Biography

Orson Hodge was born on June 28, 1964. He grew up in a deeply religious family, under the control of his overbearing mother, Gloria, and a promiscuous father, Edwin. At age five, his mother took him to get circumcised, telling him they were going for ice cream.

At sixteen, his father had an affair, causing a scandal at the church. Edwin then became an alcoholic. One evening, Gloria asked Orson to watch over his father, but Orson went out with friends. When he returned, he found that his father had committed . His mother blamed him, plunging Orson into a severe depression that led him to spend the rest of his teenage years in a psychiatric hospital.

Later, he married Alma, a woman his mother encouraged, but he never loved her. He had an affair with Monique Pollier, and when Alma found out, she faked her own death to punish him. Orson then met Bree Van de Kamp. He helped her escape from the psychiatric hospital where she was institutionalized, and they married six months later, convinced they were made for each other.

Their marriage, initially harmonious, gradually descended into dysfunction: lies, blackmail, infidelity, and eventually Orson's paralysis after a plane crash. After their divorce, Orson became the main antagonist of season 8, using his knowledge to blackmail Bree and her friends.
