If the producers of Ugly Betty wanted to increase interest by whipping up controversy about the show’s romantic endgame, well, executive producer Silvo Horta put an end to it rather quickly.
(and foolishly, IMHO)
According to TV Guide Magazine, Horta wants to reunite Betty and Henry (Christopher Gorham), if indeed season four is the final season.  Guide says Horta believes Henry "is the true love of Betty’s life."
Hey, I’m just the messenger here. 
Let me first say this:  I don’t think a Benry pairing would be the worst ever ending for the show (that would be if they …read more

This is absolutely astonishing news: Henry (Chris Gorham) is coming back to Ugly Betty!  Ausiello breaks the news:
Christopher Gorham has closed a deal to reprise his role as Betty’s ex-love Henry, setting the stage for a geektastic showdown with her current beau, Matt (Daniel Eric Gold).
Un-freakin-believable.  There’s more:
Ugly Betty creator Silvio Horta confirms to me exclusively that Gorham — who’s currently trying to stay alive on CBS’ Harper’s Island — will reappear in the show’s two-hour season finale on May 21 when Betty runs into Henry and his new girlfriend Chloe (played by Gossip Girl’s Dream Walker) in …read more

It would appear that at least one piece of the Ugly Betty love triangle is settled. One of the actors who plays one of Betty’s star-crossed lovers Henry and Gio, has told TV Guide that he won’t be moving to New York:
“The show is moving, I am not,” he said at the SKYY Vodka screening for “Sex and the City” on May 29.
I’ll tell you which one in a minute, after a jump.
I wonder what this will mean for the show, considering the nastiness that happened in May in every corner of the Ugly Betty web universe. People chose …read more

Well, Kristin from EOnline answers one of my Ugly Betty season finale questions:
Anna in Salt Lake City: I need some Ugly Betty scoop. I am personally a huge fan of a Betty-Gio hookup. Any hints as to when or if that is going to happen? I can tell you that Ugly Betty is taking the Henry-Betty-Gio triangle down to the wire. One of the boys proposes in the finale, and the other one invites her to travel with him. In true TV fashion, at the end of the episode, we have no idea whom she leaves with, and we’ll have …read more

Believe it or not, there’s other things going on in the Ugly Betty season finale (episode 2.18 – “Jump”) than the hyper-reported appearance by Lindsay Lohan. (Seriously, if you doubt that the casting of Lohan will be a ratings bonanza, just pay attention to web postings; it’s unreal!).
Most importantly, it would appear that the GioBenry love triangle is going to come to a head in this episode. ABC released the synopsis today, and the hints we’ve had the last few weeks seem to be leading to a major cliff-hanger:
Just as Gio makes Betty an incredibly romantic offer, …read more

There is a GREAT interview with America Ferrera in USA Today, in which she talks about her life the past few months, and the direction of the show. Apparently, it wasn’t just Silvio Horta who had been upset with the direction the show had been taking.
“I’ve always loved the show, but we went through some creative shifts,” says Ferrera. “Because so much was happening in each episode, there wasn’t enough time given to certain story arcs.”
I’ve felt this way for a while. I’m hoping …read more

We’ve got a new poll up, and this one is pretty important, at least to me. This strike-shortened season of Ugly Betty has had two major story lines: Wilhelmina’s attempts to take over Meade Publications, and Betty’s romantic life. In the romantic department, most of the action has been between Betty and Henry, but Silvio Horta and the producers have not quite been subtle in presenting Gio as another option. (There have been a few moments between Daniel and Betty, …read more

Our favorite insider, TV Guide’s Ausiello, gives us the lowdown on spoilers we’ve previously told you about here at Ugly Betty News.
Wait, does that mean that we scooped Ausiello? I’ll be doggoned. You don’t see that very often. Of course, all we told you was some of the major plot points of the shows in the coming weeks. Ausiello gives us some concrete casting confirmation.
The question he answered:
Question: Any Ugly Betty scoop? Please? April 24 is so… far… away… [Wheeze, cough].— Meg

Attention Benry fans: Don’t shoot the messenger.
There is an interesting thread at The Bachelor and The Butterfly (a Detty site) about a quote from Silvio Horta concerning the future of the Betty/Henry relationship.
Horta told US Magazine that in the remaining episodes this year to “expect an ‘expiration date’ on Betty (America Ferrera) and Henry’s (Christopher Gorham) romance.” He says, “We’re going to start dealing with who she should be with.”
The poster attributes (I think) Television Without Pity, and ultimately US magazine, but I haven’t been able to track a hard link with this quote in it, …read more
