However, in the season four finale, he’s finally able to admit to Patrick that he loves him. This emotional moment was really romantic, and it’s no surprise fans love these two together.
When Moira Tells Her Kids That She Loves Them
Johnny and Moira weren’t very great parents. It’s clear that, before the timeline of the show, they were mostly absent from their kids’ lives.
