== History ==
=== Relationship with Mayor Quimby ===
[[File:Marthajoeconflit.png|thumb|left|200px]]
Martha is well aware that Mayor Quimby cheats on her; she only stays with him because she enjoys the power that goes with being the mayor's wife. Martha puts up a brave front of being all right with the mayor's cheating, but on one occasion she revealed her true feelings. [[Marge Simpson]] was visiting the Quimby house and talking to Martha in the mayor's home office. Martha accidentally pressed a button that transformed the office into a combination bar/strip joint, and broke down in tears at the sight of scantily clad women in cages being lowered from the ceiling.<ref>"[[The Last of the Red Hat Mamas]]"</ref>. Homer threw a Mardi Gras party, having invited most of the town. Joe speaks at the beginning of the party to say the party is open. But at the same time, this wife, Martha try to call Joe and he ask people to behave as if it were a conference in [[Zurich]]. At the same time, Martha came next to Quimby, and he says that he was disappointed and he had forgotten that she had come with him.<ref>"[[No Loan Again, Naturally]]"</ref>

Martha is the first lady of Springfield. She often goes with Joe Quimby to events, for example in the annual Easter celebration at Mayor Quimby's mansion.

Martha Quimby is already seen in the church next to Joe. She doesn't was present with the group of housewives, with Agnes Skinner, Maude Flanders and Helen Lovejoy. She was seen with [[Cookie Kwan]] and [[Lindsey Naegle]] and [[Manjula Nahasapeemapetilon]] in competition to have a appointment with the new famous hairdresser in Springfield, Julio.<ref>"[[Homer Scissorhands]]"</ref>

=== Relatives ===
Martha is related to actor [[Rainier Wolfcastle]]'s wife, Maria.<ref>"[[Homerazzi]]"</ref>

== Non-canon ==
In [[Lisa]]'s dream, Mayor Quimby's New Year's Resolution was to spend more time with his wife. He did, but eventually she divorced him as she realised she didn't love him.<ref>''[[Lisa Simpson in: that's SO glavin!]]''</ref>

== Behind the Laughter ==
[[File:MARTHA.png|thumbnail|right|150px]]
Like [[Sarah Wiggum]] and [[Bernice Hibbert]], Martha is one of the less notable and more sane characters on the show. Also like Mrs. Wiggum and Mrs. Hibbert, Martha plays the role of the quiet housewife, the wife to a corrupted husband.

Martha often wears a pink suit and pillbox hat, a style similar to the one that {{w|Jacqueline Kennedy}} made famous.
