Benson Family Members

Some members of Freddie's family are occasionally mentioned during the series and some of them are seen never, some seen once, and some are recurring characters.

Mrs. Benson/Marissa Benson
Marissa Benson is Freddie's mom. She cares for Freddie a lot, like any mother would, but her parenting skills take caring to an alarming degree. She is shown to smother Freddie with affection and has an irrational fear that anything and everything is going to hurt him. Mrs. Benson is quite paranoid when it comes to her son's physical safety and health. She is quite unique as a mother. In iHurt Lewbert, she begins dating Lewbert the doorman. According to a photo Dan released a photo of the script then promptly deleted of an unaired scene from ISpeed Date. Marissa was married a man Leonard with the same last name as her maiden name,

Mr. Benson
Mr. Benson is the father of Freddie Benson and the ex-husband of Mrs. Benson. In iChristmas, it is mentioned that Marissa Benson is single. It is unknown if he will appear on the show. It is possible he left because he couldn't stand her anymore (or vice versa), According to a photo Dan released a photo of the script then promptly deleted of an unaired scene from ISpeed Date. His name was revealed to be Leonard Benson, who shares the same last name as Freddie's mother Marissa. It is unaware of his character will ever appear on the show. It is also unaware if he is deceased or not as no mention of him has been made following ISpeed Date, where he was supposed to mentioned. However that scene was deleted.

Freddie´s Uncle
Freddie's Uncle is only mentioned in iHatch Chicks. Freddie says that his uncle is a carpenter and maybe he can help get the baby chick out of the wall. He was never named nor mentioned again.

Aunt Jennifer
Jennifer is Freddie´s aunt. She is never seen or heard, as she was only mentioned while Freddie argued with her over the phone in iMeet Fred. She apparently is a Fred fan, as she was calling Freddie names over the phone because he had said things that made Fred stop making videos.

Cousin Amanda
Amanda is the cousin of Freddie. She was mentioned in iSaved Your Life and described as "icky", (by Carly), and "disgusting", (by Freddie). Dan mentions in his iSaved Your Life Fun Facts that Amanda may be seen in a future episode. Freddie's cousin, Amanda could be the one from "The Amanda Show"

Baby Stephanie
Stephanie is the baby/first cousin once removed of Marissa Benson's cousin, and second cousin to Freddie who appeared in iPie. She acted bubbly and giggly to everyone else, but to Freddie, she just had a "bored, blank expression" which, according to Carly and Freddie, looked exactly like the one Sam has in math class. At the end of the episode, Freddie finally gets Stephanie to laugh at him by throwing a pie in his own face.

Freddie's Great Grandfather
Freddie's Great Grandfather, was a gifted fencer and a member of the Fencin' Bensons. He is mentioned in iFence when Marissa Benson explains to Freddie why she didn't want him to fence.
