Sara Ramírez on Che and Miranda's Breakup on 'And Just Like That...' - PEOPLE

Warning: This post contains spoilers from the sixth episode of season 2 of Max’s And Just Like That...

And Just Like That…'s Miranda and Che may be over for good, but it’s a decision Sara Ramírez believes is for the best.

In the Max show’s newest episode, the fictional couple called it quits following Che’s failed TV pilot and Miranda’s frustration with how they were treating her. Describing Che as a “very truthful” character in an interview with USA Today on Thursday, Ramírez, 47, explained why the nonbinary comedian had “some self-awareness” about the relationship by that point in the second season.

“They're left with a grounded, almost unrecognizable version of themselves that steps forward and says ‘Listen, the wheels are falling off this car. This isn't working,” Ramírez added. “I think it takes a lot of integrity to admit that to someone, whether they agree with you or not. But Miranda also has the awareness to acknowledge that it's not working. So it's sad, but it's relatable. A lot of people go through that.”

But just because Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Che are no longer together doesn’t mean Che will recede into the background. Ramírez teased there’s much more in store for their character this season, including a self-evaluation of whether they should “even do comedy ever again and rediscover their value as just a regular person who is not performing anything.”

“That’s what I think is really beautiful about that second half of their journey,” they explained. “They go back to a previous job working with a friend where they still have to deal with real-life stuff, but they discover a new connection with someone.”

“They’re just trying to find their way back to who they really are. Does that include comedy? Does that include love?” the Grey's Anatomy alum continued. “That's the big question mark at the end.”

During the first season of And Just Like That…, some viewers criticized the character of Che and their standup material, woke commentary and role in breaking up Miranda and her husband Steve (David Eigenberg). But it’s Ramírez’s hope that people will continue to embrace Che’s “humanity.”

“It’s important we remember that LGBTQIA+ people don't have to be perfect, just like the women don't have to be perfect,” they said. “We get to be imperfect, we get to be unlikable, and you still get to root for our humanity.”
