Character Information
|
Hortense Simpson first appeared when Bart briefly died. Hortense is said to have died later in the series though, suggesting that the events happened the other way round or that their were two Aunt Hortense's. The Simpson family expects to inherit her estate, but instead each member is given $100 (except for Maggie). The rest was given to Ann Landers (as stated in Hortense's will).
Controversy
Since there have been two mentioned Aunt Hortense's, there has been a lot of theories behind it.
- The name was passed down. One could be Homer's aunt and another Homer's great aunt.
- There could be two people of the same name related to the Simpsons.
- It could have been an oversight by the producers.
