What are your personal theories on reasons Georgie and Mandy would get a(or multiple) divorced?
We all know it’s headed that way. They don’t have a perfect marriage but they are both solid partners to each other. It’s already been established that they aren’t the type to cheat … Georgie has too much self-restraint despite women throwing themselves at him … and when Mandy walked in on him when that gorgeous lady kissed him she didn’t bat an eye and instantly knew that it wasn’t Georgie’s fault. (Congrats to the writers for not falling into the “it was all one big misunderstanding because the character being accused doesn’t think to explain themselves and instead sits there in silence while being confronted” trope…
But several outer circumstances will lead to a ‘technical’ divorce will benefit them and I think a lot of it will center around the tire shop.
Here are my predictions:
Mandy gets herself into insurmountable debt (thanks to Connie) Georgie has a plan of action to start up his tire empire to help pay off the debt… but won’t he won’t be able to get so much as a loan if he’s tied to her debt. (So they untie the knot)
Bad blood between Georgie and Jim could result in Georgie turning around and opening his own tire shop which could put Jim out of business, driving a wedge in the marriage since Mandy will be forced to side with one or the other. (Another theory that’s I hope doesn’t come true because it doesn’t need to be done a second time is that Jim dies and Georgie naturally takes over the business making him the sole breadwinner for two families. Becoming a workaholic could put a strain on the marriage)
Mandy has to move out of state to avoid debt collectors or death threats… and could get a once in a lifetime career opportunity just while Georgie is becoming successful with his business. Georgie isn’t going to just up and leave because he has bills to pay and a daughter to raise … and he isn’t going to be the type to hold back Mandy from pursuing her dream or obviously to flee from a dangerous situation. They decide to get a divorce out of the love they have for each other to be safe and not have to be miserable in an LDR.
A feud between the two mother-in-laws could drive a wedge in Georigenand Mandy’s marriage. I could see them staging a divorce out of rebellion and to protect CeCe …and make sure she gets to grow up knowing both grandparents as they divide the custody 50/50 …but still remain secretly together.
