Stark: Attraction Spurred Buck’s ‘9-1-1’ Tension with Eddie

After a roller-coaster of emotions portrayed in the popular television Show “9-1-1” when the charming firefighter Evan “Buck” Buckley (played by Oliver Stark) came out as bisexual, the fans were left begging: What’s truly going on between Buck and his charismatic partner Eddie Diaz (played by Ryan Guzman)?

Buck, known for his winning smile and courageous spirit, emerged as a crowd-favorite right from the start of the series. His antics, coupled with undying loyalty towards his team, made him an endearing figure. He’s also cemented as an LGBTQ+ icon after bravely coming out as bisexual, becoming an inspiration for many.

Recently, Buck has found himself involved in a tense romance with Tommy (played by Lou Ferrigno Jr.). Despite this, many fans have wanted Buck to end up in a relationship with Eddie and have been speculating that the real reason Buck didn’t get along with Eddie back in Season 2 was because of a deep-down attraction.

In a soon-to-be-released interview on the podcast I’ve Never Said This Before With Tommy DiDario, Stark confirms this.

“I think that’s probably quite a wise way to look at it,” Stark said. “Eddie — and Ryan, who plays him — is obviously an attractive man … The introduction of his character is literally Buck turning in slow motion, and ‘What a Man’ is the soundtrack that’s playing, so I think if we look back at that moment, yes, there is definitely an element of that.”

Stark continues: “Not knowing how to how to deal and process those feelings, [Buck] kind of sectioned [them] off into some kind of jealousy and insecurity about himself. Look, Buck was the young, gung-ho, action-hero-y kind of guy of the 118, and then suddenly there was Eddie, who could do everything he could do and was also a single father and an Army vet and was all these really cool things. So yeah, I could absolutely [in] see some of those early moments where they were butting heads, that there was some kind of feeling there that Buck didn’t quite understand … and obviously, they’ve grown so much closer now.”

So may there be a romance between Buck and Eddie later in the show? “Who knows?” Stark answers.

The potential romance between Buck and Eddie has indeed set the pace for more comprehensive love representation. While the tension between them continues to leave fans on the edge of their seats, this captivating storyline might pave the way for more nuanced portrayals in the future. Until then, fans eagerly wait to see how this intense relationship unfolds.

NFL Hope Byron Perkins and BF Prove Love is the Best Play

Out athlete Byron Perkins, a promising figure in the world of football and the only open gay player in the 2024 NFL draft, has been tipping hearts and sparking interests not just because of his talent, but also due to his heart-warming relationship with boyfriend James Dunn.

Perkins, who has been playing football since high school, came out to the public a few years ago, proving that dedication and a loving support system can go hand in hand with being authentic, even during the most challenging times. Ever since, Perkins has been challenging stereotypes and busting barriers on the field, all while proudly bearing his identity.

Unfortunately Perkins status as an HBCU player, makes it quite unlikely that he will advance to NFL as only six HBCU players have made it over the last four drafts.

“I just want a fair shot,” Perkins told OutSports. “I can only hope to have a sliver of an opportunity. If I go to a free agency situation, even uttering ‘National Football League,’ that’s a privilege. These guys dedicate their lives to being excellent every day. I’ll let the cards fall how they fall and let God lead me in the direction I need to go to be successful.”

Apart from his sports prowess, Perkins and Dunn’s social media PDA has been gaining attention lately, with cute photos on Instagram charming all their followers. Captioned endearingly, their posts evidently depict a couple blissfully in love. On the last Valentine’s Day, Dunn posted a photo of them together, writing, “With you, every day feels like Valentine’s Day, my Tesoro!” And who could forget the romantic photo of them watching the eclipse together, the love between them as palpable as the moon in the sky?

As the NFL draft draws nearer, it’s certain that Perkins’ talent, character and authenticity will inspire many, both on and off the field. Regardless of where his career heads, his journey affirms that love knows no bounds. His story will continue to touch hearts, and we can’t wait to see where it leads next. In the meantime, we’ll tune in to his social media for more adorable romantic moments between him and Dunn. After all, Perkins isn’t just winning at the game of football; he’s also triumphing at the game of love!
