London Leah Tipton is one of the main characters of The Suite Life series. She is the only daughter of Wilfred Tipton, the owner of The Tipton Industries. London is good friends with Maddie, Bailey, Zack, Marcus, Cody, Woody, Maya, Corrie, Francesca, Chelsea, Max, Tiffany and Raven.
London was born on October 6, 1990 to Wilfred Tipton and his 3rd wife who is unseen throughout the series. London switches between her birth mother and her father, and never really had any quality family time with them. Since she was a young child, London has always worn designer clothing including designer diapers, made by Arturo Vitali. She has a lot of interest in fashion (as mentioned in That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana). London looked up to her father but he never was really there for her. When she moved into the Tipton Hotel, she was taken care of by Mr. Moseby and she developed a very great bond with him throughout the series.
At the age of 15, she met Maddie Fitzpatrick, who eventually became her best friend. London enrolled at Maddie's Catholic school, Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow after her father tried to attend Parents Night at London's old school and they had never heard of her. Later on, London was expelled because she did not attend her classes. When her father heard about her expulsion, he sent her to the Seven Seas High, a high school program at the S.S. Tipton, because, on a ship, she would not be able escape to another place (except by helicopter or submarine). London often complains about Seven Seas High and how much she "hate[s] this stupid sea-school."
