The actress herself is associated with the most successful in the series. “My two younger sisters are a lot more like April than I am, while I was more like Lesley Knope,” she said.
Here’s everything you need to know about Aubrey Plaza’s siblings — Natalie and Renee — and their relationship with their famous sister.
They grew up in Delaware
The Plaza sisters grew up in Delaware with an Irish Catholic mother and a Puerto Rican father, Bernadette Plaza and David Plaza. Aubrey’s parents were 19 years old when she was born and at that time they attended night school, per The Guard. Bernadette became a lawyer and David a financial advisor.
“My parents are very ambitious and came from nothing,” Aubrey told the paper. “So I grew up watching them work hard to get where they are today.”
In December 2021, she also shared with Delaware today that they moved a lot and lived in the suburbs of Wilmington, Pike Creek and Hockessin.
“Wilmington says it’s the place to be, and that’s really true,” Aubrey told the paper in a separate February 2012 interview. “It’s kind of cool to grow up in a small town and still be close to all the big cities.”
Aubrey’s moodiness affected Renee at school
Aubrey was also unusual as a young person, and she passed some of that eccentricity on to Renee. When the actress appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show in December 2021, her sister sat in the audience and recalled funny anecdotes.
Renee noted that they went to the same school, an all-girls Catholic school called Ursuline Academy, and Aubrey made an impression outside of the classroom.
“We’re 12 years apart, so she’d drive me to school in her bright red Mini Cooper with a football helmet on, and there would be cackles the whole way,” Renee said.
When Renee was asked if she would prefer a “normal, simple sister” or if she would be happy to have a “fun, cool, interesting human being,” she replied, “It’s probably somewhere in between.”
“I mean, since we went to the same school, she somehow disrupted my life at that school,” explained the doctoral candidate.
The White lotus star added, “I will say that Renee carried the torch.” She explained that she used to dress up in a lot of costumes at school, and so did Renee. “We were both school mascots, which wasn’t a real thing,” she said. “We just made it up.”

“I have a 17-year-old sister, Natalie, and I get a lot of material from her for my characters,” Aubrey revealed to Latina.com, per Informed. “Just the way she interacts with her friends and talks about what’s cool and what’s not cool, whether people are on Facebook or MySpace.”

Renee and Natalie have received a rather atypical assortment of gifts from their big sister over the years.
When discussing Renee with TV host Jay Leno in January 2011, Aubrey deadpanned, “It’s hard for her to send gifts. … I didn’t know what to get her for Christmas, so I mailed her a seven-foot teepee and a trampoline for the bedroom.”
“I just send her things that I know my parents don’t want her to have,” the actress added.
Aubrey revealed another of her witty gifts during a guest appearance in August 2022 Jimmy Kimmel Live!. “I actually got my sister a pole as a quarantine activity because that’s what we do in my family,” she joked. “I took her to Vegas to see the Magic Mike show for her 21st birthday, and she was drawn to the stage and had a sense of it. I encourage good hobbies for my little sister.”
The Black bear star noted, “She installed it in my dad’s basement… Honestly, he really likes it. That’s pretty much like my dad. He was more excited about it than she was. I think it’s still there.”
