Jackie (The Simpsons)

Jacqueline "Jackie" Bouvier is a character on "The Simpsons," the mother of Marge Simpson, Patty Bouvier, and Selma Bouvier and also the wife of Clancy Bouvier. She also had a sister named Gladys Bouvier. Like her twin daughters Patty and Selma, she is known to smoke a great deal and seems largely pessimistic and unsociable. Jacqueline appears infrequently in the series, but seems to disapprove of Marge's lifestyle and in particular her marriage to Homer (this, again, is a similarity with Patty and Selma, who share a hatred for their brother-in-law). Ironically, Jacqueline enjoyed a brief romance with Abraham Simpson, Homer's father. However, she broke up with him when she was wooed by millionaire Montgomery Burns, whom she came close to marrying before Abraham's intervention made her decide she was better off alone. A continuity error very early in the series caused her to be known briefly as Ingrid Gurney or Ingrid Bouvier. Her favorite song is "Moonlight Serenade" by Glenn Miller.
