Gregory Van Dripp evolved out of a character originally called Gregory Von Lingrinkiss the 3rd. He is an obnoxious mix of Veronica Lodge, sharing her trademark wealth, and Reggie Mantle, sharing his trademark vanity. A weasel when it comes to women, Gregory uses his wealth and charm to attract the fairer sex⦠and his shifty cunning to keep his competition at bay. Of course, good-natured Suzie longs to see the positive in everyone, and can’t see through Gregory’s smarmy disguise. Thankfully, her good friend Ferdie helps her see the light about this roguish Romeo.
