Margaret Dent

Margaret Dent is George's mostly unseen wife. Despite George's devotion to her, she is constantly cruel towards him, openly insulting his sexual prowess in front of others and is implied to have had numerous affairs, one of which caused her to request a blood test following the birth of their daughter Deborah.

Margaret eventually divorces George and takes the house from him, before marrying Todd, her liposuctionist (though the wedding is ruined by George hiring an attractive prostitute to seduce the groom). By the end of the series, this marriage has collapsed and she leans on George to support her again following an accident. In the end, he gives up a prospectively happy life with Sue, Henry Davenport's niece, to nurse Margaret.
