Joy Struthers

Joy Struthers (née Montgomery) is the daughter of SSA David Rossi, who appeared in Season Ten of Criminal Minds.

Background
Joy was born as a result of the short-lived marriage between Rossi and Hayden, a French diplomat. The two had divorced prior to her birth because of the demands of their respective jobs, with Rossi being unaware of Hayden's pregnancy at the time. As a result, Hayden remarried, and after Joy was born, she believed that her stepfather was her biological father. As an adult, she moved to San Francisco, California, and became a true crime writer, much like her biological father. She wrote at least two books, one of which was about the Zodiac Killer, and another that tanked in sales. Joy also married an Italian man and had a son with him, named Kai. In 2014, when her stepfather came down with cancer, he confessed the truth about her real lineage before dying. As a result, Joy confronted Hayden about it, subsequently learning that her father was indeed Rossi.
