The presence of Jenny drew [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] to Messaline, paradoxically, before her creation, so that she, in effect, caused herself to exist. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Doctor's Daughter]]'') However, this may be due to the TARDIS being old and faulty, so it got there earlier than the time it was being summoned to. | The presence of Jenny drew [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] to Messaline, paradoxically, before her creation, so that she, in effect, caused herself to exist.

As the Doctor is Jenny's father, many of her relatives are unknown. She is the Doctor's youngest child as he states that he had fathered children and had a family before, making Jenny their sister on some level (or more accurately their half-sister as, assuming the Doctor's other children were born naturally, they would have the same father as Jenny, but a different mother, since Jenny did not actually have a mother).

Although not considered a companion of the Doctor's, Jenny can be, at least, considered a "companion presumptive" as it is clear, once the Doctor accepts her as his daughter, that she would travel with him and Donna. Her apparent "death" ended these plans. This places Jenny in the same category as [[Astrid Peth]], [[Lynda Moss]] and [[Madame de Pompadour]], who were all invited to travel with the Doctor, and accepted the invitation (as Jenny does), yet die before they are able to do so. However, since Jenny revived, it could be that she could later re-encounter the Doctor and become one of his companions, if their paths should cross in a later episode, unlike the previous 'companion presumptives'. | Although not considered a companion of the Doctor's, Jenny can be, at least, considered a "companion presumptive" as it is clear, once the Doctor accepts her as his daughter, that she would travel with him and Donna.
