Mega Buzz: Who Is Severide's New Love Interest on Chicago Fire?

This article, Mega Buzz: Who Is Severide's New Love Interest on Chicago Fire?, originally appeared on TVGuide.com.

Chicago Fire's Kelly Severide (Taylor Kinney) has romantic history with characters on both Chicago P.D. and Chicago Med, but this season, he's finding a brand-new love interest in an unexpected place.

"He's back to fling mode," executive producer Matt Olmstead tells TVGuide.com. "Part of the ramifications of getting demoted is that he has to go to this manager trainee course that is obligatory. Sure enough, he meets someone, played by Rachel Nichols, who's sent there because she's a problem employee at the law firm she works at. So, there's a little romance that happens there that turns into a complication down the road."

So what about Chicago Med's April (Yaya DaCosta) now that she's sticking around Chicago? "That was a culmination of a longtime friendship," Olmstead says. "They just wanted to know what it was like."
