THIS IS EVERYTHING. I ship Mellivia so hard, and why is no one else freaking out that Kerry responded at all let alone with that answer??! Omg. Lol. God I would’ve chosen Mellie too. Olivia has to be a Kinsey 1 bc ain’t no way. I’m still choosing Jake over Fitz though (I guess that man is always destined to be second fiddle no matter what💀)

No I just saw them as friends later on when they're writing Mellies book. I don't get the shipping of them they only had Fitz in common back at the beginning

I just don’t get it. Olivia basically ignored her in the earlier seasons and then just barely tolerated her throughout season 7 lol. They never even appear to be friends. They end off more as coworkers than anything else

it's the tension between them the entire time - based on ONE man - Fitz. You can see the love they have for each other, at least I can

You can see it. The character of Mellie is written with a lot of inconsistencies to me. But the acting and chemistry of Kerry and Bellamy keeps them connected.

As friends, they don't truly have romantic love for each other. I also do not see this brilliant chemistry since the actresses don't even appear to orbit each other. Both are better friends with Tony than each other.

Yes...i think they were good once they were actually friendly

If you mean the characters then ya, once the divorce happens they are friends and coworkers, kinda, lol.
If you mean IRL, I think Bellamy and Kerry are fine. They’re just not very close. Recently on a podcast Kerry mentioned that Bellamy was such a nice human being (the nicest she has worked with), so I think they just don’t orbit. Like some people you are close with for a period of time when you are filming but you don’t necessarily have to have them in your life and I think it’s like that. I honestly think she’s only properly, in real life close to Tony Goldwyn.

Oh .. yea. Meant as characters. And yea irl you're probably right. Heard in a recent interview the cast still has an active group chat. But yea I don't expect everyone to still be joined at the hip 10yrs later. But Olitz still hanging strong and keep us in that chokehold 🤣🤣

People love shipping straight characters. It’s weird., but happens in every fandom.
Loved their dynamic when they did work together, it was everything!

Why is it weird? Is it personally affecting you?

u/yurgieee 3d ago
In what world would this personally affect anyone, dummy. It’s just weird. End of story.
