Matthew Gray Gubler, 44, has managed to keep his love life incredibly private. Over the years, he’s been romantically linked to a few famous names, like Taylor Swift and Kat Dennings, but Gubler has never confirmed any current relationships.
For fans hoping for a peek into his personal world, he remains as tight-lipped as ever. Despite the speculation, Gubler has described himself as a romantic at heart in past interviews, which only makes fans more eager to know if he’s found 'the one.' But for now, it seems Gubler is focused on his work, including his much-awaited return to 'Criminal Minds'.
Matthew Gray Gubler's 'Criminal Minds' return comes with a twist
After missing the first two seasons of 'Criminal Minds: Evolution', Gubler is finally stepping back into Reid’s shoes, even if it’s only for one episode. Showrunner Erica Messer shared how much the team has wanted him back but explained that timing was the biggest challenge. “It just hasn’t worked out timing-wise. I can’t speak to [season 3] because we’re not there yet. But it’s not for lack of trying,” Messer said, as reported by the Us Magazine.
Reid’s absence on the show has been explained by him being away on a special assignment with Matt Simmons (Daniel Henney). While fans haven’t seen him, Messer made it clear that the character is still an important part of the team. “We can’t not acknowledge who’s not here because they’re huge parts of why we’re all still here,” she said.
With 'Criminal Minds: Evolution' now streaming on Paramount+, we can't wait to see Gubler return, if only for a brief moment, and already are hoping for more. For more such updates, stay tuned to MEAWW.
