Mrs. Potts

Mrs. Beatrice Potts is one of the supporting characters from Beauty and the Beast and its midquels. She is the mother of Chip and the head housekeeper, who was turned into a teapot. 
She was voiced by the late in the 1991 film, who also played Jessica Fletcher and Miss Price in Bedknobs and Broomsticks. In the 2017 live action remake, she was voiced and portrayed by by Emma Thompson, who also voiced Captain Amelia and Queen Elinor.
Mrs. Potts is very motherly in nature, which befits her as she is the mother to the teacup Chip and his other brothers and sisters. As the castle's head housekeeper, she has a very strict sense of responsibility. Often she is kind and consoling, but can be stern when the situation calls for her to be; out of all of the Beast's servants, she is the one who will most likely confront him about his behavior when he is in a temper (depending on how extreme the Beast's mood is).
==Personality==
Out of all the members of the Beast's staff, Mrs. Potts is considered to be the most reliant member, due to being level-headed, intelligent, and self-righteous. Being a mother, she can be very gentle and nurturing, while also being stern and no-nonsense. Unlike Cogsworth and Lumiere, Mrs. Potts lacks troublesome quirks and acts as a voice of reason amongst her colleagues. Though she fears her master's violent outbursts, Mrs. Potts' stern attitude has a strong effect on the Beast, who appears to respect his head housekeeper the most out of all his servants where he has even been shown to occasionally snap out of his violent tantrums when she confronts him on his behavior.
==Biography==
Mrs. Potts is a servant to Prince Adam (The Beast) who treated her and the other servants coldly. One night, an old woman came to the castle and offered a rose in exchange for shelter from the cold. The servants presumably watched the Prince cruelly shutting the doors in the woman's face. However, the woman revealed herself to be a powerful enchantress who felt the Prince's rudeness and arrogance and had no choice but to transform him into a beast. The servants were also hit by the curse, becoming sentient household objects. Mrs. Potts, Chip, and her other children became a sentient teapot and sentient teacups.
==Trivia==
*Mrs. Potts' husband has never been revealed in the animated movie. In the 2017 live-action remake, her husband, Jean Potts, is a major character who had his memories of Mrs. Potts and Chip erased by the Enchantress.
*The only time Mrs. Potts' lid was removed intentionally was in The Enchanted Christmas.
*Mrs. Potts' first name was never mentioned in the animated movie while in the remake, she was given the name "Beatrice Potts."
