Helen is Nick's wife. Little is known about her, and she appears only briefly in "Wedding Day" when the newly-married couple are rowing to a cottage where they are going to spend their honeymoon. The two spend some time apart apparently (for reasons unknown), as Nick spends at least a few months with his friend George in Europe. In "Cross-Country Snow," Nick mentions that she will be having their first child.
