Of course, that’s not all we have to go on to believe that Matthew Morrison could be playing Jo’s abusive husband.
Morrison didn’t give away what show he was working on, but the timing is really pointing toward him tackling the role of Jo’s husband.
The actor himself shared a video on Instagram (which has since been deleted, but was preserved online by fans) revealing that he would be playing a character by the name of Dr. Paul Stadler.
Sure, they don’t have the same last name, but Season 12 dropped the bombshell that “Jo Wilson” is actually an alias that she uses to avoid her husband discovering her location, and not all wives take their husbands’ last names anyway.
