I'd like to think that Francene, I think that was her name, stayed a bit longer. Maybe she took Iris, instead of having Wally with her. Or they both stayed with Joe, and the falling out between the parents tore Iris and Joe apart.

Ultimately, I think the reasoning behind it has to do with her mother somehow.
