Young Sheldon might officially be finished, but the fun facts just keep on rolling in — with one explaining why two stars have such “strong chemistry” on set.
Fans would be forgiven for still getting emotional about theYoung Sheldon Season 7 endingtwo weeks after the fact, withGeorge’s deathstaying in the forefront of people’s minds.
At the same time, previous episodes are being picked apart by the Sheldom (Sheldon fandom, if you will), leading to an amazing discovery — Pastor Jeff (Matt Hobby) and wife Robin (Mary Grill) are actually married in real life.
“This explains their chemistry,” one fansaid, with a secondagreeing: “That is what I thought too!! There seems to be this strong connection between the two that was beyond just acting.”
A thirdweighed in: “Okay lol this makes sense. Saw a video of them with the cast and they looked so close and intimate that I was confused since I read that Jeff’s actor is married.”
After his first marriage to absent wife Selena broke down in Season 2, Jeff is introduced to police officer Robin after accidentally running a red light in Medford. The two quickly become obsessed with each other, leading Jeff to nearly abandon his faith in order to be intimate with Robin.
Instead, the pair get married quickly, eventually moving in next door to the Coopers and having a baby. While Jeff remains a series regular, Robin is absent in Seasons 4-6, appearing once again inYoung Sheldon Season 7.
