Maggie Greene

Maggie Greene is a fictional character from the comic book series The Walking Dead, portrayed by Lauren Cohan in the television series of the same name.

In both mediums, Maggie Greene and Glenn form a relationship and eventually marry. In the comic book series, Maggie, Hershel's second daughter of seven children, becomes the surrogate mother to Sophia following the suicide of the girl's biological mother. Maggie initially has insecurities about herself and appears physically and emotionally challenged even attempting suicide at one point after her entire family is killed. However, as time passes, Maggie hardens and becomes severely independent. She leaves the Alexandria Safe-Zone and relocates to the Hilltop Colony. Later, she becomes heavily involved with the war against the Saviors. Maggie stands up and encourages the people to follow Rick Grimes instead of Gregory and Negan. Consequently the people of Hilltop listen to her instead of Gregory and she becomes the de facto leader of the Hilltop Colony. After the war, Maggie has a son named after her father, Hershel. She remains fiercely protective of her children, as well as Carl Grimes, while remaining at odds with previous leader, Gregory. However many people are at odds with her leadership because of her obvious greater concern for her group, but there are some who idolize her including Dante, who is shown to have feelings for Maggie.
