Fans of The Good Doctor are bracing themselves for heartbreak — and not because of a medical emergency. Recent developments in Season 7 hint that Dr. Aaron Glassman, portrayed by the brilliant Richard Schiff, may be heading toward a divorce. For many viewers, the thought is bittersweet, leaving them both curious about the storyline and deeply saddened at the possibility.
Dr. Glassman has been more than just Shaun Murphy’s mentor; he’s been the emotional anchor of the series since its very first episode. His warmth, wisdom, and unwavering support have helped shape the heart of the show. That’s why fans are struggling to imagine his life without his marriage — a relationship that once brought him moments of rare joy and stability amid the chaos of hospital life.
Social media has already been flooded with emotional reactions. Some viewers are sharing heartfelt posts, saying they “can’t bear to see Glassman alone again,” while others express hope that the writers will give him a chance at reconciliation. For many, this storyline feels like losing a part of the family they’ve grown to love over the past seven seasons.
Richard Schiff’s performance has always been a standout, bringing depth and vulnerability to Glassman’s journey — from battling cancer to navigating his complex friendship with Shaun. The idea of seeing him go through the pain of divorce resonates all too strongly with audiences who have followed his ups and downs.
While the show hasn’t officially confirmed the outcome, the hints are enough to leave fans anxious for answers. Whether this is the end of Glassman’s marriage or just another obstacle in his path, one thing is certain: The Good Doctor Season 7 is set to deliver yet another emotional blow that will have viewers reaching for the tissues.
