Occupation: Event Planner turned Social Organizer

Description: Elegant and effortlessly charming, Ellen Calloway built her reputation hosting charity galas and high-society fundraisers, often knowing how to get people in a room before they even knew they wanted to be there. She’s tactful, graceful, and carries herself with the poise expected of a Jacksonville power couple’s matriarch.

But beneath that well-maintained exterior is a kindred spirit to her youngest son. Ellen shares Jessie’s appetite for beauty, mystery, and experience—she just learned early how to channel it within the expectations placed on her. In another life, she might’ve been a dancer, a mystic, or an artist traveling the world barefoot. She sometimes looks at Jessie with a mix of admiration and wistfulness, proud of him for walking a path she once dreamed of, even if it unsettles her husband and older children.

She doesn’t always understand Jessie’s world, but she supports him quietly and fiercely, and she’s the only one who never calls his pursuits “a phase.”
