Quote1
Benjamin Katz was six years old. And there were a lot of things he didn't understand. He wasn't sure why the woman you call mommy isn't always your mother. Or how the man who was always there for him could suddenly be taken away. Or why you could go for a ride and never come back home. Yes, there were a lot of things Benjamin Katz couldn't understand, and no one seemed in a hurry to explain them.

Mary Alice Young

Benjamin Tyson Van de Kamp (formerly Katz and Hodge) is Bree's grandson and the son of Danielle and Austin McCann. It is likely that Benjamin knows about his biological father because he met his great-aunt Edie Austin's aunt.
