Honoria Glossop

Encyclopedia : H : HO : HON : Honoria Glossop

Honoria Glossop is a particularly formidable female from the Jeeves stories by P. G. Wodehouse. She is of a rather muscular, sporty temperament, and as such remains unattached. Honoria is the daughter of the renowned nerve specialist (i.e. loony doctor) Sir Roderick Glossop and his wife Lady Glossop.

Honoria was on many occasions engaged to Bertie Wooster, something which he, as a delicate, independent sort of fellow, disliked very much. However, he managed to shake her off pretty sharpish, thanks to the mind of his valet, Jeeves, whom she dislikes intensely. Since then, she has always rather held a torch for Bertie, hence he does his bally best to keep as far away from her as possible.

In Jeeves and the Greasy Bird, Honoria Glossop becomes engaged to a young modern novelist called Blair Eggelston and it looks as if Bertie is finally safe from her.
