The last ruler in the name of the house of the Omrides was Queen Athaliah. She was utterly demonized in the Book of Kings. But a lot of that appears to be an attempt to cover up for Jehu, a psychopath who killed all the heirs to Omri and King David as part of a military coup. We have the real story of an event that broke the alliance between Israel and Judah and spurred on the destruction of both Israelite kingdoms.
