London Tipton
Template:Female adult bio London Tipton is a fictional character in the comedy television show The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. She is portrayed by actress Brenda Song.
Character information
London Tipton is the rich, air-headed, teenage daughter of Wilfred Tipton. London's parents are divorced and she lives in and is heiress to the Tipton Hotel, owned by her father.
London, being very wealthy, often goes to Europe, wears expensive clothing, and shops a lot. She is friends with other show characters, such as twins Zack and Cody, as well as the hotel's candy girl, fellow teenager Maddie Fitzpatrick.
Despite being pampered, London misses some things that other, middle-class teenagers have - a fact which was revealed during an episode in which she stayed over at Maddie's house. Among the things she misses are having her parents by her side and not being able to do things normal teenagers do, such as sleepovers. As a matter of a fact, she told Maddie that when she was at Maddie's house, it was her first ever sleepover.
London Tipton is a parody of Paris Hilton, with both their first names being cities and their last names (Tipton and Hilton) being hotels.
London's Love Life
London has dated a numerous amount of men. She often has her dates with Maddie (a double date) and the men she dated are always wealthy. London has never had a stable relationship with a man.
In the episode Cookin' With Romeo and Juliet London falls for the heir of the St. Mark hotel across the street from the Tipton. His name is Todd, and at first she only likes him for his looks and money, but later realizes that she is in fact in love with everything about him. The managers of both the Tipton and the St. Mark will not allow London and Todd's relationship to develop due to the fact that the two hotels are rivals. However London and Todd do whatever they can to see each other, proving that London has fallen in love. This has been the only case of "true love" that London has experienced.
Family
London's parents are divorced and her father has been seen in only one episode, while her mother has never been shown. London's father has four ex-wives and many girlfriends. Out of Mr. Tipton's relationships, only London's current stepmother has actually been seen. London has no biological siblings but she has a stepsister named Yolanda (Yolanda is the daughter of a woman from one of Mr. Tipton's courtships.)
