Fans of The Simpsons are up in arms over the unexpected death of one of the long-running series’ main characters.
In the final episode of season 36 of the cartoon, titled “Estranger Things”, the fate of the Simpsons’ matriarch, Marge, is revealed.
While focusing on Bart and Lisa’s relationship, it skips 35 years into the future, where Lisa finds a letter and will from her mother to be opened after her death.
In it, Marge urges her two children, now in their 40s and having grown apart, to try to repair their relationship.
She’s later seen watching her family from heaven, before walking off camera with The Beatles’ drummer, Ringo Starr.
The revelation suggests Marge is set to die around the time she turns 70, although it’s not revealed how.
