Quote
"There it is. Isn't it fantastic?"
Ariel , also known as Princess Ariel , is the titular main protagonist of the Little Mermaid franchise . She is the first Disney Princess to be of non-human heritage and also the first Disney Princess to beget a child.
She is the 7th, youngest daughter and mermaid princess of King Triton and Queen Athena , the love interest and later wife of Prince Eric , and the mother of Melody . She is loosely based on the nameless protagonist from the original novel by Hans Christian Andersen.
In all of her appearances, she is voiced by Jodi Benson .
