Miss CrumpleBottom returns in [[The Sims 4: Cottage Living]] as Agnes Crumplebottom, where she resides in the world of [[Henford-on-Bagley]]. She can be seen hitting unsuspecting sims with her infamous handbag.
 
Mrs. CrumpleBottom is a very old-fashioned, stern, and strict woman who appears to abide by a [[wikipedia:Victorian morality|moral code from the Victorian Era]]. She detests when two Sims have any romantic interactions in public. When Mrs. CrumpleBottom sees any of these actions taking place on a community lot, she will promptly scold the Sims or beat them with her purse.<ref>In some versions of ''[[The Sims 2]]'', there is a glitch which may prevent Mrs. CrumpleBottom from noticing any romantic interactions.</ref> If a Sim innocently wanders out in his/her underwear or bathing suit, Mrs. CrumpleBottom will repeatedly lecture them until he/she changes back into his/her everyday clothes. This could be an issue if the player makes a public pool as a Downtown lot. Mrs. CrumpleBottom loves to knit, and she will usually knit as an idle animation when she's not doing anything; in fact, it was revealed that knitting utensils are one of the many things inside of her purse, others including lint, stones, and a portrait of her great aunt.<ref>[http://fr.sims.wikia.com/wiki/Les_Sims_2:_Nuits_de_Folie/Chat_25/08/2005]</ref>

In ''The Sims 3'', there is a purchasable book named "The Crumplebottom Legacy". This may be a reference to Mrs. Crumplebottom and her relatives.
 
Mrs. CrumpleBottom can also be found in [[The Sims 4: Cottage Living]] where she resides in the world of [[Henford-on-Bagley]]. She can also be seen hitting people with her infamous purse in the official trailer. There is some speculation that she will be living with a family member named [[Agatha Crumplebottom]] in the new world, because the Sims team did hint in a [https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/cottage-living-reveal Blog Post] that quote, ''"Agatha is the friendly one, Agnes is the grumpy one, but they both love crumpets."'' Also, a [https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/990605/greetings-from-henford-on-bagley Teaser] from SimGuruFrost revealed a message about the new world that included a signature from, ''"A&A Crumplebottom"''.

*Some players believe that Mrs. CrumpleBottom could be the daughter of Agnes Crumplebottom and [[Erik Darling]]. Although it is a strong possibility, it would be inconsistent, considering that she did not return in ''[[The Sims 3]]''.
*Another theory is that Mrs. CrumpleBottom is the widow of [[Robert Crumplebottom]], a character mentioned in ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'' who was originally said to be the late husband of Miss Crumplebottom, but this was later stated not to be the case. This would make sense, since later versions of the game make it clear that Miss Agnes Crumplebottom was born into the family and that her husband was a different character altogether, while Mrs. CrumpleBottom's title makes it more likely that she married a male relative of the family and took his name.
*An additional theory is that [[Agnes Seabottom]], a spoof of Agnes Crumplebottom appearing in ''The Sims 3'' download [[Barnacle Bay]], may be a younger version of the character who went on to become Mrs. CrumpleBottom in ''The Sims 2''. This is unlikely, however, seeing as the  [[Caliente family|Caliente sisters]]  and Agnes Seabottom both appear as  [[young adult]]s, which places Barnacle Bay either quite close before, or sometime after  ''The Sims 2''.
*It appears that Mrs. CrumpleBottom was created specifically to replace [[Miss Crumplebottom]] from ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'', seeing as she was already dead by ''The Sims 2''.
*In ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', there is a location in [[Sim State University]] known as '''Crumplebottom Lane'''. This may be a reference to Mrs. CrumpleBottom and her family.
