'Killing Eve' Season 2: Niko Polastri's marriage is in shambles and his life might be in danger too

At the very end of season 1, we saw Eve and Niko's relationship saturated with mistrust and lack of faith and eventually, Niko leaves their apartment. So, what's next for the two?

Killing Eve's season 1 finale left off at a crossroads, where the titular MI6 agent Eve Polastri had just stabbed her target, the psychopath assassin Villanelle, whom she had also grown extremely obsessed with. But that wasn't the only crisis fronting Sandra Oh's character Eve, as there were also subliminal hints about her marriage going to shambles.

This is extremely concerning because Eve was married to Niko Polastri - one of the only normal characters on the show - something that raises the question about what lies ahead for the caring husband that we saw in Owen McDonell's Niko. There might be a lot of questions surrounding Eve that are yet to be answered after season 1, but out of them, the most burning one happens to be her marriage.
