Olivia Pope and President Fitzgerald Grant had the best reunion in real life. Former Scandal co-stars Kerry Washington and Tony Goldwyn snapped a few photos together during the third evening of the Democratic National Convention, and the 47-year-old actress shared them to social media.
“Giving the people what they want,” Kerry tweeted on Wednesday, August 21, alongside two shots of her and Tony, 64. She added the hashtags “ForDemocracy” and “Olitz” to her message, which was a nod to the relationship between her Scandal character, Olivia, and Tony’s Fitz.
In the first image, the former co-stars took a close-up selfie together in front of the large crowd at the DNC in Chicago. In the second snapshot, Kerry playfully pretended to pick Tony’s nose while he flashed a smile for the camera.

Fans of the former political series were elated to see their favorite co-stars reunite. While commenting on Kerry’s X post, one fan shared a clip of Olivia and Fitz seemingly having a disagreement.
“Pretty sure y’all took this picture after you had a fight about how much you love each other backstage,” the social media user quipped.
Kerry and Tony are both serving as hosts for the 2024 DNC. Tony was the emcee for the first night on Monday, August 19, and Kerry will host the final evening on Thursday, August 22.
