During Season One, Mary Jane is first involved with Andre Daniels, although she has no knowledge of his supposedly happy marriage. After several months of seeing each other, Mary Jane learns of his marriage after she finds his wedding ring the morning after sleeping with him. That same day, Mary Jane runs into the "happily" married couple at a local shoe store. Mary Jane soon runs into Andre's wife Avery, herself a fan of Andre, at a local store and tells her about the affair. Although Mary Jane can't deal with being a married man's lover, Avery kicked Andre out after an emotional breakdown and Andre chooses to stay with Mary Jane. However, Mary Jane learns that he is, in fact, still in love with his wife and breaks up with him because she does not want to ruin the lives of his family.
