Merryweather (Sleeping Beauty)
Last Updated on: November 29th, 2024
Who is Merryweather?
Merryweather is one of the three good fairies in Disney’s animated classic Sleeping Beauty (1959).
Alongside Flora and Fauna, she plays a pivotal role in the story as one of Princess Aurora’s magical protectors. Merryweather is known for her feisty personality and quick wit, often clashing humorously with Flora, especially over whether Aurora’s gown should be pink or blue. Despite her smaller size, she is courageous and fiercely protective of Aurora, even going so far as to suggest turning Maleficent into a toad when the villainess curses the princess. Merryweather is also instrumental in softening Maleficent’s curse, changing the fatal prick of the spindle into a sleep from which Aurora can be awakened by true love’s kiss.
Merryweather’s distinct voice was brought to life by actress Barbara Luddy, who was a staple in Disney voice acting during the mid-20th century. Luddy also voiced characters such as Lady in Lady and the Tramp (1955) and Kanga in Disney’s Winnie the Pooh films.
