List of Mad Men Characters - Other Characters - Rebecca Pryce

Rebecca Pryce (Embeth Davidtz) is Lane Pryce's wife of 18 years. Born to an upper-class British family, she's stylish, polite, and kindly, if a bit snooty. She follows Lane to New York in Season 3, but suffers the strain of culture shock and by Season 4 returns to London, with their son, Nigel, in tow. After a brief separation, and Lane's infidelity with a black Playboy Bunny, they apparently smooth over their problems and Rebecca moves back to New York to reconcile. She is stunned by his suicide and combines her genuine grief over losing him and the general contempt she viewed him with when she angrily says SCDP is at fault because they filled "a man like that with ambition". She also astutely realizes the USD$50,000 check Don gives her, reimbursing Lane's partnership fee, is worth less than Lane's contribution to the firm.
