Contents
Relationship with Cletus
Brandine and Cletus are both stereotypical representatives of so-called “trailer trash.” Brandine and Cletus were married by Homer Simpson despite the fact that they are oft-insinuated to be related (siblings, cousins, each other's parents, and aunt/uncle)As suggested in "The Italian Bob", the eighth episode of the seventeenth season, by a quote from Brandine addressed to Cletus: "You are the most wonderful husband and son I ever had". This was also suggested in an earlier episode where Brandine complained about Cletus insisting that they make out in front of her parents and Cletus responds with "Now,now, Brandine. They's my parents, too". It is also implied that she was divorced four times prior to her marriage to Cletus.[1]
Character Traits
Disabilities
She has suffered from rabies and admitted to being illiterate.
Children
She has 39 children. Originally there were only 26 children who appeared in The Twisted World of Marge Simpson who are considered the original Spuckler Kids. However, In Yokel Chords seven extra kids were added as one-time characters for the episode, and it is also revealed that she is the mother of 39 while Cletus is the father of 2 lame children.
Jobs
She once interviewed for a job as a stripper, although she refused to wear the combat boots that her husband had found, stating she did not want to scuff the topless dancing runway. She, along with Cletus, is claustrophobic due to Cletus's line of "Just 'cause we's afraid of using the "uppity-box"" (an elevator). She also has apparently worked at Dairy Queen at some point, which she referenced in refusing to wear a shirt Cletus gave her, citing she had to wear “the shirt what Dairy Queen give me.” In “Yokel Chords,” it was shown that Brandine was in Iraq, fighting in the Iraq War. She came back to stop Cletus’ exploitation of their children, and to tell him that he was only the father of the two untalented kids, casting doubt over the paternity of the 37 other Spuckler children. She once was briefly under consideration as a foster mother to the Simpson children.
