Rita Loud

Rita Loud, also known as Brita, is a character from The Loud House series.
== Charactah Account ==
Rita is the matriarch of the Loud Family and wife of Lynn.
Rita is caring towards her children, but is not afraid to punish them if they go too far. She and her husband act playfully romantic towards each other, 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 in "The Loudest Yard".
Rita dreams 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.

** Rita's birthday occurs a few weeks before Lynn Sr.'s half-birthday. Since Lynn Sr. is a Libra, that means her birthday is somewhere in March or April, making her a Pisces or Aries.
* She knows how to fly a plane, because Albert told her stories of when he was in the navy and got the necessary knowledge on how flying a plane works.
* Rita and Lynn Sr. had to separate at least one point in their marriage because Lynn Sr. had infectious mononucleosis, which he caught from a contaminated microphone.
* It’s shown that Rita can make some dental jokes in "Rita Loud".
