Namely, Grandma Magdalena from Wizards of Waverly Place. They're both portrayed by Belita Moreno, and they both have a grandson named Max. This, of course, means that George and Theresa are cousins, and the Russo kids are distant cousins of the Lopez kids. No wizardry in George's family, though, since it's the mortal side of the family. * * In an interesting twist, Theresa and Veronica's mom are both portrayed by Maria Canals Barrera. So...the Russo kid's are related to George AND part of Angie's family.
