'Suits' season 5 spoilers: Aaron Korsh talks about Donna's new love interest

(Official Facebook page)

All "Suits" fans are in one of their most hated television season: the "Suits" mid-season break. Good thing is, they are not totally left in the dark when it comes to updates about their favourite legal drama. This time out, they get some updates about what to expect about Donna and her supposed love life when USA Network's show makes a comeback.

When "Suits" season five went for its midseason finale, it chose to drop the biggest twist ever: a snitch let the authorities know about Mike Ross' (Patrick J. Adams) sham. Safe to say, every "Suits" fan is looking forward to how this affects everyone who was in on the secret, making the mid-season comeback one of the most exciting returns of the show. But that's not the only bomb dropped during the finale: Donna (Sarah Rafferty) has a boyfriend!

In one of the scenes before "Suits" went for a break, Donna told Harvey (Gabriel Macht) about dating somebody. TV Line was able to extract from creator Aaron Korsh that it was not a lie.

He says, "Yes, she was telling the truth. But it remains to be seen how important that relationship ends up being. She was not lying. I do not think Donna would do that. But it's possible that, since then, they've broken up. We don't know. We have to figure that out."

The Donna-Harvey romantic angle has been one of the things that fans have been looking forward to since the beginning of the series, especially since the finale of season four when a romantic link was hinted. Though that was only briefly explored in the new season, it was certainly hanging in the air. And fans got a glimpse into it when Donna walked in his therapist and says something about Harvey not knowing what he's missing. it will certainly be exciting for everyone to see more of that romance - or the hint of it - after the break.

"Suits" season five returns to USA Network in 2016.
