Sue Ellen Shepard Ewing Lockwood was a character on the popular American television series Dallas, played by Linda Gray.

Sue Ellen was married to J.R. Ewing, whom she had met when she was a beauty queen; she had in fact been Miss Texas 1967 (before the start of the show, but occasionally mentioned in the storyline). Their love had faded with the years and with J.R.'s numerous extramarital affairs, and Sue Ellen started drinking in her misery. Still, she gave birth to J.R.'s long awaited heir, their son John Ross Ewing III. The couple separated in 1981 and divorced in early 1982. After a short fling with J.R.'s enemy, Cliff Barnes, Sue Ellen and J.R. reconciled and remarried. They however divorced again in 1988 and in 1989 Sue Ellen married Don Lockwood and moved to London with him. But in 1996 she divorced Don and reconciled with J.R.
