Netflix Finally Shuts Down Jenna Ortega & Emma Myers Dating Rumors — ‘Wednesday’ Creators Scrap Lesbian Romance Plot 😱🔥
After months of wild fan speculation, Netflix has spoken — putting an end to the viral rumors linking Jenna Ortega and Emma Myers off-screen. The streaming giant and ‘Wednesday’ creators have officially ruled out any same-sex romance storyline between the two leads, leaving fans stunned and debates raging online.
👇 Here’s what really went down…
Fans of Netflix’s smash hit series, Wednesday, have finally addressed long-running speculation the two lead characters are in love.
Sorry, Wednesday and Enid fans, it’s not happening and most likely never will.
While there are plenty of fans who tune into Netflix’s Wednesday in hopes that Jenna Ortega‘s titular character and her mismatched Nevermore Academy roommate, Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers), will one day see the light and realise they love each other, series creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar say that is not in the cards, per Decider.
“It’s a show about female friendship and people can read into it whatever they want, which is great. I mean, that’s the beauty of television, is people can take ownership, but they’re very much friends,” Gough said when asked if they might ever explore a romance between the fan-favourite characters. “It’s really a show exploring that female friendship.”

On TikTok, one can throw a stone and find an edit or fan art devoted to “Wenclair,” the ship name of the two characters, with some videos racking up millions of likes from hopeful viewers.
It’s become so ubiquitous online, in fact, that Ortega and Myers have personally fielded questions about their characters’ sexuality and relationship to the LGBTQ+ community.
Adding onto what Gough said, Millar said they’ve always set out to centre Wednesday and Enid around “the idea of sisterhood and what that means,” and that while it may not be romantic in nature, it is something special that these diametrically opposed teens would find a deep connection in each other’s presence.
“It’s amazing that they’ve been embraced in that way. I think it’s something that’s very special, unique about that,” Millar said. “You have a show that is about, at its core, these two teenage girls who need each other and have found that connection. And they’re very, very different.”
As for what comes next for Wednesday after the Season 2 Part 1 cliffhanger and the importance of keeping Wednesday and Enid’s friendship at the heart of the show, keep reading for Decider’s full interview with Gough and Millar.

DECIDER: I want to start by asking about the timeline from Season 1 to Season 2. There’s been a lot of backlash over the three-year wait. What is your response to those critics?
