Rita Loud is the mother of the eponymous family and a supporting character on The Loud House. In the show's first season, she and her husband Lynn Loud Sr. were typically only seen from the neck down, or would have their faces obstructed, the reason being to visually empower the Loud kids to solve their problems. Their faces were finally revealed in the second season premiere, "11 Louds a Leapin'", and have been shown regularly ever since.
Rita works as a dental assistant to Dr. Feinstein, though she has spent her downtime working on a novel. She mentions to have finished writing said novel in "Write and Wrong", and as of that episode, now has her own parenting advice column in the newspaper. She is generally caring toward her children, but is not afraid to punish and ground them if they go too far. She and her husband of eleven act playfully romantic toward each other, though she is apparently more level-headed than him.
She has also made a few guest appearances on the spin-off The Casagrandes.
Personality[]
Rita is caring toward her children, but is not afraid to punish and ground them if they go too far. She and her husband act playfully romantic towards each other, (an example of this is when the skinny dip into the hotel pool) though she is apparently more level-headed than him. An example of this is when she's concerned about Lincoln playing video games too much and tells him to do some sport outside as shown in "The Loudest Yard". She has shown a desire to be a novelist but initially seems to lack a creative side, as she wrote a story about a bored dental assistant talking to her fish before being inspired by Lincoln to write about a thrill seeker with white hair, himself.
She's usually a very good parent, but 2 times she was shown as overly harsh; In "April Fools Rules", she agreed to lock Luan in crate to prevent her from pulling harming pranks (Though it's debatable if she or Lynn Sr. knew about this, as it seemed to be just Lincoln and the other nine sisters), and in "No Such Luck", she believed Lincoln is bad luck so she expelled him from the house and disowned him by selling his furniture like she didn't expect him to return ("No Such Luck" is seen by many fans as one of the worst episodes of the series, and portraying Rita in such an uncharacteristically cruel way was part of that).
Appearance[]
Rita wears a pink shirt with a white collar and cuffs, and purple pants. She has big blonde hair, rather broad hips, and wears white earrings. She also wears blue eye shadow and red lipstick. She also wears black low tops, similar to Sue.

Trivia[]
- According to The Really Loud House episode "The Macho Man with the Plan", Rita's birthday is just a few weeks before Lynn Sr.'s half-birthday.
- Because Lynn Sr. is a Libra, that puts her birthday somewhere in March, making her either a Pisces or Aries.
