'Shameless' season 9: What's in store for Fiona and Jimmy before Emmy Rossum finally quits?

Ian Gallagher got his happy ending with the love of his life - could that mean Fiona will be reunited with Jimmy/Steve too as a sub plot to end the character's story on the show?

'Shameless' might be done with its midseason finale, but it ensured there was plenty of closure when it came to the ever so erratic, yet precious Ian Gallagher, for whom this was the last season, post-Cameron Monaghan announcing his exit from the show. While Ian got his happy ending, with the love of his life - Mickey Milkovich (Noel Fischer) finally reuniting with him as his cellmate in prison, it does leave a fair few questions about yet another character finally receiving closure with regards to unfinished love stories. The character in question here, as expected, is, of course, Fiona Gallagher, who in some way will depart the show post its ongoing season 9, as actress Emmy Rossum - who has played the role so impeccably well for almost a decade - announced her exit too ahead of the season's premiere. And that only leaves us with the most important question of all: Will Fiona and Jimmy/Steve be reunited ahead of Emmy's exit?
