Ivy, a character in the America's Most Eligible series, is one of the contestants of America's Most Eligible. She made her first appearance in Book 1, Chapter 2.
Appearance
Ivy has long strawberry blonde hair, brown eyes and slightly tan skin. She wears a black sequinned gown when first introduced. Her casual look consists of a white top with flower prints, red pants and a gold necklace.
Personality
Initially, Ivy comes off as a sweet and humble person and friendly if you defend Teagan. As a debutante, she has learned to deal with situations with grace and composure. Some contestants, like Beautiful Contestant, are suspicious that her kind personality is a facade, which is later revealed to be true.
In Chapter 16, it is revealed that she eliminated Your Character, which demonstrated her cunning and deceitfulness. She manipulated Derek into a showmance, knowing he would break up with her and get blamed, making her appear to be sweet and helpless. She threw herself overboard on the boating date for attention, and she knew Lina would overhear her talking to Omar and start rumors about you sleeping with the producers.
Ivy is also insensitive towards you even if your relationship with her is high. If you took her to the Dream Suite in Chapter 10, she admits that she did it for her own fun and not for you. However, if you keep your high relationship status with her, she eventually apologizes for betraying you. She says that she has a soft spot for you, and though she likes you, she likes winning more.

Relationships
Your Character
If you choose to advise Han about eliminating Ivy, Your Character's reasoning will be how even though she came last in the challenge, she might be steep competition later on. Thus, it would be best to get her out as soon as possible. If Your Character decides to watch the confessionals in Chapter 10, you find that Ivy finds you tough to read, even though you are one of the friendlier contestants. If you decide to say goodbye to her in Chapter 11 after your elimination, she appears to be quite distraught. She vows to fight for the both of you. In addition, if you ask her who she thinks was behind you getting eliminated, she'll say she thinks it was Zeke. She believes he made some sort of secret deal with one of the other contestants to stay. In Chapter 16, it is revealed that she eliminated you.
In the end, if her relationship with you is low, she reveals how she's not above using people to get what she wants and is willing to use others as stepping stones for her own success. If her relationship with you is high, she will show genuine remorse for her behavior and tell you that she does care about you, but at the end of the day she cares about winning more. If she becomes the most eligible and you congratulate her, she is shown to be surprised and appreciative of your support. If she is partnered with Vince in Chapter 14 of All-Stars, you have the option to call her out and expose every bad thing she's done throughout the series (premium option).
In the All Stars season, she tries to remain polite and nice to you despite your feelings towards her. In Chapter 8, she talks to you in private with a proposition. If you blow the cycling challenge and purposely end up in the bottom four with Slater, she will use her Audience Vote perk and save you and another contestant of your choosing from the other team, thereby getting rid of Slater, who she thinks is dangerous. If however you decide to "win" the challenge, Ivy and her partner, Handsome Stranger, will end up in the bottom four and she will not be able to eliminate Slater. If she is partnered with Vince in Chapter 14, you have the option to call both of them out and expose their dirty secrets (premium option).
Derek Taylor
In Season 10, Derek and Ivy stage a showmance for the cameras. When they break up, Ivy plays the victim. Even though she betrays you and admits to cheating during the season, he tells you that he believes he has a better insight towards her. In the All Stars season, he becomes her first partner and they build a sandcastle replica of Magic Funland's castle. Carson finds it whimsical and if you do not win the challenge with Vince, Derek and Ivy win it.
Handsome Stranger
In Season 10, Handsome Stranger upsets her plans for eliminating you a second time when he quits the show on live television. Because of this and how he quit in Season 9, she calls him a "quitter" in the All Stars season, goading him in private as well as during their elimination pleas when their laser tag scores placed them in the bottom four. He becomes her second partner in the All Stars season. Because Derek uses his Audience Vote perk to save the bottom four, Handsome Stranger is partnered with Ivy for the cycling challenge. If you purposely lose, he and Ivy place third and are safe from the bottom four. If you do not take Ivy's proposition, they place fourth and are put in the bottom four with Eden/Heath and Bianca/Yvette.
Carson Stewart
In Book 1, Chapter 20, she even reveals that she managed to get on the show because she slept with Carson after meeting him during casting.
Vince
In the All Stars season, Vince suggests they form an alliance. Whether or not Ivy agrees, they both attempt to smear your reputation on the snorkeling date in front of the cameras. If you went with Ivy's plan to get rid of Slater, Ivy becomes Vince's partner. When they bake a pie using Vince's grandmother's recipe, they get last place and are put in the bottom four with Beautiful Contestant and Derek. No matter how you vote and convince the Jury to vote, Vince and Ivy will be deemed ineligible during eliminations and both vow to sway the jury against you.
In the Wedding Edition season, Vince and Ivy submit their names as a couple to be considered as contestants. They are voted back by a secret, select group of AME fans to compete against you and your fiance/e for a dream wedding and honeymoon. Throughout the season, Vince railroads Ivy, trying to speak for her as well as speaking over her and interrupting her in front of the cameras, crew, and audience. Even when she tells him details about herself (for example, her favorite dessert is fruitcake), he waves it off and doesn't take her seriously.
Beautiful Contestant
Ivy is shown to have a distaste for Beautiful Contestant almost upon their first meeting. Ivy finds Beautiful Contestant to be brusque and rude. In turn, Beautiful Contestant considers Ivy to be deceptive before realizing Ivy eliminated Your Character.
