text: days of our lives question? where did max come from, i mean, who are his parents?  if max is a brady and chelsea is a brady (by blood anyway), aren't they related?  yet they are a couple. technically, chelsea isn't a brady. beau's biological father is victor kyriacos. since sean brady (caroline's husband) raised him and he thought for years that sean was his dad he simply continue to use brady as his last name.  according to a character bio.. it said that max and frankie came to salem in 1987 to escape an abusive father. both were adopted by caroline and sean brady.
