Lost heroine Cynthia Watros has found herself one hell of a plum role on House.
Sources confirm to me exclusively that the Emmy-winning actress has been cast as Wilson’s first ex-wife (he’s had three) who comes back into his life as his new girlfriend.
And this isn’t some passing fling. I’m told Watros is on board for multiple episodes, the first of which is slated to air in April. Ironically, that’s right around the time she’s slated to reappear on Lost as Libby.
This marks the first significant romantic entanglement for House’s BFF since the death of Amber nearly two years ago.
Thoughts?! Are you as psyched about this as I am? ‘Cause I’m pretty psyched.

This should be pretty cool… there are only two things I’d like to see even more than this:
1) Wilson and CUDDY
2) House and CAMERON.
Are you high? Wilson and Cuddy are like siblings and Cameron is gone so forget about it.
With that said, couldn’t they have cast a prettier actress, no offense to the woman.
Completely agree…100%
Eff you! Cynthia Waltros not pretty enough? Maybe if that’s the only photo of her you’ve ever seen, fine, but there’s always google images. I just get so sick of people having such impossible and awful standards for female beauty. It’s those dang sitcoms where fat, stupid men have gorgeous wives polluting our thoughts.
Ahem, anyway. I have very recently given up on House but will totally watch for her. Plus, extra Wilson is always worth it.
I’m with Krista. Plus I’m psyched about this casting news!
Couldn’t agree more. Sucks the crack pipe with Wilson & cuddy, house and Cam. WTF? Some people can’t dig the forest for the trees.
I’d say that House and Cuddy are more like siblings, but what do I know?
I agree with Krista, Watros is definitely “pretty enough”, & a really good actress… they did choose a bad pic of her for this article though, she kind of looks like she’s smelling something farty.
@ Krista; I’m not saying she’s unattractive, but Bonnie was pretty average, and considering Wilson is rekindling this relationship (so she’ll be around for a bit) I’d hope she’d be a significant “upgrade.”
@ Kristen; House and Cuddy SIBLINGS? O_o
Would a brother makeout with his sister and grab her ass and chest? I should hope not…
So only supermodels are good enough to be on TV for you? That’s sad. Of 3 wives, one of them might not have been a good person who was not a looker? This is Wilson, right? I love the pretty women on House, but a dash of reality now and again might be nice too. I’m hoping for less House interference. How would Wilson not resent it after how much time he lost with Amber because of House?
What do you smoke?
That’s not gonna happen, let’s be realistic!
I’m holding out for Taub and Foreman.
LOL! Now that would make for an interesting storyline!
Can I try that pot? Looks good!
Enough fooling.
The woman looks good.I hope they will write her character well and cant wait to see House’s reactions to her!Should be fun!
And Wilson -I almost thought he has no taste in women at all..I mean…well after Amber.. and Bonnie..(?!?)It turns out the original Mrs Wilson looks great.
AMEN! House and Cuddy are like siblings, or mother and son, ewww, who wants to see that?!
Hey, good casting suggestion: Jennifer Morrison, she had a great role on a really good show (also known as House MD old school).
Siblings?
BAHAHAHAHAHA!
That’s gross, they had sex.
I think the point is that they ACT more like siblings towards each other. Which I actually agree with. House and Cuddy can be extremely immature, and frankly rather dull at the best of times.
Ew. I hope you never get your wish. Neither of those couples would work.
Anyway, the central relationship will always be House and Wilson. (And not in a slashy way
)
You’re funny, you could have a career in comedy.
Cuddy treats Wilson like pond scum except when she needs him for something. Wilson deserves better than that.
I do miss the subtlety of House’s interactions with Cameron though. At least she never tried to set trip wires for him or wild goose chases or blamed him for the fact that she can’t get her life in order.
No, I couldn’t disagree more. How about none of the above! Cameron is gone and the lovely Dr.Chase should move on with someone else.
i wanna see house and cuddy hook up that be PERFECT ! and i really want wilson to have someone bcause hes lonely.fingers crossed wilson gets someone
Or… House and Wilson.
Still not giving up.:D
They need to mate soon.
Mate?
Um… They can have sex, sure, but they can’t mate.
yes!
Anything that makes Wilson happy, makes me happy
PSYCHED IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT.
Finally, Wilson getting the loove.
This will be interesting. Though I hope there won’t be any less “Hilson” moments!
loves it.
Is she the wife of his that was Canadian? Cause if so, it could lead to a lot of great jokes from House.
And she has a wooden leg.
great great piece of news!
this is gonna be so cool to see how the HILSON is going to be affected.
very cool storyline and good material.
This is good. If she became a permanent semi-regular on the cast I’d be more likely to watch. I gave up about a season ago.
Ick.
Ick to the storyline and not the the actress, just to make myself clear. Will be fun to hear House make fun of her and how stupid Wilson is for dating an ex.
Glad he’s gonna get some loving… now if he can also grow some cojones to stand up to House! He’s such a wimp with everything House says and does to him.
Hilson forever!
Totally
I’d ship that forever
Not Watros’ biggest fan, but I’ll give her a chance I guess.
I’m beyond happy about this. I love me some Cynthia Watros. Always have since her first scene as Annie on GL. Whoo! She will be great up against Hugh. The sparks are going to fly (verbally, that is, of course)! And I hope, too, she’s the Canadian ex. I love when House makes fun of us Canucks.
ITA Stacey. I was bummed when she was killed of Lost, and when that Gossip Girl spinoff didn’t work out. I don’t watch GG, not in my age range, but I would’ve have watched the spinoff for her. I hope she’s back on a series full time soon.
Yeah, she was good in GG
