Elizabeth "Betty" Hofstadt Francis is a fictional character on AMC's television series Mad Men, portrayed by January Jones. The character's appearance is often compared to Grace Kelly. Blonde and beautiful but insecure, Betty Draper is introduced as the wife of lead character Don Draper, a philandering advertising executive secretly living under a false identity. Subplots in the first three seasons of Mad Men involve Betty's struggles with depression, parenting their children, and her husband's infidelity. In the third season, Betty finds herself attracted to Henry Francis, an older man who is the public relations director for New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller. After discovering Don lied to her about his identity and past, Betty divorces him and marries Henry. In the fourth season, Betty is a less central character and now has a contentious relationship with Don, communicating with him only in regard to their children and the house Don still owns but she and Henry live in. In the fifth season, Betty and Henry are in their own house, but Betty gains weight and continues to have a contentious relation with Don and his new wife Megan, whom the children prefer.
