‘Girlfriends’ Guide To Divorce’ Spoilers: Series Creator Spills On Potential Reunion For Abby & Jake, Adds That Fans Haven’t Seen The End Of Lyla [PHOTO]
Though the title of the show implies that the starring couple's marriage won't end well, divorce may not be the endgame for Abby (Lisa Edelstein) and Jake (Paul Adelstein) on Girlfriends' Guide To Divorce.
The Consequences Of Jake & Abby's Unexpected Hook-Up
In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, show creator Marti Noxon dished on the fact that the show showcases and touches upon all the aspects of divorce-including the ones that still wind up with a happily-ever-after ending.
"...That was a fun discovery," she said of the connection Abby and Jake still share. "We didn't expect that. I certainly never would have thought I would create a show about divorce where the ultimate answer is that this couple shouldn't be, but that's real too."
"I've heard this story from a number of people who say, 'My parents got divorced, and then they remarried three years later, and they're still together,'" she added. 'So my mind has been open to that possibility, but certainly some of the other characters will stay divorced. We've already started to branch into other questions, like Delia is going to be dealing with whether she believes in marriage, period. She's never been married, and honestly, she doesn't see herself being married. Sexual politics is ripe for storytelling between Jake and Abby and all the characters. Potentially [Jake and Abby] take us to a place we didn't think because their chemistry is ridiculous"
In addition, Noxon also revealed that despite Lyla's (Janeane Garofalo) exit from the show after just a few episodes, fans may not have seen the last of her.
"Hopefully," she said about the character's possible return. "She didn't fall down an elevator shaft. That's why we didn't go full L.A. Law on her."
Girlfriends' Guide To Divorce airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. on Bravo.
