This could get ugly.
Christopher Gorham has closed a deal to reprise his role as Betty’s ex-love Henry, setting the stage for a geektastic showdown with her current beau, Matt (Daniel Eric Gold).
Ugly Betty creator Silvio Horta confirms to me exclusively that Gorham — who’s currently trying to stay alive on CBS’ Harper’s Island — will reappear in the show’s two-hour season finale on May 21 when Betty runs into Henry and his new girlfriend Chloe (played by Gossip Girl’s Dreama Walker) in the Big Apple. To prove to themselves that they’ve moved on, Betty and Henry agree to go on a double date to a Mets game with their respective significant others. Good times, right? Not exactly…
“As Henry and Betty reconnect, it could potentially threaten her relationship with Matt,” teases Horta, who adds that he’s “really happy” to have Gorham back in the fold. “Chris has always been, and will always be, part of the Ugly Betty family.”
But how big a part of the family will he be? Horta isn’t saying whether Gorham will be back in the fall, which leaves me with no other choice than to pose the following question to you fine folks: Who are you rooting for: Team Matt or Team Henry? Sound off in the comments! Oh, and don’t forget: Betty returns next Thursday!

I’m on team Gio. Always was, always will be. But Henry is WAY better than “sex-addict” Matt. Seriously? Lame plot device.
I used to love Betty/Henry but then I got so sick of it. Why is there always so much drama with Betty’s love life?? Right now I’m just enjoying her with Matt.
Team Matt, most definitely.
As much as I hated the sex-addict storyline, I love Matt as a character beyond that. I hated Henry by the time he left. Gio…was Gio, and probably the best love interest for Betty yet. But something tells me he’s gone.
Gio needs to come back. I loved him and Betty as a couple. I miss him

Matt Matt Matt! Henry is so yesterday
team matt for the win!
TEAM MATT! He’s been so good to Betty and he’s not a geek like henry, just different like Betty
I’m voting for Matt to dump Better, Henry to dump his gf and then Matt and Henry ride off into the sunset together!
Geez, I’m over Henry. Let’s move on.
I am so sick of Henry. Can’t he just go away and stay away? In an ideal world Gio would come back, but I have a feeling that’s not going to happen. Just… not Henry. NOT Henry.
HA, I KNEW IT. It’s a cross over to Harper’s Island. I commented last week that I thought Henry in Harper’s Island coincidentally has the same name in Ugly Betty…
Hmmm, conspiracy? I think not.
Oh, and Henry is the killer on HI. You betcha…
Team Gio!
Team Matt, no doubt! Though the tension created by having Henry around should be interesting to watch.
Meh. This is a dying show that reached it zenith long ago and has been steadily declining ever since.
Cancellation here we come!
Why is this show even on anymore? It used to be great but since it moved to NYC, its become unbearable to watch. And now they’re bringing back one of the lamest characters?! ABC CANCEL THIS SHOW!
I Henry comes back for good, I’ll keep seeing this show. This season has been so boring without him. Matt is such a plain character… Of all of Betty’s beaus, I think the only worse than him was Walter.
I’m really crossing all my fingers to have Christopher Gorham back as a regular!
I was Team Gio from day 1 of Gio, after his behavior this year though I am TEAM MATT! Henry just needs to stay gone. Beat that dead horse much UB?
I’m so done with Henry. Not sure about Matt. Kinda miss sandwich guy still.
Team Gio… bring Freddie Rodriguez back!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also adore Team Gio! Bring Gio back.
If Team Gio isn’t playing, I’m rooting for Team Matt all the way! Henry’s kind of lame…
Matt has been great to Betty, but Gio was fun! No Henry
I hate, hate, hated Henry. I despised Henry. Matt or Gio FTW.
Doesn’t Henry have a BABY to take care of in Arizona?! It will be interesting to see how the “nice guy” of Mode came back into the city with a new girlfriend sans baby. :-\
I think you need to bring Henry back, along with the fact that he found out the baby wasn’t his. been pretty boring without him, show went kind of down hill this season
i HATE matt, and i dont really like henry. BRING BACK GIO!!!
Team Gio. When he told Betty that he wanted to be “THE guy”…I felt like a teenager again…BRING HIM BACK..please.
Go Henry! DEATH TO MIDGET GIO!
Henry is awesome so cute… Betty’s first true love! He is the one.
