For Bridget, as sad as she was to see her four-season arc on The Rookie come to a close, she also has always known Monica was walking a tightrope.
“Truly, I was not surprised,” she told TV Insider in an interview published April 27. “I was thrilled that she lasted as long as she did. If you play with fire, as long as she has, eventually you’re going to get burned. And as I said everybody, I was like, she’s not on her ninth life. She’s on her 37th. She’s escaped multiple assassinations and prison time and being thrown in a woodchipper.”
So, “when her number was finally up, I wasn’t surprised,” the 44-year-old said. “I thought, ‘Fair enough.’ She’s had an amazing run, four years on this show. I’m only filled with gratitude.”
