Background: Delilah graduated from West Point, where she met her Norman. After serving her minimum commitment, she gave up her career aspirations in order to support her husband while he served in the Army, and later in his bid for Seattle mayor.
Beneath the Surface: To the outside world, Delilah stands by her man and does everything in her power to project the image of the perfect housewife. In reality, she’s just as ambitious as her husband and is itching for a chance to assume her own leadership role. She lives in denial about her husband’s sexuality, though she’s well aware of his hair-trigger temper and lives in fear of setting him off.
Appears in: Vengeance, Retribution, Reckoning
Resisting temptation to post lyrics to a certain song … I’ll just say the powder keg that is Delilah is one of the more interesting characters in the Shephardverse … not only has she sacrificed much for a partner who is clearly not upholding his end of the bargain … her overwhelming amount of repressed feelings are just ripe for interesting developments. How true is her life to that of many we all know … showing what is expected to others yet being someone different on the inside. Tick tock tick tock …
