Yeah, when Jennifer says things like this you know she doesn’t really like Emma and Hook together, in my opinion. She just doesn’t know what to say about it and there is no in depth analysis to have. She has to say they are in love with each other, but she knows it doesn’t really make sense, but she can’t say that either.
I think she commented on it just fine. It’s hard, they work at it, it’s not easy. Like when couples go to therapy to fix things. They are just constantly fixing things haha. She’s saying it’s real because it isn’t easy, because it’s never easy. Whether you agree with it or not, that is what she’s saying. It’s not like she froze and said no comment…. Just trolling trying to find instances where the actors don’t even believe in what the show is telling us. There are much better examples of this than this in my opinion. This seemed fine to me.
