**Chicago, IL -** “Chicago P.D.” fans can breathe a sigh of relief as the beloved cop drama gears up for its 12th season with the confirmation that the long-running couple, Burgess and Ruzek (known affectionately as “Burzek”), are still going strong.
Showrunner Gwen Sigan assured fans that the couple, who finally got engaged in Season 11, will be “pretty solid” heading into the new season. Despite the inherent drama of the police procedural, Sigan revealed that the couple will navigate the challenges of their engagement, wedding planning, and family life, all while maintaining a strong foundation for their relationship.
While the showrunner stopped short of revealing specific details about the wedding plans, she did confirm that Burgess and Ruzek are not planning on eloping.
“They have a lot going on in their independent personal lives, and so the nice thing will be that that relationship… they can keep coming back to as a foundation,” Sigan shared.
The news comes as a welcome surprise for fans who feared the couple’s happiness might be short-lived, given the often dramatic storylines in the “One Chicago” universe. “They have fought like hell, and they have gone through a lot, and they have gotten to a point where they’re in it together,” said Sigan, echoing the sentiment of many viewers.
Beyond the Burzek saga, “Chicago P.D.” is currently in the midst of writing episodes 7 and 8 of the new season. With a full season planned, fans can anticipate plenty of new adventures and challenges for the Intelligence Unit.
“Chicago P.D.” premieres on Wednesday, September 25 at 10 p.m. ET on NBC, following the season premieres of “Chicago Fire” and “Chicago Med.”
