Bio[]

Wilson Kingsbury is a native of Nantucket and a member of the Kingsbury family. He grew up alongside Helen Chapel and later developed a crush on her at an early age and would not leave her alone, implying he approached their friendship as a stalker. Called "Banana Head" by his classmates, Wilson annoying and creepy. After the death of his grandfather, Wilson returned to Nantucket for the funeral and was able to guilt Helen into accompanying him as his date. Although he tried to become more intimate with Helen at the funeral, she brutally rebuffed his advances. (Death Becomes Him)

Trivia[]

  • Wilson's infatuation for Helen doesn't make sense continuity-wise. In the series history, Helen has mentioned being fat as a child, not losing the excess weight until after Brian left the island. Possibly Wilson saw something in Helen that he was attracted to, but Joe's attraction would ultimately prove to Helen he was her true love.
  • Despite throwing herself at him, Wilson was completely uninterested in Casey Chapel. However, Wilson may also had been astute to Casey being interested only in him for his money.
  • Wilson said he was a likely candidate to be the hier to $10,500,000 in Harrison's will. This seemed to contradict Eleanor's anger towards her father "leaving it all to some bimbo". It was never revealed if Stacy or Wilson was the beneficiary, or the estate may have been divided between them.
