Molly Gordon reveals that she is happy Claire and Carmy broke up at the end of The Bear season 2. The series returned to Hulu in June and this time, followed its young chef as he attempted to turn The Original Beef of Chicagoland into a new restaurant. When Gordon's character, an old friend of Carmy's, reconnects with him, the two begin expressing feelings for each other.
"Jeremy stayed around for that. He was shooting his side of things inside the refrigerator a couple days later, but he came to be on the other side to say those lines with me. I’m a woman who has gone through a couple breakups, so it felt both cathartic and sad. To hear someone say that they don’t deserve happiness, or deserve to give happiness, is a horrific statement... I’ve stayed in relationships and tried to fix someone like that. So I was happy that Claire just leaves.
