrying George, never accepted by George's family, and when she finally tries to reunite with her husband, she's killed off in a car accident. The scene where she stares in shock at the oncoming truck is absolutely ''chilling''.
*In the first series, there's a maid named Jill who, after witnessing Thomas and Mary heap mountains of abuse on Lynn, finally snaps and slaps Thomas. While it's understandable why Madeleine would be upset (since Thomas is a child and Jill is much older), it doesn't take away from the fact that Thomas repeatedly bullied Lynn, and in that specific instance, implied it was her fault Misuzu died in a car crash.
*Also in the first series, Madeleine fires Tom the Gardener, who had been a surrogate father figure to Lynn, because he found evidence that incriminated Thomas in Edward's injury. Lynn sorely misses him and it plays a role in her choice to [[spoiler: run away]].

* Andrews watched his mother die when he was a little filly. Because he had impeccable riding skills, he was taken in by Vivian Spencer...who proceeded to whip and abuse him to keep him loyal and dedicated to her. And when Vivian takes a liking to another horse, she orders that Andrew be put to sleep.

*Mary's cat Prince. He lives in fear of Thomas attacking him with his BB gun. Mary was initially protective to him, but started being abusive to him as well. Of course, Prince was mean to Lynn a few times (like purposely muddying her dress) but he's a cat, it's not like he knows any better (though some episodes imply he has human-level intelligence and understands humans). Lynn takes a shine to him and adopts him, and he becomes a nicer kitty.
* [[spoiler: Sophie from the second series is initially quite unlikeable as she always tries to wreck Lynn's already-unpopular reputation in front of Isabelle, but becomes increasingly sympathetic as the story goes on. When Sophie's alone, she's always crying because of her [[VileVillainSaccharineShow mother]]'s abuse.]]
