[edit] Biography
Bianca Montgomery is the daughter of Erica Kane and the late Travis Montgomery. She was born in Pine Valley, Pennsylvania in 1984. She is well beloved in the community and was well cared for by her famous mother. During the course of the show, Bianca has suffered from Reyes Syndrome (when she was a baby); and Anorexia Nervosa. Her sweet nature comes from her late grandmother, Mona; and sometimes goes by the nickname, "Binks". Lifeline Born February 8th, 1988 Birthday changed to February 9th, 1984 [Jan 31st, 2002]
Although she is kind hearted, Bianca will not take any nonsense from anyone. These traits she gained from both her mother and her grandmother.
In 2000 after a teenage Bianca returned from rehab for her eating disorder, she stunned her mother by revealing she was a lesbian and she had a relationship with a girl in rehab named Sarah. Sarah's family disapproved and Sarah ended up getting engaged to a man, despite still being in love with Bianca, ending the girls' relationship.
Bianca's second girlfriend was Mary-Frances "Frankie" Stone. Frankie came to Pine Valley to help out her Aunt Vanessa, aka "Proteus," in a plot to distract Bianca. Frankie, however, developed true feelings for Bianca and was murdered by one of Vanessa's henchmen.
Soon after, Frankie's identical twin sister Mary-Margaret, or Maggie Stone, arrived in Pine Valley. The two shared an up and down relationship where eventually both girls seemed to mutually be interested in one another. They never could get together though. Bianca was interested in Maggie but Maggie stated she was straight, despite their close dynamic. Later on, Maggie was interested in Bianca but Bianca was in a relationship with Lena by then.
Bianca met Polish-born Lena Kundera at Enchantment Cosmetics where Bianca worked for her mother, Erica Kane. Lena, a bisexual and a spy for rival Michael Cambias, began dating Bianca and the two fell in love. They experienced ups and downs when Lena's original intentions were revealed, but the two managed to stay together. When the two women shared a kiss, chaste by soap standards, it was first time two women kissed romantically on a daytime soap opera.
After Bianca was raped by Michael Cambias, Bianca pushed Lena away. Bianca kept her rape a closely-guarded secret, telling only Maggie at first. Eventually the entire town of Pine Valley learned of the rape which encouraged Bianca to get closer to her mother, Erica. During a normal doctor's physical, it was discovered that Michael's rape of Bianca had left Bianca pregnant. Bianca decided to keep the child. The pregnancy helped bond Bianca with her older sister, Kendall Hart.
Michael was charged with rape but acquitted. During that same time, Kendall had announced she had married her sister's rapist, and was pregnant with his baby. This so-called "announcement" however, was a ruse, planned by Dr. David Hayward and Kendall, which was meant to fool Erica, and to protect Bianca. But Michael was later found murdered. It was eventually discovered that Bianca, herself, had shot him, and blocked it out of her memory.
Bianca gave birth to a daughter, whom she named Miranda. Miranda, because she loved the name, and her middle name, Mona, after her maternal grandmother. The child was later thought to have died in a plane crash, but in reality, she had been kidnapped by Bianca's friend, Babe's conniving former husband, Paul Cramer, and renamed Bess. Bianca eventually discovered that Bess was Miranda, her daughter, but during an attempt to steal the child back Bianca was pushed from a second story balcony by JR and wound up in a coma. Bianca has never remembered how she fell. Miranda was recovered and brought to Bianca's hospital room and Bianca woke up from her coma. To this day, she and JR are enemies.
Lena had to go back to Poland to take care of her mother and the two eventually broke up. Bianca and Maggie's confusing relationship became an issue again. Though the two women's relationship wasn't exactly made clear, Bianca, baby Miranda, and Maggie, went to Paris together so Bianca could head up the international division of Cambias Industries, which Enchantment now owned. At the present time, Bianca, Maggie and Miranda live in Paris off-screen where she works for Cambias Industries' and is the proxy shareholder of her daughter's shares, since Miranda is a Cambias by blood.
She recently returned to Pine Valley with Miranda, without Maggie, who cheated on her in Paris. She is getting to know her new older half-brother, Josh Madden. Although he did try to get Bianca to interfere for him to get between JR and Babe, she refused; but yet, Josh and Bianca get along very well. In fact, she had confided in Josh that Maggie had been cheating on her while they were living in Paris.
