Hillary Duff just answered a question fans were dying to get answered after the Lizzie McGuire reboot.
The entire conversation occurred while the 38-year-old was sitting on Jake Shane’s Therapuss podcast and hosting one of the most asked takes, namely whether McGuire would break up with Adam Lamberg’s character Gordo.
According to Duff herself, “I think there were just disagreements about how far we could go.” [Lizzie] and where it is, as you know, it would have been when we were filming that 30 or 31.”
“And for me, I was that age and I also felt so deeply connected to her as a character because we were the same. And I was like, oh, man, we can’t be Mary Tyler Moore, that’s not, I don’t know, it was 2023. You know what I mean?”
“There’s social media and we weren’t. I wasn’t trying to get her to wake up and smoke bongs or anything, but she was a normal 30-year-old girl, you know? So there were some things that I think just weren’t totally willing to go there.”
McGuire’s last release before this was in 2003, when the series concluded its story through The Lizzie McGuire Movie and featured her kissing Gordo.
However, the actor doesn’t believe they would have ended up together because “I don’t think they had a post about something. I think maybe they had a post about almost something. I know, again, another attempt that didn’t happen. But I think there was something with someone else that was very quick.”
“In my opinion, I like to think that she finally had something with Ethan Craft,” the star concluded.
For those who don’t know, Craft was Lizzie’s high school crush played by Clayton Snyder.
