Latest Synopsis


Jennifer Aldridge
(Formerly Travers-Macy, née Archer)
Home Farm
Born 7.1.45

(Angela Piper)

Four children by three fathers? What council estate Chavette is this? Well, put your prejudices on hold and meet Jennifer Aldridge; elegantly dressed and spoken, former teacher and writer, keeper of the Ambridge website, splendid cook and loyal wife. Pregnant by a local farm hand, unmarried Jennifer gave birth to Adam (now Macy) in 1967. She later married Roger Travers-Macy, who adopted Adam. They had a daughter Debbie, but the marriage didn't last, and Jennifer wed Brian in 1976. They had more daughters: Alice and Kate (now Madikane) who by the age of 20 was taking after her mother, with two children by two different fathers (Jennifer regularly looks after Phoebe). Although devastated by Brian's affair and the discovery of his son, doughty Jennifer fought for - and kept - her husband. Find out more about Jennifer's tempestuous marriage to Brian Aldridge.
