'Manifest': Jared and Lourdes are starting a family, and Lourdes' days could be numbered

Jared has moved on with Lourdes, and they are about to start a family but Michaela will probably set out on her own new path.

Fans have been rooting for Michaela to finally get back with Jared but it looks like that is not going to happen. Following the aftermath of the sudden re-appearance of Montego Air Flight 828, NBC's Jeff Rake-directed show 'Manifest' has had some extremely strong sub-plots when it comes to couple dynamics.

Starring alongside Melissa Roxburgh (Michaela) and JR Ramirez (Jared), Josh Dallas' Ben and Athena Karkanis' Grace have equally fascinated fans with their onscreen chemistry and complications. 

While fans have already declared that Grace will leave Ben for Danny, they cannot get over the fact that Michaela and Jared might not end up together. One Reddit fan commented, "My money is on she ultimately breaks up friends marriage and ends up with Jared." However, after the eighth episode, it was revealed that Lourdes is now expecting, and Jared would probably soon begin a family with her. It made Michaela realize that she can no longer tag Jared along with her, now that he has a family. So, will she be alone? Or who will be her partner now that Jared is off the book?
