Strange New Worlds paired Spock with La'an Noonien-Singh, and even Ethan Peck and Christina Chong were surprised by this new romance.

In comparing the two Big Bads, he adds, “The Gorn are very flesh and blood. They’re the brick-and-mortar version of a villain. The Vezda are very, very cthulhu, they’re very the world behind the world. They’re very much a personification of a kind of almost non-anthropomorphic darkness, and that’s another kind of evil.”

La'an Noonien-Singh was able to put the Gorn behind her in the Season 3 premiere of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, and it didn't take long for the Paramount+ series to find her a new storyline. The lieutenant seems to have entered a spicy new romance with one of her colleagues on the ship, though I'm not sure how I feel about it.
