Fans were delighted with episode 16, which saw Maya loved up with her wife, with one person tweeting: "We are getting giddy giggly Maya back, I have been waiting for this #station19," while another fan added: "Let’s be honest the show isn’t the show without you Carina so come back #station19." 

Danielle previously opened up about their journey in season six, telling shondaland.com: "Maya and Carina [Stefania Spampinato] are rekindled and falling in love again, and learning how to date and learning to trust each other, specifically Carina learning to trust Maya again.

@And that’s not going to be something that’s easy to do. So, I’m glad that the show took their time to play out that storyline. I think it’s going to make everyone very happy. And me and Stefani are very happy to be able to do happy scenes together instead of a whole season of yelling and crying and being upset on camera because it’s the exact opposite of how we are off camera. It’s nice to go back to the old ways." 

The star also once hinted at her hopes that the characters would become parents one day, saying: "I would really love to see Maya and Carina become parents. I think the audience is really ready for that storyline to play out. [...] But I would love to see Maya and Carina tackle being parents in their next chapter." What do you think?

In a statement to Variety, Zoanne said: "I feel incredibly honored to be entrusted with this dynamic and relevant show alongside Peter. The diversity of the cast, writers, and crew in addition to their enormous talent and dedication to their craft makes this a thrilling adventure to undertake. 

"We are excited about the stories we get to tell using this worldwide platform and both understand the responsibility of being able to share them as we reach into millions of homes weekly. Many thanks to Krista and Shondaland for this opportunity and their faith in us."
