Abbott Elementary<\/em> blindsided viewers with a shocking split.<\/p>\n

Through the Wednesday, April 8, episode of the hit ABC series, Gregory (Tyler James Williams<\/strong>) and Janine (Quinta Brunson<\/strong>) argued over plans for an upcoming couples\u2019 trip. Janine then broached the topic of a break up and while their decision wasn\u2019t seen, Brunson confirmed off screen that the fictional couple have parted ways.<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody saw it coming. I believe that\u2019s an awesome time to throw a stone on the settled earth. It was something I thought of from the start of this season,\u201d she told The Hollywood Reporter<\/em><\/a>. \u201cThey\u2019ve been in a relationship for some time now, and we\u2019ve seen them be really great and undergo the honeymoon phase, but I desired to get under the surface somewhat bit about what might be occurring with these characters and the way, in relationships, things like this occur.\u201d<\/p>\n

Brunson desired to tell a sensible story.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe see it day-after-day \u2014 couples who look form of perfect from the skin. There will be things occurring in that we don\u2019t learn about, that they discover inside their relationship,\u201d she continued. \u201cWe talked about this rather a lot within the room about relationships and past relationships, current relationships, the way you never know. It might be this one little thing that leads you into an argument.\u201d<\/p>\n

The actress added: \u201cThis small thing was actually a catalyst for possibly some larger discussions that must occur between two people who find themselves attempting to spend loads of time with one another and possibly their lives together.\u201d<\/p>\n

While teasing the remaining of the season, Brunson addressed the possibilities of Janine finding love elsewhere.<\/p>\n
