“I lose [my late girlfriend’s daughter] Gene to [her biological father] Rick,” Jake revealed. “Rick called and Gene wants to stay in Idaho, she wants to enroll [in school] and she wants me to ship her things. I keep telling myself this will make things real, but I think I really want to stay in shock or else I might just lose it.

Arcila continued: “A lot of people are angry and a lot of people are like, 'Wait, what's going on?' What are you going to do? What is this?' But at the end of the day, we are all perfectly imperfect humans. … There are going to be a lot of changes. It's a season that definitely shows its imperfections, which I'm so excited about because we're all human. We are not perfect. We make mistakes and we all deserve forgiveness and redemption. So it’s a story of redemption.
Thieriot, 36, does not rule out a Bode and Gabriela romance – Ultimately.
“It's about finding that [storytelling] balance. You don't want total, instant gratification… [we’re] trying to extend some of it and earn those moments.

Now that he's free, that's one of the challenges,” he told We that same month. “Figuring out how to stay in a little grayness and fight through their relationship instead of just totally opening the floodgates and having it become a thing.”
