Chicago P.D.’s Tracy Spiridakos Was Shocked To Learn Of Halstead And Upton’s Impulsive Marriage – Looper

In December 2021, Jesse Lee Soffer and Tracy Spiridakos took part in a virtual interview with GiveMeMyRemoteTV on YouTube, where they spoke extensively about their “Chicago P.D.” experience so far. Naturally, this meant they took some time to address Hailey Upton’s romance with Jay Halstead and share their feelings about their sudden move to get married. “My reaction was, ‘What? Already?'” Spiridakos recalled of her reaction to first learning about “Upstead” getting married. Soffer reveals that he had a similar response to the information, with Spiridakos adding her belief that their marriage was well thought-out even if it seemed a bit soon.

Sadly, beyond their impromptu nuptials, “Chicago P.D.” didn’t get to do a whole lot with Upton and Halstead as a married couple. After helping build “Chicago P.D.” from the ground up starting in Season 1, Jesse Lee Soffer elected to leave the role of Halstead behind during Season (via Entertainment Weekly). In response to this bombshell announcement, Tracy Spiridakos took to Instagram to wish her co-star well in his future endeavors and express her appreciation for him. “You’re the greatest onscreen husband a girl could ask for,” she wrote, closing out her post with #UpsteadForever.

The married Upstead on “Chicago P.D.” came and went almost as quickly as their dating phase. Nevertheless, seeing them get hitched will endure as a highlight of the show — one that both Tracy Spiridakos and Jesse Lee Soffer are unlikely to forget.
