UN: Notabarbiedol
Type of Family: Interracial/cultural
LN: Maes
H: Philippe Henri (30)
W: Lingaire (Letitia) Aminata Sosseh (26)
Location: London, England
Background: Philippe was born in Paris, France to a Belgian-Dutch father and a French mother. Raised very wealthy due to his father's success in international business and his mother's aristocratic family, Philippe attended elite private schools (including Institut Le Rosey, the most expensive priavte school in the world) and studied medicine at Oxford. Instead of doing a traditional residency, Philippe decided to join Doctors Without Borders and was assigned to a remote village in Mauretania. It was there that he met his future wife.
Lingaire had a very different childhood than her husband's. The illicit lovechild of the French diplomat to Senegal and a beautiful Wolof government secretary, Lingaire was raised by her mother Aminata in the capital city of Dakar. Though he was uninvolved in Lingaire's day to day life, he did pay to send her to Kamuzu Academy, a brand new boarding school in Malawi. At first Lingaire was miserable to be so far away from home, but she eventually excelled in languages and was offered a full scholarship to Cairo University, where she studied romance languages. Right after college she was offered a job working as a translator for Doctors Without Borders, and she and Philippe happened to both be stationed in Mauretania, where they tended to the inhabitants of the remote Wolof Village. They quickly fell head over heels in love, and were married four years later. They now live in London, where Lingaire (who goes by Leticia to everyone other than family) works as a corporate translator and Philippe is a pediatric infectious disease specialist at the Great Ormond Street Hospital.
