Carey Marie Martin (played by Kim Rhodes) is a fictional character in the Disney Channel sitcom, The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and The Suite Life on Deck.
Biography[edit]
Carey is a headlining singer at the Tipton Hotel as well as the mother of Zack and Cody. She is a divorced mother, wise, kind, but strict, and seems to love the twins a lot. She is sometimes over-protective of her sons, which they hate, but does it for good reason. Arwin Hawkhauser has an obsessive crush on her. She has a younger sister who is never seen, and often dreams about George Clooney. Zack usually takes advantage of her (asking her for money, treating her like a maid, etc.), but at some points, tries to be more appreciative for what she does, like Cody. Carey found her talent for singing by mistake when she was at a talent show doing stand-up comedy.
Although she and Zack don't always get along, it is sometimes shown Zack really does appreciate his mother and loves her. She tries to keep the boys away from trouble, but never succeeds. Later in the second season, she changed her hair color from blond to reddish-brown multiple times. As of the third season, she has kept her brown hair and has grown it out a little. When she is trying to teach the boys a lesson (or in some cases, other characters) she uses a story from her past, which is always boyfriend related, leading to Zack and Cody or the other characters groaning. She was also once seen wearing rubber duck pajamas. It is said that she doesn't cook or cooks badly.
In the episode "Sleepover Suite," Carey states she is a Virgo. She likes the color blue and prefers wearing short dresses. She also dyed her hair blue in the other dimension of the episode when Zack and Cody went to a parallel dimension. Whenever around London Tipton, she would always be falsely yet humorously helping her since London always exclaims that Carey told her everything. She did not board the S.S Tipton so that she could keep her job but Mr Moseby is watching Zack and Cody for her. However, Carey has visited the ship along with Kurt. When the ship docks in Japan, Zack and Cody visit their mom who is doing a new commercial.
In 2007, Kim Rhodes became pregnant; however, the show didn't incorporate it in the series. Carey was seen putting her hand on her stomach and she did have a bump at the show's end.
Friendships and relationships[edit]
- Kurt Martin (Robert Torti) - Kurt Martin is the father of Zack and Cody, and Carey's divorced husband who first appears in "Dad's Back". He is known as the more fun and spontaneous parent and he leads a rock band. He is also seen in "Christmas at the Tipton" where he was going on a trip with Zack and Cody without Carey and ends up getting snowed in at the Tipton. Cody thought that Kurt and Carey were getting back together but they never did. He and Carey sang at the Tipton and helped deliver a baby. He also appears in "Volley Dad", where Cody asked him to stop Carey from being all over a new boyfriend. He is back in the Season Three premiere: Graduation for Zack and Cody. Kurt appeared in five episodes throughout the series and twice in The Suite Life on Deck.
- Marion Moseby (Phill Lewis) - The manager for the Boston Tipton who is fond of Carey and often goes to her with the financial billing of the boys' mischief.
- "Harvey Two Face" (David Shatraw) - A very wealthy lawyer that proposed to her, but Carey declined him, even though she did have feelings toward him, saying that their whole relationship was so sudden. Zack, Mr. Moseby, and even Kurt approved of him, while Cody didn't. She later tells Cody that she wouldn't have married him anyway if he didn't like Harvey. Harvey was never mentioned or seen after that episode.
- Arwin Hawkhauser (Brian Stepanek) - An engineer that works in the hotel, that has a crush on Carey and Carey had a crush on him in the alternate universe discovered by Zack and Cody. He is often nervous around Carey, and sometimes is rejected. He faints every time Carey kisses him. In "Kisses & Basketball", "Bowling", and "Going for the Gold" and a flashback from "Mr. Tipton Comes to Visit", Carey kisses him; he fainted each time. Also, he is seen to have a cardboard cut of Carey, and some pictures of her, in his office.
- Serge the Concierge - A concierge that likes Carey who took credit for the poem that Arwin wrote for her, but the twins and Carey found out it was Arwin.
- Herman Spatz (Steve Hytner) - The director of the Tipton commercial. Carey ditched him while on a dinner date, and now he hates her. He is also shown to be unfair.
- The Mellow Notes - Four Barber Shop singers that all fell for Carey. She was not interested in them. But when they offered to take her to dinner, she accepted. But during the time when they were singing and dragging her out the door to come to dinner, they were singing "We promise this date will really be tops!". So she yelled back to the twins (singing); "If I'm not back by 10, call the cops!!!"
Family members[edit]
- Martha (unseen) - A character occasionally mentioned. She is Carey's younger sister. She was first mentioned in the episode, Moseby's Big Brother, where she said that Moseby and his brother's behavior reminded her of her sister and her.

In the second episode, Zack stated that when they lived with her, her false teeth dropped into his chocolate milk. She is also mentioned in "Birdman of Boston" when Cody has to let the hawk he found go his mother tells him that she wanted to join her boyfriend's band when she was 18 but her mother was worried but let her go anyway then Cody asks her why did she go if she might have not made it she tells him it was a risk she would take.
