After almost three years of break, Jennifer Love Hewitt returned to acting with 9-1-1

According to her, she took an intentional break and wanted to learn how to be a mom. While talking about it, she said:

 I needed to take some time for myself and to grieve my mother and needed to become a new mom; I needed to learn how to be a wife. I’ve really enjoyed the break, and I feel like now, having gone back into acting, it’s really done a beautiful thing for me in that it’s made everything that I do in my acting/entertainment life not less important but less like, “It’s everything all the time,” like it used to be.

After the kidnapping, Maddie confessed to being in love with her boyfriend which is played by Kenneth Choi. While talking about her character’s love story, Hewitt said:

‘Here’s what I can promise you, there shouldn’t for the rest of the season be any doubt that those two people are a couple and that they’re together. ‘I think this episode solidifies the ‘Oh my gosh, we’ve almost lost each other twice. And we can’t lose each other again’ kind of moment in their relationship. So I think what’s beautiful about this is now you’ll get to see a lot of joy between them.’
