Hortense Simpson

Character Information
|
Hortense Simpson, also nown as Aunt Hortense is a great-aunt to the Simpsons. She was first seen in Heaven when Bart briefly died.[1] Hortense is said to have died later though, as the The Simpson family expected 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).[2]
Behind the Laughter
Since there have been two mentioned Aunt Hortense's, there has been some speculation about the character(s).
- The name was passed down. One could be Homer's aunt and another Homer's great aunt.
- The events of "Bart Gets Hit by a Car" could have been before "Bart the Fink".
- The will could have been lost for a long time.
- Bart thought she was dead but she was not.
- It could have been an oversight by the producers.
