Background

Robert Anderson Jr. Parents Julie Olson and Bob Anderson.

Julie's marriage to Bob wasn't up to par with the exciting life she was living, and by 1975 Julie decided to leave Bob. Julie was pregnant with Bob's child when she decided to divorce him. Julie thought she might have a chance with Doug Williams, but Doug knew she was with child and told her he didn't love her and to return to Bob.

Julie moved into Doug's guest room, and eventually began to rebuild her relationship with her son David Banning. However David's girlfriend Brooke Hamilton grew jealous of their relationships and began spreading lies that Julie was pregnant with Doug's child and not Bob's. Brooke's lies worked, and David became disgusted with his mother. After having a huge argument with Julie, David took Doug's car and speed off, eventually driving off of a bridge. When no body was found David was pronounced dead, and a memorial service was held for him.

Near the end of 1975 Julie would receive news from Paul Grant that David was alive and staying with his family. Julie was in such a rush to see David she tripped down some stairs and gave birth to a stillborn son (the baby was thought of as Robert Anderson, Jr.)
