Steve Schirripa, who portrays the charming and loyal Anthony, recently opened up about the potential for a romance between Anthony and Erin, offering some insight into what fans can expect from the pair as the show wraps up.
The Longstanding Relationship Between Anthony and Erin
Throughout the series, Anthony and Erin have shared a strong bond built on years of working together at the New York District Attorney’s office. They have supported each other through both professional and personal challenges, and their chemistry has been undeniable. While Erin has faced several romantic entanglements over the years, Anthony has remained a steady and dependable figure in her life, offering a different kind of companionship that fans have come to appreciate.
Their relationship, however, has always stayed in the realm of friendship, leaving viewers to wonder whether there might be a future for them beyond their professional ties. Schirripa has acknowledged that many fans have speculated about the possibility of a romance, but it’s clear that Anthony and Erin’s connection is something much deeper than mere flirtation. The duo has always demonstrated a level of trust and understanding that goes beyond the typical romantic storyline, which is one of the reasons their relationship is so compelling.
