Nobody who grew up with Wizards of Waverly Place expected the Disney Channel to kill off one of the most beloved characters. One original cast member’s fate, in particular, quickly made the rounds on social media after the season 3 finale of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, and it was none other than Gregg Sulkin‘s Mason Greyback: Alex Russo’s (Selena Gomez) former werewolf boyfriend and high school sweetheart. So, what exactly happened to him, and did their relationship ever really end?
News47.us breaks down Mason’s fate in Wizards of Waverly Place and how the sequel series ended below. (Warning: spoilers are ahead on the ending of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place)
At the end of the original magical series, which wrapped in 2012, Alex and Mason got back together despite the odds against them. Werewolves and wizards weren’t allowed to be together, but the couple concluded the original Disney Channel series on a positive note.
However, it looks like Mason and Alex eventually went their separate ways, though it’s still unclear how or why. She later had her daughter, Billie, which Wizards Beyond Waverly Place revealed.
During the sequel series’ season 3 finale, Alex goes missing inside a portal and finds herself living in a supposed fairytale life with her childhood best friend, Harper Finkle (Jennifer Stone), and her “boyfriend” is apparently supposed to propose to her.
Mason is revealed to be the boyfriend in question, who appears at Alex’s front door to reunite with her. But once Alex tells him to pop the big question, Mason explains the real reason for his visit.
