They have recently taken a break in their relationship after an awkward incident during a double date with Ryan and Jenny, where Jenny, oblivious to the fact that the other couple was not in that stage of their relationship, asked when the two were going to get married like she and Ryan were about to in the very near future.[9].

Beckett engages in a romantic cosplay with Castle, dressing as her favorite character from a long-cancelled science fiction show (and with a scary monster mask from the same show added for fun) ("The Final Frontier").

This contrasts with the style of her predecessor, who made decisions based on how they would affect people (for example, concealing a policewoman's vigilante activities because of the potential political backlash) and takes a dimmer view than her predecessor of the Beckett-Castle working relationship.
