Character Information
|
Abbie is Homer Simpson's English half-sister[1]. She is a daughter of Abraham Simpson and Edwina.
Background
Abbie was the result of a relationship between Edwina and Abe during the Second World War. Abe was in England before D-Day. Unknowingly to him, she got Edwina pregnant and the result was Abbie.
Abraham and the rest of the Simpson family only met as they were leaving England at a London Airport.
Relationships
It should be noted that while she is obviously a biological Simpson (aside from her appearance and personality, she was born only about a year after Grampa's affair with her mother) she is not officially recognized by the family and never explicitly called a Simpson; the audience is merely left with a strong indication aside from the fact she is still related biologically.
It could be possible that even though she is female, Abbie may have somehow inherited the Simpson Gene defect that most of the Simpson males have. As Dr. Simpson pointed out, all the Simpson women have high intellects and good careers, because the defective gene is on the Y chromosome. This could be in an instance of the gene skipping a generation or striking some and missing others, as her half-brother Herbert Powell also supposedly inherited the Simpson Gene, but it has not significantly affected him.
Behind the scenes
Abbie was voiced by Dan Castellaneta. She appears similar to Homer but in drag and they share similar mannerisms and personalities.
