History
Early Life

Megan was born on August 4, 2014, fifteen minutes after her brother Wyatt. They were probably born a month early, as Megan states that she shared a uterus with Wyatt for thirty-six weeks.

When she was younger, Megan was a quiet, chubby, awkward girl and therefore she didn't have a lot of friends. The one friend she always had was Connor. In the fifth grade, she got glasses and didn't have any friends throughout middle school except for Connor. Wyatt and Bailey often teased her.

During her freshman year of high school, a fifteen year old Megan dyed her hair purple and started dressing in a lot of black. She even had a nose piercing, which she eventually allowed to close up. Megan secretly struggled with an eating disorder for about three years. In October of her junior year Bailey found her making herself throw up. Bailey told her that she didn't need to try to change herself and so Megan decided to go back to her old self. She then moved to Los Angeles after senior year to attend UCLA and did some work at Seaside Health and Wellness under Dr. Addison Montgomery. During her time in LA she and Connor would talk on the phone regularly.
