Kathleen is an Irish widow and an accountant at the Happy Mask Sad Mask Players theater company. Kathleen is an acquaintance of the Belchers, and she has started dating Teddy, who is overly eager to please her and often has the Belchers help impress her. She makes her first appearance in "The Helen Hunt."

She is voiced by Sharon Horgan.

Story

She first appears in "The Helen Hunt," where the Belchers and Teddy visit her apartment while searching for a hidden netsuke left to Helen by her late husband, Larry, who owned the apartment block. She and Teddy recognize each other from a previous encounter and Tina notices the two's natural chemistry with one another. Tina then pumps for Kathleen being Teddy's ideal love interest over Helen. Unlike Helen, Kathleen shows genuine concern for Teddy when his life becomes endangered and the two spend time together afterwards.

She also appears in "All That Gene," where she gets a job as the accountant for The Happy Mask Sad Mask Players theater company.

In "Fingers-loose," Teddy mentions that she has invited him to go to the movies.

In "Comet-y of Errors," Teddy reveals that they are dating. Bob expresses to Teddy that he likes her and think they work well together; While she doesn't appear, Teddy's attempt to break up with her out of concern for his superstition is the major motivation for Bob's intervention.

Teddy attempts to feign interest in hurling in "The Show (and Tell) Must Go On," as he fears that Kathleen will leave him due to having different interests. He invites her to Bob's Burgers in order to watch a hurling match, which goes poorly as Teddy doesn't understand the vocabulary. When Teddy admits his concerns, Kathleen points out that every couple has different interests, Bob and Linda included, and that she greatly enjoys spending time with Teddy regardless of their differences.

Kathleen asks Teddy to pick her up after finishing a colonoscopy procedure rather than her cousin. After a series of events involving an injury, Linda, and a police escort, Teddy successfully manages to pick Kathleen up and gives her some of her favorite snacks before taking her home ("Colon-ly the Dronely").

Teddy mentions that she's visiting family in Ireland during the events of "Boogie Days," since he otherwise would've spent his birthday with her.
