NCIS fans will get to meet another one of Leroy Jethro Gibbs' mystery exes at some point during the show.

"I can promise you that [the mystery wife] is probably going to get touched on in season 12," showrunner Gary Glasberg told TVLine. "I have a little tiny space on my Dry Erase board for stories for next season, and that's already up there."

Glasberg also deemed the ex-wife introduction "[storyline] gold." But, all that's known so far about Gibbs' ex-wife is that she's a redhead.

Gibbs has had several relationships play out throughout the show. He was first married to Shannon (Darby Stanchfield), but she and their daughter, Kelly, tragically died in a car crash.

His second wife was Diane (Melinda McGraw), who is also the ex-wife of Agent Tobias Fornell. Diane appeared in the season 11 episode "Devil Triad," which aired in December.

"The humor that exists when these characters get together is just a blast," Glasberg also told TVLine last November about the three characters.

Gibbs also tied the knot for the fourth time with Stephanie (Kathleen York).

During season 11, fans were also introduced to one of Gibbs' ex-girlfriends. In the episode entitled "Kill Chain," his ex-girlfriend Hollis Mann (Susanna Thompson) appeared to help the team find a lethal terrorist drone.

Mann and Gibbs became romantically involved in the season 4 episode, "Sharif Returns." The relationship lasted until she realized how much he was still grieving over the death of his first wife and daughter.
