I saw a Netflix show last year (can't remember the name) in which the main character, a woman, was still close friends as well as had a working relationship with a trans woman who had previously been her husband. The transgender woman ultimately died heroically.
Killing off the male lead love inerest, but in a respectfully dramatic manner, so that the female protagonist is free to pursue other relationships tabula rasa is a key narrative feature that insures success with female audiences. #expendability
