Season 10 might be the season Danny tries to date someone. Wahlberg talked about how his relationships are changing with time.

“They’ve definitely been flirting around with Danny,” Wahlberg explained to Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “I think his connection with Baez has been growing. I think the medium Maggie played by Callie Thorne has been building an interesting relationship with Danny.”

The actor avoided revealing anything about the future of the character. “So I don’t know what the future holds,” he said. “I don’t look beyond the script that I’m doing right now. I never ask what’s going to happen next with Danny. I just like to show up and be surprised because I don’t want to anticipate anything. I’d just like to discover as I go.”

It would certainly be a big step if the partners become romantic. However, some fans are rooting for it to happen. Wahlberg went on to say Danny’s sons might get involved in his love life.

“So I think Danny’s preference is one thing, but I think his two boys are going to have a vote,” he added. “I think they would have to have a say so, too. So if they had a vote, I’m not sure who they would cast it for, but it could be something entirely different for all we know.”

It looks like the partners will be getting some extra help. TV Insider reports Lovett’s character is Texas Ranger Waylon Gates and will appear in the Feb. 14 episode called “Fog of War.”

There are pictures showing Waylon and Danny intensely looking at each other. It’s possible they will butt heads. However, there are also pictures of Waylon in the precinct with Baez and Danny. The case will probably get dangerous since there are pictures of Danny and Waylon with their guns drawn.

Other characters will also be busy in the episode. Eddie (Vanessa Ray)’s partner, Officer James Addison (Justin Cunningham) accidentally shoots an undercover cop. Jamie (Will Estes) is in the hot seat with internal affairs. Frank (Tom Selleck) tries to stop an officer from quitting the job.

Wahlberg previously posted a picture of him with Lovett. He gave another teaser to the upcoming appearance.
