"He's out of the house, which is nice," said Diaz.
Ashmore agreed with her assessment regarding their characters' living situation.
"That is very important. Very important for Angela [for him] to be out of the house," said Ashmore.
The career shift introduces dynamic legal friction back into the couple's marriage.
"What I do know and what I love about what Alexi [Hawley, showrunner] and our writers do is that they have a nice push and pull with Wesley and Angela.
And I'm excited now that Wesley's back on as a defense attorney, some of that sort of chippiness and the sparring that happened between them, now we're on opposite sides again of the law that hopefully we'll get to incorporate a little bit of that into the relationship, into the marriage because it's always fun knowing that they always come back to center and find a way through their arguments," said Ashmore.
Diaz confirmed upcoming storylines involving their children and guest appearances alongside Mekia Cox, who plays Nyla Harper.
