Hailey Upton and Jay Halstead finally tied the knot in "A Way Out," which was Episode 9 of Season 9, following their engagement. This is when the rest of the team finds out, as characterized by Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) spotting the wedding band on Upton's hand as she's putting on gloves at a crime scene. He then looks to Halstead's hand and notices a ring there, too, causing him to say "You guys got married," which Halstead confirms with a "Yeah, we did."

Fans were giddy about the development on Twitter, with user @5021_chuckles writing, "The shirt, the rings, him on her desk, I can't do this guys," highlighting a scene from the episode where the two are talking about a suspect. Twitter user @upstcad pointed out how the two were displaying their wedding rings without concern, saying "being casually married is so them." 

Fellow tweeter @thingthatworks focused on another scene where Upton and Halstead work together to apprehend a fleeing suspect, listing it as "the husband and wife takedown," while fellow "Chicago P.D." fan @imjustwritingg quipped "he found the time," contrasting Halstead's confirmation of the marriage with a scene earlier in the series where he replied to a question about being married with, "I haven't really found the time for that."

Fans are sure to keep discussing the married couple with every new episode of "Chicago P.D.," which airs on Wednesday nights on NBC.
