[edit] Sanders/Saunders
There is some confusion about Kate's surname as it has been given as Sanders or Saunders in different episodes. In the novelations of the shows and movie her name is written as "Sanders".[citation needed]
[edit] Personality
Kate was formerly best friends with Lizzie, Miranda, and Gordo since Kindergarten. The summer before they went to Middle School, Kate became extremely popular and developed a totally different personality and attitude towards Lizzie, Miranda, and Gordo. Kate is mean, obnoxious and egotistical towards Lizzie and her friends (as well as other unpopular students). Kate uses her popular "power" as a form of bullying and disrespecting as well as showing off to everyone. It is shown that Kate is a cheerleader and this is her main source of "power" (she being the cheer captain). If she is kicked off the team for any reason (as happened temporarily in one episode due to an injury), she becomes and remains "unpopular" until she gets back on the team. She often acts sweet and innocent towards teachers, students' parents and other members of authority and then goes back to being her mean self as soon as they leave. Kate can sometimes temporarily be a better person with the teachings of Lizzie, as seen in Kate's Big Adventure, where Kate and Lizzie are working on a project together. Kate's secret is that she was held back a year in kindergarten, and is one year older than her class. It is shown on I've Got Rhythmic she is terrible at rhythmic gymnastics, a very major sport in cheerleading. In the same episode, it is hinted that Kate is camera shy. In The Lizzie McGuire Movie she seems to become a better person, learning the truth about Lizzie and helping her instead of rating her out. She proves to be a loyal friend when she wants to, covering for Lizzie.
[edit] Amy Sanders/Saunders
Amy (played by Hilary Duff's sister Haylie) is Kate's 18-year old cousin. She is as every bit as mean as Kate and acts very irresponsibly as shown in the episode "Party Over Here". She appears in about 4 episodes.
[edit] Love Relationships
In The Lizzie McGuire Movie, the trip chaperone tells Kate to separate from Ethan Craft after an argument about spaghetti and how Kate won't eat it. Kate responds to the chaperone with: Oh, we did, Ms. Ungermeyer, and thank God. Towards the end of the movie, Kate and Ethan have a romantic moment where they eat spaghetti together.
