Anna Bisou-Bielo

One of Wendy's most shocking and heartfelt moments with Anna was the day Wendy had a nearly fatal car accident with her mother and brother in the car. That very same night, was the night Anna's husband Tony was proposing. Despite proposal plans, Tony dropped the plans, and Anna and Tony were the first to rush to the hospital and emotionally support the family through a tumultuous time period. Anna is a supermom to two boys Wendy is overprotective of as an "Auntie." Wendy's dream is to become their second favorite aunt (second to Hazel, Anna's sister).
