Bishop Lionel Jeffries

Bishop Lionel Jeffries in a recurring character in Own's Greenleaf. His first appearance was in Revival where viewers learned quickly that Lady Mae and Bishop Jeffries had an affair in the past. He has a son named Aaron Jeffries and a wife named Patrice who passed away before the Revival episode.

Conspiracy Theories/Rumors
There have been numerous theories and rumors created by fans of Greenleaf that Aaron Jeffries is not Patrice's son, but Lady Mae's son. The problem with this theory is that if he were Lady Mae's son, she would have had to hide the pregnancy from Bishop Greenleaf and give baby Aaron to Lionel.

There is another theory/rumor that Grace Greeleaf's father is really Bishop Jeffries, not Bishop Greenleaf. This would make more sense in terms of covering up the pregnancy, and would explain why Lady Mae resents Grace so much.
