Mamá Imelda is Miguel's great-great-grandmother, the matriarch of the Rivera family and the founder of their successful shoemaking business. Miguel meets Mamá Imelda in the Land of the Dead and discovers she does not share his passion for music.[1]

Imelda is the matriach of the Rivera and has a family with a musician and her daughter Coco, but after her husband left to play nationwide, she had a grudge on him for abandoning her, and she tried to replace the music with shoemaking and made her family become shoemakers.
