Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage centers around an age-gap romance — but do stars Emily Osment and Montana Jordan feel the years between them?
“Not really, to be honest,” Osment, 34, exclusively told Us Weekly at CBS Fest on Wednesday, April 15. “There’s a few TV shows that he doesn’t know about but other than that, it’s kind of it.”
Osment pointed out that her onscreen husband is mature — and it helps that he is already a dad at 23. While looking ahead at the second half of season 2, Osment teased where Georgie and Mandy’s relationship could end up.
“They really love each other. There’s no doubt about that,” she noted. “And I think it’s pretty clear that they have really great chemistry, and you want them to work. We’re all hoping that the first marriage is the same to people as the second and third [marriage].”
‘Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage’ Cast’s Quotes About Couple’s Age Gap
Viewers originally met Georgie and Mandy on The Big Bang Theory prequel series Young Sheldon, which aired from 2017 to 2024. As The Big Bang Theory viewers know, it has been mentioned that Georgie has been married several times. This has subsequently concerned fans rooting for Georgie and Mandy, but Osment has urged viewers not to give up hope.
“Just personally, I hope it takes them a really long time to get there,” Osment exclusively told Us in December 2025 about her hope for the hit CBS show. “Hence the title, everybody knows that that’s coming at some point — and it keeps people watching a little longer.”
Osment prefers a lengthy build-up, adding, “Personally, for me, I’d like to see it have some legs before they break up.”
Despite also being “worried” about the fictional couple’s future, Osment chose to focus on the positive, adding, “I am saying this [based on] nothing at all. We get the scripts about 12 hours before we read it at the table. So we have no idea what’s coming down the pipeline ever.”
Controversial TV Couples With Major Age Gaps: From ‘Friends’ to ‘Gilmore Girls’
Osment acknowledged at the time that Georgie and Mandy’s age gap could play a role in their marriage falling apart. “We can maybe assume it’s because of the age difference. It could be that and a whole bundle of other stuff,” she noted.
The actress credited the sitcom for telling grounded stories about the ups and downs couples face in a marriage.
“It could be anything, but I have this inkling that it may have something to do with him soon becoming the tire king of Texas,” she added. “We know from The Big Bang Theory that he’s the most successful tire God, basically. When people become really successful in their job, sometimes it can affect their home life.”
Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage airs on CBS Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET and episodes are currently streaming on Paramount+.
