Holly Harper has been William Walker’s mistress for a long time, which the family found out the day he died. She was a former Hollywood actress, and she had been William’s mistress for 20 years. The family also found out that William left her a large share in his company Ojai Foods. At first, she decided to not sell her share and actually work at Ojai Foods, which caused a rift between her and William’s children, Sarah and Tommy.

The family initially thought that Rebecca was Holly’s daughter from William. They soon found out that Rebecca is Holly’s daughter from David Caplan. Holly eventually sold her share and went into business together with Tommy to buy and open the Walker Landing winery. She and Tommy eventually helped save Ojai Foods from being bankrupt and merged it with Walker Landing Winery, making Holly CEO.
