She loves her parents dearly, but has a rather tense relationship with Oscar as he frequently embarasses her and clashes with him over matters of the heart, especially when dating boys.

Trudy is the second most sensible member of the family along with Penny, though she can be bossy sometimes.
* '''Suga Mama Proud''' (voiced by [[Jo Marie Payton]]{{Sfn|McCann|2010|pp=264–265}}{{Sfn|Fearn-Banks|2006|pp=326, 337, 465|p=}}) is Penny, BeBe, and CeCe's [[hip (slang)|hip]], [[Professional wrestling|wrestling]]-loving paternal grandmother, Oscar and Bobby's mother and Trudy's mother-in-law who does [[Tae Bo]].
