I do not think Gael is actually her Uncle by blood relation, more he is a Godfather; often the word Uncle is used to refer to a close friend of the family who grew up close to their children; I for example have an Uncle Bill, but he bears no family ties to me whatsoever. He's just called uncle because he's as close as one and I think the same is true of Gael.
