For Shameless, the addition comes after the series from John Wells wrapped its seventh season by saying farewell to the Gallaghers’ absentee mother, Monica, as the family moved on without her. That included Fiona continuing to explore her entrepreneurial side with the purchase of an apartment building after meeting Ryan (Barry Sloane) at a Southside Young Professionals networking event.
A return date for Shameless has not yet been determined.
