Portrayed by: Ann Gillespie
She was the mother of Kelly Taylor and Erin Silver. She was separated from Mel Silver and had relapsed into drinking again. Early on in the first season, Kelly Taylor comes and takes Silver into her care instead.
In the second season, she makes a return. She had become sober, revealing to her daughters that she was suffering from Breast Cancer. After receiving the news, Silver decided to move back in with her to look after her in her final three months she had to live. Kelly however refused to 'fall back into her traps' and would not see her again. In episode nine, Jackie throws a half-birthday party for Silver, and although Jackie says she doesn't expect it to make up for her mistakes, Silver says it does. At the end of the episode, Jackie suffers from a heart-attack, and is taken to hospital. Although Silver visits her, knowing she was due to die at any time, Kelly will not, but drives Silver to the hospital. However, when she goes to the hospital to pick Silver up she finds the room Jackie was in is empty and realises she has made a mistake which she will regret. It turns out that Jackie was actually just moved, and Jackie makes her apology and Kelly forgives her, before Jackie passes away towards the end of episode ten.
