Freddy Rodriguez has been heavily promoting his new film, “Nothing Like The Holidays”. He briefly mentions Ugly Betty in this interview on Regis and Kelly:
When Regis asks Freddy about Ugly Betty, he quotes Ugly Betty executive producer Silvio Horta, who told him, “You didn’t die!”
What’s really neat is that this question was asked at the behest of one of the Getty Girls (for those of you who don’t know, this group is probably the most, uh, enthusiastic group of fans I’ve ever seen). Getty Girl “Lady T” was actually there, and asked Regis, before the show started, to ask Rodriguez about Ugly Betty.
Miss T later got to meet Freddy, who was humble and laid back. She, wearing a Team Getty T-Shirt, asked him if he knew about the Getty Girls , and he chuckled and said yes.
Here is a pic of LadyT and Freddy:
…and all the other Getty Girls died with envy…
One thing about Freddy Rodriguez, he really, genuinely seems like a nice, approachable guy. Congrats to Lady T, and here’s hoping Nothing Like The Holidays is a big hit!

Agree with you Bee. We have plenty of stories for Gio to develop. If only ABC let us. I wouldn’t care about copyrights… just to bring the man back.
By the way in this other interview:

PW: And as long as I’m gushing, I loved your work on “Ugly Betty” — any chance fans will see more of Gio?
Freddy: Well, I didn’t die, so there’s always a possibility. They just decided to go in another direction, which is fine. I had a blast on that, but there’s always a possibility of him returning. Write a letter! [laughs]
