Fancy Crane is a fictional character on the NBC/DirecTV soap opera
Passions and is portrayed by actress Emily Harper from the May 13,
2005 episode through the series finale. Following her debut, Fancy
quickly becomes one of the soap's lead heroines â€" Harper appears in
209 out of the 254 episodes that aired in 2006, a feat surpassed only
by Lindsay Hartley (Theresa).Introduced in the May 13, 2005 episode
alongside fellow Harmonyite Noah Bennett in Las Vegas, Fancy is
quickly characterized as a vain, spoiled celebutante comparable to
Paris Hilton and is soon revealed to be one of the frequently
mentioned but heretofore unseen daughters of Julian and Ivy Crane; she
is also established to be the favorite granddaughter of billionaire
villain Alistair Crane and is later revealed to be the sole heiress to
his empire. Fancy's first year of storylines is dominated by her
off-and-on relationship with Noah and the conflict that it creates
between herself and Alistair. With the middle-class Noah, Fancy begins
her transformation from a spoiled princess into a caring, responsible
young woman, but their relationship is eventually torn apart by Noah's
lies and Alistair's machinations.Introduced in the May 13, 2005

befriends her aunt's ex-fiancé, Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald, and joins him
in his search for his son, and Fancy's cousin, Marty, furthering her
process of maturation. Luis and Fancy eventually fall in love and
become one of the program's central couples, bitterly dividing fans of
the couple and those who prefer Luis with Sheridan and/or Fancy with
Noah. Nonetheless, Fancy's storylines since mid-2006 center on her
romance with Luis and subsequent rivalry with her aunt, Sheridan, and
her sister, Pretty, for his affection. Despite numerous obstacles,
Luis and Fancy are married in the July 23, 2008, episode, and Fancy
announces her pregnancy in the series finale.Fancy was born in 1980
to Julian Linus Crane, an executive at Crane Industries and the eldest
son of ruthless multi-billionaire Alistair Ephraim Crane and his first
wife, Katherine Barrett, and Ivy Winthrop, a socialite and the
daughter of the late former Governor Harrison Winthrop and his wife,
the late Helen Revere-Mott-Beaton. Fancy is the scion of numerous
wealthy, prominent families that immigrated to North America before
the American Revolutionary War - her paternal grandfather is a
descendant of William Ephraim Crane, a magistrate who ordered Tabitha
Lenox's execution in 1693, sparking Tabitha's vendetta against the
Crane family, and her maternal grandmother was a descendant of Paul
Revere. Fancy is largely of English descent, with some French
ancestry, and was brought up, to some degree, as a Roman Catholic. Fancy Crane Top Movies & Young Movies
