Matthew Cuthbert

Marilla’s brother is a bit of a wallflower—shy and charmingly awkward, he instantly takes a liking to Anne. They click right away, forming a friendship that feels natural and easy. While he doesn’t have much to say compared to Anne’s chatter, he’s a phenomenal listener, soaking in every word. Unlike Marilla, who has her eye on practicality, he sneaks Anne a few treats that are more about fun than function, like a dress with those delightful puffed sleeves she adores. It's sweet to see how he quietly supports Anne’s dreams and quirks, adding to the warmth of their bond.
