Her energy levels have also impacted her work schedule with her podcast, Two T’s in a Pod, which she co-hosts with “Real Housewives of Orange County” cast member, Tamra Judge. “I am taking it week by week right now with how I am feeling,” she said. “Y’all know I love doing it, but I have to listen to my body.”

Season 12 of Chicago P.D. has taken the series into darker, more emotional territory than ever before. The Intelligence Unit, led by Sergeant Hank Voight, is facing challenges that strike at both their professional and personal cores. Each episode feels heavier, more urgent, and undeniably gripping, reminding fans why the show continues to dominate the police drama genre after more than a decade on air.
The season opened with Adam Ruzek’s long-awaited recovery after being shot at the end of Season 11. His return brought a wave of hope, but that optimism quickly dissolved when it became clear that the trauma he endured has left deep emotional scars. Ruzek’s relationship with Kim Burgess, which fans have rooted for since the early seasons, is now under strain as both officers struggle to balance their duty and their hearts.
Meanwhile, Voight is battling his own inner demons. With new crimes testing his moral compass, the veteran sergeant finds himself torn between doing what’s legal and what’s right. The writers have brilliantly used Voight’s turmoil to explore complex themes about loyalty, justice, and the cost of leadership.
Adding to the drama is the arrival of a new rookie officer, whose unconventional methods clash with the team’s established rhythm. The tension within the unit has never felt higher — and the stakes have never been more personal.
Visually, the show continues to impress with its gritty cinematography and emotionally charged performances. Patrick John Flueger (Ruzek) and Marina Squerciati (Burgess) deliver some of their most powerful work to date, and Jason Beghe’s portrayal of Voight remains magnetic.
As fans flood social media with theories about upcoming episodes, one thing is certain: Chicago P.D. Season 12 isn’t afraid to take risks. The line between heroism and corruption has never been thinner — and viewers are loving every second of it.
