Lucas Grabeel as Toby Kennish: Bay and Daphne's older brother.

Sean Berdy as Emmett Bledsoe (regular season 1вЂ“4, recurring season 5), Daphne's best friend who is also deaf.

Bay is driven by a need to find her biological father, Angelo Sorrento, who left Regina shortly after Daphne went deaf. John learns to relate to his new-found daughter by coaching her deaf school's basketball team and employing her in the office of one of the local chain of car washes that he owns. Both mothers learn to bond with their biological daughters, while often unintentionally angering the ones they raised.

Bay discovers that she has inherited her artistic talent from Regina, and Daphne discovers she has inherited John's athletic skill and Kathryn's love of cooking. The girls sometimes struggle with their identities. This arrangement forces the girls, along with both families, to understand their differences and embrace their similarities. The Kennishes invite Daphne and Regina to their home, and after learning that Regina is struggling financially, propose that they move into their guest house with Adriana, an offer that Regina accepts. Daphne is deaf, having lost her hearing as a result of contracting meningitis at age three. It is revealed that the hospital mistakenly switched Bay at birth with Daphne, who has been raised by her single mother Regina and grandmother Adriana in the low-income neighborhood of East Riverside, Missouri.

Genetic testing confirms Bay is not the Kennishes' biological daughter.
