# Loretta Brown

Cleveland Brown's late first wife and the mother of Cleveland Brown Jr.

## Core facts

- **Voiced by:** Alex Borstein
- **First appearance:** Mind Over Murder (S01E04, 25 April 1999)
- **Credited appearances:** 10 episodes across 6 seasons. This is a floor, because the source records at most ten voice credits per episode.

## Relationships

- **Former husband:** [Cleveland Brown](cleveland-brown.md)
- **Son:** [Cleveland Brown Jr.](cleveland-brown-jr.md)
- **Affair:** [Glenn Quagmire](glenn-quagmire.md); the affair ended her marriage

## Story

- In her early appearances she had very little dialogue.
- She treated Cleveland harshly, and her affair with Quagmire brought the marriage to an end.
- She dies in Gone with the Wind, an episode of the spin-off series. A brontosaurus skeleton swung by Peter's crane hits her house, and she falls from the first floor while in the bath and breaks her neck.
- She is buried in Stoolbend, and her will leaves her fortune to Cleveland Jr.

## Common errors to avoid

- **Her death is not a Family Guy episode.** It happens in Gone with the Wind, part of the spin-off series.
- **She is not Rallo's mother.** Her son is Cleveland Jr.; Rallo is Donna's son.

## Key episodes

- S01E04 Mind Over Murder: her first appearance
- S04E05 The Cleveland–Loretta Quagmire
- S07E01 Love, Blactually: her latest credited Family Guy episode
