Why is Delilah not on ‘A Million Little Things’?

Many viewers want to know whether Delilah will return to A Million Little Things when the show comes back in 2022. In season 3, Delilah leaves her children to travel to France with her father. However, when the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic hit, Delilah could no longer travel home to Boston. All season long, fans wondered where Delilah went and if she might ever return.

The mother, who lost her husband in season 1, told her children in the season 3 finale that she felt happier in France. Everything at home reminds her of Jon Dixon (Ron Livingston), so she wanted to head back to France. In the opening episode of season 4, Delilah received a call that her father’s health had taken a turn for the worst. Danny Dixon (Chance Hurstfield) opted to be there for his mother and go to France. Viewers will only see glimpses of Delilah.

What to expect when ‘A Million Little Things’ returns in 2022

Although there is no press release yet with information about A Million Little Things Season 4 Episode 9, there is an informative promo.

“You had a date the other day, didn’t you,” Theo (Tristan Byon) asks Catherine (Grace Park) in the promo.

She tells Theo that she did go out, but the young boy wants to know if his father, Eddie (David Giuntoli), knows about the date. It’s an odd interaction for a preview unless there’s something more going on with Theo. Maybe he knows about Eddie’s date with Anna Benoit (Erin Karpluk)? We will have to wait and see what happens when Feb. 23 rolls around.

Meanwhile, Eddie tries to get Rome out of bed. However, the filmmaker insists he is not getting out of bed. The most interesting part of the new promo is that Maggie awkwardly answers a call from Cam. When he asks who she is talking to, Maggie doesn’t know how to respond. She’s driving with Gary to Albany and didn’t tell Cam about her driver. Will Maggie and Cam break up? Will Gary try to rekindle the relationship with Maggie?
