Grey’s Anatomy season 14 spoilers: Jackson, Maggie face uncertain future
What we do know is where the show left things off in season 13, as April made it clear to Kelly McCreary’s character that Jackson did harbor some feelings towards her. Yet, she did not offer up at the same time any validation that something more would be happening for the two of them. That’s on them of them to have the conversations and figure things out, and there could still be some insecurity there. Of course, there are also some other issues, including the fact that both parties are busy doctors preoccupied with a lot of other stuff at the moment, to the extent that romance is probably not the principal thing on either one of their minds.
In speaking about this storyline further in a new interview with TV Guide, McCreary had the following to say about the current state of things:
“April left Maggie with a lot of questions. Maggie having feelings, Jackson having feelings — that was something that had literally never crossed Maggie’s mind … What [we pick up] with is Maggie trying to find out if that’s true or not and beyond that, none of us knows.”
Are we interested in learning more about this relationship? Sure, but it’s also not at the top of our priority list since there are clearly a number of other hurdles that some of these characters need to jump through and deal with. We enjoy Grey’s Anatomy when it doesn’t force things, so let this relationship come about organically — if it happens, it happens. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t. In the end, we’re still not even sure that we should be writing off Jackson and April as a possible couple just yet. Remember that the two of them still have some essence of feelings based on what we saw this past season — they also have plenty of baggage and stuff weighing them down, but you have to think there could be a future here.
Also, remember that Grey’s Anatomy isn’t just a romance. There are likely going to be many other components to the upcoming season, whether it be medicine or some other complicated cases. This is a show that does always tackle so many different things at one time, and we don’t expect any of that to fall by the wayside strictly for romance.
