This is one of the best Pretty Little Liars reunions ever!
Shay Mitchell and Ashley Benson (aka Buttah Benzo) took Pretty Little Liars showrunner I. Marlene King out for a belated birthday dinner last night in Los Angeles.
The three were seen leaving Craig’s after catching up over dinner and kindly stopped for a few fans who recognized them.
“Mar. My twin. My love. I love you. You have changed my life,” Ashley wrote to Marlene in a birthday Instagram last month. “You inspire me each and everyday. I’m so grateful to have someone like You and better yet a twin. #benzmar happy birthday.”

Have you ever noticed how awesome the music is on Pretty Little Liars?
Some of the show’s biggest and most shocking moments are so good because the music featured perfectly encapsulates those feelings.
Showrunner Marlene King recently opened up about how important it was for her to pick female artists.
“We strayed away from heavy rock or a male sound. We absolutely wanted the music to be female-centric and female-driven; that was our guideline,” Marlene told Vulture. “We do a lot of great ballads. There’s an artist we had on Pretty Little Liars a lot, her name is Christina Perri. That haunting, sad ballad, soulful sound. She inspires me. A lot of those early montages on the show were set to her songs. It just makes you want to cry when she sings!”
She added, “Going back to the pilot, we had Lady Gaga too. Empowered female music in every sense of the word. We referenced Beyoncé on the show. We haven’t been able to afford her music, but we’ll definitely reference her.”

Are Aria (Lucy Hale) and Ezra (Ian Harding) meant to be together? What about Spencer (Troian Belliario) and Toby (Keegan Allen)? Or Hanna (Ashley Benson) and Caleb (Tyler Blackburn)? Or hey, what about our dream couple – Ali (Sasha Pieterse) and Emily (Shay Mitchell)? We need answers!
Luckily, creator Marlene King recently opened up about what we can expect in the final season.
“I’m a hopeless romantic. I think that our fans, as much as they’ve enjoyed the mystery of the show, they’ve enjoyed the romance, as well,” she said (via Variety). “I think the couples that are meant to be together will find their way back together.”
Executive producer Oliver Goldstick added, “I think there are some surprises.”
