Teri Hudson (played by Joanne Carlsen) is Stanley Hudson's second wife. He and Teri had already been married when the series began; they attended The Dundies together in Season 2. Teri is white, middle-aged woman. On two separate occasions, at the Dundies and Phyllis' wedding, Michael has had to be told by an unamused Stanley that Teri is his spouse, as he is confused as to why she is not the same race as Stanley.
