Season 12 changes
The addition of Turner comes on the heels of some significant changes within the ‘Chicago P.D.’ cast. Season 11 saw the exit of Tracy Spiridakos, who portrayed Detective Hailey Upton for eight seasons. Spiridakos’ departure was a major shift for the series, as her character had become a central figure. Earlier in the series, Jesse Lee Soffer also left his role as Jay Halstead, who was Hailey’s ex-husband. These departures have created space for new characters and storylines, paving the way for Turner’s introduction.
As the new season approaches, fans are buzzing with speculation about potential new developments in the show’s romantic dynamics. One of the most talked-about theories is whether Yara Page will become a romantic interest for Kevin Atwater, played by LaRoyce Hawkins. The chemistry between Turner’s character and Atwater could be a focal point, but until the season airs, this remains a tantalizing possibility.
