Speaking with TV Line, Winter opened up about Tim's break up with Lucy, noting that he thinks his character is "doing good even though it's very hurtful:"
"I think his mindset is he has spiraled. Tim has lost a bit of who he is. He’s sort of accepting but not fully accepting the repercussions of where his past has landed him. And I think that in typical Tim fashion, he’s still trying to protect those around him, even from himself. So, Tim might think he’s doing good even though it’s very hurtful."
Winter has credits in The Ugly Truth, Fire with Fire, and Days of Our Lives.
