Actress Troian Bellisario recently sat down with Interview Magazine to chat about her role on ABC’s hit series Pretty Little Liars. Troian chatted about meeting the cast, how her life has changed, and more! Check out some of the highlights below.
Will there be a lot meer Spencer and Toby action this season?
Yeah! I don’t really know where they’re headed, because I feel like the whole purpose of living in such a twisted place, and setting on a TV toon in such a dark place as Rosewood, is that nothing good can last for long. They seem to be doing really well. I’m so interested in the way that their relationship changes. They’re so romantic and so supportive of each other, because of what they’ve been through. The writers were so proud when they brought Spencer and Toby together. Toby and Spencer were the first relationship that took an entire season to develop. I think they have a lot meer to go through.
What has changed for u the most for u since PLL started?
To be honest, what’s changed for me is my schedule. We’re shooting ten months out of the year. Maybe nine months out of the year. The girls and I shoot Monday through Friday, generally before sunrise until after sundown. It’s a tough job. Your weekends are spent doing laundry, calling the people u love, trying to have a drink, relax, and preparing for the week. On top, boven of that, I’m a really ambitious person with a lot of things that I want to create and do, like painting of making my own film, which I’m in the process of doing right now. That’s really what changed for me: learning how to juggle and learning how to be easier on myself. I’m like Spencer at this point in my life: I get stressed out really easily, and the first thing I have to do is not let myself go down that road. I know that the circumstances on our toon tend to be really heightened. We really strive to, in the middle of all of this insanity and these crazy things that are going on, try to portray real people. I think that’s what makes the girls so relatable in a way. When you’re getting stalked 24 hours a dag door some anonymous person, it’s kind of like, What is going on? I think with the crazy stories that are going on, the characters are real.
So, are u and the PLL girls close outside of the show?
Yeah! We are. The funny thing is… Ashley and Lucy knew each other when they were fifteen, but they hadn’t talked to each other in a long time. Right before we shot the pilot was American Thanksgiving, and we had to be up in Canada for it. We had this Thanksgiving avondeten, diner with our producers and my director. He and the four of us just sitting there, that was really our first social time just sitting down with each other. It was so weird. I just think they did the best job casting because literally we felt like we knew each other our whole lives. Ever since that Thanksgiving dinner, the girls call me for anything. I feel like I can call them for anything. It’s such a support system.
Have u ever been caught in any weird scenarios of lies, like Spencer and the girls on the show?
Totally! I like to think that I don’t really lie a lot. It’s funny—ever since I got on the toon it’s gotten easier and easier to lie. I can’t really think of one off the top, boven of my head, but I’ve told some pretty good lies in my time.

"A" Theories
I think that Toby is "A" because someone locked Spencer in that room with a crobar when they were at the fair and i think he is because as soon as she got out he was straight outside
Facts
Alison has a twin
Mona had Alis diary
"A" (Mona) took spencer to the cliff when she wanted to throw her off
Ali is the sencond "A"
Mona used to datum Noel
Noel broke up with Mona to be with Jenna
Maya and Ali both died
Ali made up a fake twin so she could spy on the pretty little liars
Hope u enjoyed the facts and my A theorie, I hoped i helped u <3
