Kelli Giddish was born on 13 April 1980 in Cumming, Georgia, USA. She is an actress, known for Chase (2010), All My Children (1970) and Chicago P.D. (2014). She has been married to Beau Richards since November 2021.

After joining Law & Order: SVU in season 13, Giddish said farewell in Thursday's mid-season finale, which saw Rollins tie the knot with Peter Scanavino's Carisi and decide to leave the unit to make a major change in her life: She's going to teach at Fordham University.

Fans of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit will say goodbye to Molly Burnett who is exiting the NBC series in which she portrayed Detective Grace Muncy after less than a year on the show, Deadline has confirmed.

Upon her exit, Rollins and Carisi, or Rollisi, finally tied the knot which was a highly anticipated moment for audiences who have witnessed their romance and friendship blossom for several seasons.

While they do not part as friends, however, they admit that they miss each other. Showrunner Julie Martin, in an interview for Today, said that she did not want the last scene between Barba and Benson to imply a romantic connection between Benson and Barba but a deep love as friends.

I had done the Law & Order way of storytelling, which they do really well, and I was interested in telling stories from a different angle - whether comedic or inhabiting a new world or doing it on different platforms.”
