Claire is the daughter of Patrick and Allison.
Biography[]
In the original timeline, Claire lived with her married parents, Patrick and Allison Hargreeves. Whenever she misbehaved, her mother would use her 'I heard a rumor' powers to get her to calm down. She liked hearing tales of the Umbrella Academy and would ask for them before bedtime. One evening, when she claimed she wasn't tired and wanted yet another story, her mother used her power to make Claire feel tired. [2]
Unfortunately for their family, Patrick saw the whole thing and grew upset with Allison.
When Claire's parents separated, Patrick won custody and refused to let Claire see her mother.[3]
Due to her mother time-traveling to Dallas in 1963, she gained a stepfather in Raymond Chestnut.[4]
In the Sparrow timeline, the death of her grandmother before Allison's birth[5] resulted in Claire being erased from existence. Her father, Patrick, was instead married to another woman and had a daughter roughly Claire's age.[6]
Claire's existence was restored in the reset timeline, living with Allison and Raymond Chestnut.[7] However, Ray struggled to fit in this timeline[8] and walked out on Allison at some point over the next six years, leaving her to raise Claire as a single mother.[9]
