Which SVU character is married to Dominick Carisi Jr.?

The story behind the answer

Amanda Rollins is the SVU character married to Dominick “Sonny” Carisi Jr.

Rollins and Carisi begin as colleagues at Manhattan SVU. Their relationship develops gradually: Carisi often supports Rollins through difficult cases and family crises, while Rollins becomes an important part of his life outside the squad. Their romance becomes explicit in season 23.

Carisi later leaves police work for the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, becoming an assistant district attorney. The career change does not end the relationship; instead, it adds a familiar law-enforcement-versus-prosecutor dynamic to their partnership.

The couple marries in the season 24 episode “And a Trauma in a Pear Tree.” Rollins then retires from the NYPD and accepts an adjunct professorship at Fordham University. The other options are SVU colleagues, but none is married to Carisi.
