Hylla El-Farouq

Hylla El-Farouq Solace Stark (formerly McBride) is the ex-wife of Brigadier McBride, wife of Tony Stark and biological mother of Zoe, Sage and Poppy Calligaris. She also didn't have the best relationship with older sister Reyna growing up. When Hylla was in high school, she met Stark, had a long-term relationship with him and became pregnant with all three of his children. Hylla absconded days after Poppy's birth and soon after, her sister Reyna and brother-in-law Bruno Calligaris adopted all three of her children which led her to become known as "Aunt Hylla", hoping one day she'll meet her daughters. Many years later, Hylla met Brigadier McBride. At first, she didn't like him, but developed a physical relationship and eventually married him. While married to him, Hylla left him due to his abuse he inflicted on her and later settled in Atlanta where she became an escort and exotic dancer.
