[edit] History

John Rowland was employed by Carlos and Gabrielle Solis as a gardener. Gabrielle, having become bored with her husband never being with her, decided to seduce her teenage gardener. The pair embarked on an illicit affair which encountered several difficulties.

The most prolific of these difficulties including Gabrielle's mother in law, Juanita. However, Juanita was hit by a car driven by Andrew Van De Kamp after discovering the affair. The hit and run placed Juanita into a coma. John became overwhelmed with guilt and went to confession. However, he became entranced once again by Gabrielle and may have conceived her unborn child. He found out about this and started "freaking out". He demanded to see Mr. Solis but Gabrielle refused.

Instead, John arrived at Carlos' gay hate trial and told him "he got the wrong guys". Carlos went mad and attempted to attack John but it looked like he was attacking Justin - the gay person he beat up previously. After what happened at the court Gabrielle breaks up with him.

So John goes and look for new housewives to be with. He is currently doing well, very rich and very successful in his gardening company. He is engaged to the daughter of the Sinclair Hotel owner, Tammy Sinclair.
