Helen Santos is the wife of President Matthew Santos and current First Lady of the United States. She and Matt have two children, a son named Peter and a daughter named Miranda. Helen and Matt have been married for 15 years as of November 2006, placing their marriage in 1991 (Ep. 7.19) and their children are approximately five years old (7.20). Helen claims she grew up in a small house (7.19), and upon becoming "First Lady-elect", she seemed daunted by the luxury of the White House (7.19 & 7.20). Like her husband, she is Roman Catholic, and attends church with her family (7.10 & 7.22). Helen is aware of her husband's payments to Anita Morales, a former Houston City Hall clerk who had a child by Matt's unreliable brother (7.14). Little is revealed in the series about Helen's employment back
