Sean Kaufman and Minnie Mills’ Relationship In ‘TSITP’
Many fans of TSITP were ecstatic about the possibility of the two dating, as Minnie and Sean also play a couple on the show! Sean’s character, Steven, endlessly attempts to impress rich girl Shayla, Minnie’s character, who asks him to be her date to the debutante ball. After he makes some mistakes on the way due to insecurities, she tells him that she chooses him and they kiss. *Cue the swoons*
Sean recently spoke to J-14 about what it was like to play Steven on TSITP.
“Whatever expectations are put on the character by other people are amazing and I’m so thankful for it,” Sean shares of his character. “But at the end of the day, I have to be truthful to who Steven was for me. I think we all had a little bit of a cheat code on set with Jenny [Han] being the showrunner and being on set every single day. You know, if we had a question we could always go to her and that was amazing, but it really was just about finding who that person is for me.”
