“I spent a lot of time focusing on what was in his apartment rather than what wasn’t there,” Williams said. “I learned how much Gregory cares about the things he cares about. Gregory is someone who will really dedicate himself to a hobby or process if it piques his interest, and I think his home and the way he entertains reflects that.”

One person who has already seen the inside of Gregory’s apartment is Janine, his fellow teacher at Abbott Elementary School. The apartment was once Gregory’s bachelor pad, and now he has to share this space with someone he cares deeply about. Williams also shared his thoughts on the matter.

“Every bachelor ends up here at some point. Gregory has to learn that his home has to be more than comfortable for him,” Williams said. “He’s in a relationship with a woman he loves and he really wants to make room for her. It’s just a question of how?”
