Ned Flanders
Ned is a double widower, having been married to the equally religious Maude. They had two children together; the sheltered and naive Rod and Todd Flanders. In the eleventh season, Maude died an untimely death in a freak accident involving a T-shirt cannon, leaving Flanders alone and grieving. While still married to Maude, Ned married Ginger, while on a drunken bender in Las Vegas. Ginger came to live with Ned and his sons for a brief period following Maude's death in a later episode, but she quickly grew tired of the Flanders' sickly-sweet personalities and fled. Despite his outward nerdishness, Flanders has also been connected romantically with a beautiful Christian-rock singer, Rachel Jordan, movie star Sara Sloane and eventually marrying local teacher Edna Krabappel until she died as well.
Kate Winslet
While holidaying at Richard Branson's estate on Necker Island in 2011, Winslet met her third husband, Ned Rocknroll (born Edward Abel Smith; he is the nephew of Branson and works for Virgin Galactic), during a house fire. The couple married in New York in December 2012, and their son, Bear, was born the next year. After moving back to England, Winslet purchased a property worth £3.25 million by the sea in West Wittering, Sussex, where () she lives with Rocknroll and her children. In a 2015 interview, she described how much she enjoyed living in the countryside.
