Biography
Rhonda doesn't say much about her upbringing, only that her hometown was south of the Mason-Dixon line. She worked three jobs in high school to make it to the Ivy League. She met Andre at a first year mixer at Wharton, but she was already seeing someone at the time, someone she described as "a real Connecticut blue-blood type" snob, and believed that she would have to be like him to make it in the real world. She eventually dumped him and dated Andre, and the pair eventually married.
Personality
Driven, ambitious and ruthless
Rhonda is shown that she really cares about Andre no matter how upset she gets about not getting control over Empire. When Andre has a mental breakdown due to his disorder, she is shown to comfort him, showing she really does care.
She was formerly ill treated by her father-in-law due to her ethnicity. When Lucious assumes that she is from a wealthy background, she retorts by saying that she did three part time jobs to get into a good college.
