Having witnessed how his uncle Nicky and Edie are in love with each other, Kevin was driven by the mood and tried to hold Cassidy’s hand during an ice cream run but she pulled away. Cassidy bombarded him with harsh realities that he has been “blowing up women’s lives for the better part of two decades and he’s “a big handsome wrecking ball.”

“I’m too messed up already. Leave me in peace,” she told Kevin to end up things between them.

Although it was a bitter split for Cassidy and Kevin, it seems a happily ever after is still on the line as actress Jennifer Morrison confirmed it wasn’t her last episode.

Morrison also hinted at a possible happily after for the two when she confessed: “I think what she’s clear on is that she doesn’t want to not have him in her life.”
