Kate's strong character and the underlying tension between the duo has us even more excited for Season 2, if that's possible.

Daphne's leading the way in terms of knowing what love is, what it means, and what marriage means, and she's trying to pass on that knowledge to Anthony." "She is the rock of the siblings in this season, which is quite nice to play. "She's running the family because she's the one who's settled now," Dynevor added. Now Daphne gets to stick her nose in his." "It's a bit of a reverse of their season 1 dynamic, in terms of Anthony sticking his nose in Daphne's business. She's now a devoted wife and, of course, still a loyal sister to her seven siblings," show creator Chris Van Dusen told EW. "Daphne remains a vital part of our story.

As I like to say, the idea that we would write Regé to stand around in the background doesn’t make any sense at all to me. “My assumption of what people knew of romance novels was … I overestimated a great deal.”Īnd while Page has teased the possibility for a potential cameo in future seasons, unfortunately for some fans, Rhimes has said she doesn't think he will return to the series. “I don’t think I expected everybody to have such a reaction to it,” she told Variety.
