Back in December 2008, Matt Idelson said "Lucy and Ron are no longer a couple, though she did make a vague allusion to their marriage in the NEW KRYPTON SPECIAL. Her joining the military to try and honor her dead (so far as she knows) father and gain the approval she'll never get - even at the expense of her marriage - is meant to be a step forward in her character growth. As for Sam (Ron and Lucy's son), lets just say he may be gone, but he ain't forgotten! (And that's all the comment I'm going to give on THAT topic for the moment.)"
