Wizards Beyond Waverly Place Unveils Shocking Family Secret in Season 2 Finale

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 8, 2025 — The Disney series Wizards Beyond Waverly Place concluded its second season with a shocking revelation about Alex Russo: she is the mother of Billie. The finale, titled “The Wizard at the End of the World,” aired earlier today, surprising fans with its twist on family dynamics.

In the spinoff, which premiered in 2024, Alex, played by Selena Gomez, took Billie, a powerful young wizard, under her wing to live with her brother Justin (David Henrie). Billie was brought in due to a prophecy suggesting she might be the key to avoiding an impending apocalypse.

The season finale escalated tensions as Billie discovered her crush, Quentin (Recker Eans), was actually an orc. Quentin betrayed Lord Morsus, an evil wizard, and ran away, putting them both in danger. As Billie tried to reach him, a spell created by Justin prevented her from leaving the house.

A chaotic scene ensued when Billie filled the house with gummy bears to escape. Meanwhile, Alex, Justin, and his wife Giada (Mimi Gianopulos) sought to gather information about Lord Morsus at the Wizard Tribunal, where they discovered that one of the members was under a spell.

As the episode unfolded, Billie bravely sneaked out to find Quentin but was confronted by Lord Morsus, who was disguised as Justin. A tense showdown ensued, leading Billie to cast a series of spells that revealed her true lineage.

In a heartbreaking memory flashback revealed during a critical moment, viewers see a young Billie begging Alex not to leave her at a wizard boarding school. Alex reassured her, saying they would find each other again before casting a memory wipe spell to protect her from danger.

Realizing the truth about Billie, Lord Morsus acknowledged his maternal connection and attempted to leverage this during the climax of the episode. However, the rift that connected their worlds had disastrous consequences when it opened, forcing Alex to sacrifice herself to protect her daughter.

The finale not only wrapped up major plotlines but also left fans anxious for the future. Billie joined the Russos in a group hug, affirming her place in the family dynamic.

With questions lingering about Alex’s past and her connection to Billie, David Henrie hinted at exploring these themes in a potential third season. “We end this season on the biggest cliffhanger the wizards universe has ever known,” he shared. Fans can expect to dive deeper into the lore and family struggles in upcoming episodes.
