Who is Theresa Russo?
Theresa Russo is a central character in the Disney Channel series Wizards of Waverly Place. She is the loving but no-nonsense mother of Alex, Justin, and Max Russo, and the wife of Jerry Russo.
Theresa is portrayed by actress Maria Canals-Barrera. In the show, Theresa is a mortal, making her unique in a family where magic plays a significant role. Her husband, Jerry, is a former wizard who relinquished his magical powers to marry her, as magical law forbids wizards from marrying non-magical people and keeping their powers.
Theresa often serves as the grounding force for her children, particularly Alex, whose mischievous use of magic frequently leads to trouble. While she doesn’t have magical abilities, Theresa is far from powerless; she is resourceful, practical, and fiercely protective of her family. She provides moral guidance and strives to teach her children responsibility, whether it involves their wizard training or their day-to-day lives in their family’s sub shop in New York City.
