10. Despite
fans’
desires,
pairing
off
managing
partner
Harvey
with
Rafferty’s
Donna
was
not
a
foregone
conclusion
in
creator
Korsh’s
mind. “When
I
wrote
the
pilot,
I
wasn’t
like, ‘Harvey
and
Donna
are
destined
to
be
together,’
or
even, ‘Are
they
going
to
be
the
big “will
they
or
won’t
they?”‘
But
we
definitely
went
through
that
with
Mike
and
Rachel,”
he
confessed
to
USA. “Do
we
keep
them
together,
and
what
do
we
do
about
that?”
But,
yes,
he took
note
of
the #Darvey
shippers
on
social
media, saying
that “they’re
louder
than
the
percentage
who
aren’t”
and
feel “that
they
comprise
240
percent
of
viewers.”
Eventually,
he
gave
in,
ending
the
series
with
the
pair’s
spontaneous
wedding.

As
for
Macht
and
Rafferty
IRL, “we
go
back
20
years
and
our
daughters
are
best
friends,” the
actor
revealed
in
a
2012
interview
with
Blast
magazine of
16-year-old
Satine
(he
and
wife
Jacinda
Barrett
are
also
parents
to
Luca,
9)
and
15-year-old
Oona
(Rafferty
and
husband
Santtu
Seppälä
also
have
daughter
Iris,
11). “We
are
really,
really,
really
close
friends.
We’ve
been
to
each
other’s
weddings.”
