NCIS Season 22: Fans Predict Jimmy Will End Romance with Jessica for a New Love!

Fans of NCIS are buzzing with speculation about the future of Jimmy Palmer (played by Brian Dietzen) in the upcoming season 22. Many are wondering if he might find a new love interest, potentially signaling the end of his relationship with Jessica Knight (portrayed by Katrina Law).

The season 21 cliffhanger saw Jessica being offered a promotion to become the new REACT chief training officer at Camp Pendleton, requiring her to relocate. With their relationship already on shaky ground, the added challenge of long-distance could be the final straw.

A popular theory on Reddit suggests that Jimmy might begin dating someone else at the office while Jessica is away. According to this theory, Jessica could return for a case only to discover that Jimmy has moved on, leading to her distress but eventual acceptance.

This speculation has sparked controversy among fans. One Reddit user disagreed with the theory, arguing that Jessica’s departure is just a plot twist and that she will not leave permanently. They believe that characters like Nick would remind her of her commitment to the team and her role as Victoria’s stepmother.

Season 22 of NCIS, set to premiere in September following its renewal in April, is eagerly anticipated by fans. Unlike the shortened 10-episode season 21, season 22 is expected to return to its usual length with around 24 episodes. Viewers are particularly excited to see how the storylines develop, especially the future of Jimmy and Jessica’s relationship.
