Jessica Williams Joins 'Love Life' Season 2 with William Jackson Harper!

The second season of the HBO Max series Love Life will feature an entirely new cast and more stars have been announced!

We already knew that The Good Place‘s William Jackson Harper will be replacing Anna Kendrick as the main focus of the season and now it’s been announced that Jessica Williams will play his love interest.

William plays “Marcus Watkins as as he comes out of a years-long relationship with the woman he thought was going to be his person. The rug pulled out from under him, he is plunged back into the search for the romantic fulfillment that he thought he had already found.”

Deadline reports that Jessica will play “Mia Hines, the beautiful, intelligent and somewhat unknowable object of Marcus’s affection. After forming a connection early in the season, she challenges Marcus’s ideas about himself and how he moves through the world.”

Jessica is best known for her work in 2 Dope Queens and Booksmart.

Also joining the cast is Chris “Comedian CP” Powell as “the charming and gregarious Yogi, who is committed to his girlfriend and two children, but lives vicariously through Marcus’s exploits, offering unsolicited advice.”

Anna Kendrick and some other actors from season two will appear occasionally in season two.

Chris and Heidi Powell have called it quits after 10 years of marriage.

The Extreme Weight Loss couple shared the news on Instagram this afternoon with their fans.

“We have some difficult news to share with you today, and hope it’s received with the compassion and love we need right now,” Chris shared in a joint statement. “It is with much thought, prayer, and love that Heidi and I have decided to separate as husband and wife.”

He continued, “While this may come as quite a shock to many of you, please know that this decision was made over the course of many months on a quest to create the best dynamic for our modern family, and we are now in a great place.”

“While we feel an immense amount of sadness from the ending of one chapter, there is also an overwhelming amount of hope, peace, and love as we move into this next chapter with a slightly different-looking relationship.”

Chris and Heidi have two children together, son Cash, 8, and daughter Ruby, 6. The two were also parents to Heidi‘s first two children with her first husband, Derek Solomon.

The split comes after another high-profile couple confirmed their own breakup.
