Estelle

Estelle is the kind of mom who can turn even the smallest inconvenience into a full-scale household crisis. To Jeffrey, she is a walking storm system—loud, dramatic, and always convinced the universe is personally out to get her. She moves through the house in a bathrobe and curlers like a general surveying a battlefield, prepared to blame anyone in sight for whatever has gone wrong that day. Estelle prides herself on being a "proper lady," which makes the constant chaos around her feel, to her mind, like a direct assault on her personal dignity. Beneath all the shouting and finger-pointing, though, she worries deeply about her family and wants everything to be perfect—even if her version of "perfect" usually ends with someone being accused of ruining dinner. She's quick to escalate, quicker to assume the worst, and absolutely certain she is never, ever the problem.
