“Mads and I have been working together now for 30 episodes, and we made a promise to each other before we even started dating that the work was always going to come first,” Chase told Entertainment Weekly on February 3. “And that no matter what happens in our personal lives, and the ways that life sometimes takes you in different directions, that we're always going to honor the work. That stayed 100 percent truthful this season.”
Madelyn added that she and Chase have “always shown up for each other when it comes to work and this show,” and that doesn’t change for season 3.
“We had a working relationship before we had a personal relationship, and our job from day one has always been to leave the show better than we found it,” she continued. “I'm really, really happy and I'm very proud of the work this season, and I'm incredibly grateful for my co-stars and their professionalism and just how talented each and every one of them are.”
Madelyn and Chase’s OBX characters, Sarah and John B, are still madly in love in the upcoming season — so much so that showrunner Josh Pate hinted to EW that there’s “an expansion and an intensification” that is “going to expand on their love affair with shocking turns.”
Pogue hive, get ready. Season 3 of Outer Banks premieres on Netflix on February 23.
