Gertrude Vanderworth (Earth-6531)

Gertrude Vanderworth was the wife of Lex Luthor after he left prison.

Early Life
An elderly rich woman, Gertrude Vanderworth fell in love with Lex Luthor during his imprisonment in Stryker's Island, which convinced her he "wasn't like the others". This led her to become an instrument for Lex to be released from prison, something which he was easily able to afford following Superman's death at the hands of Doomsday six months prior.

After being released from Stryker's Island, Lex married Gertrude, and they lived together for months. Gertrude had a maid, Kitty Kowalski, who secretly became Lex's lover. Eventually, Gertrude she fell ill of old age and her death soon approached. In her death bed, Vanderworth declared that all her fortune would be passed to Lex, even though her family clamored her not to do so. Before she was able to sign her will, Gertrude died, and Lex finished signing it for her, afterwards taking his wedding ring and throwing it on her dentures' glass. Lex then settled out with Kitty, taking her mansion and yacht for himself.
