Contents
Biography
Background
Abbie was the result of a relationship between Edwina and Abe during the Second World War. Abe was in England before D-Day and had had one night of passion with Edwina before he had to leave England.. Unknowingly to him, he got Edwina pregnant and the result was Abbie.
Abe and the rest of the Simpson family first met Abbie when she was forty-five years old as they were going back to America at the London Airport. When Abe realized that Abbie was his daughter, he ran off to the plane screaming.
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.
