Mrs. Bucket’s first name was never revealed.
Mrs Bucket appears in two of Roald Dahl's stories: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and its various film and stage adaptations, and Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator. She is the wife of Mr Bucket and the mother of Charlie. Her parents in the original story are Charlie's Grandpa George and Grandma Georgina, although in the 1971 film she is the daughter of Grandpa Joe and Grandma Josephine.
Mrs Bucket is a kind and caring mother. In the original story, when Mr Bucket loses his job and the family begin to starve, Mrs Bucket tries to make sure Charlie has her extra piece of bread, although Charlie won't take it. To learn more about Mrs Bucket visit Roalddahl.com.
