New Girl Character Guide
Cece Parekh is Jess' best friend since childhood, a street-smart and snarky fashion model. Although she is fairly serious and cool, she does enjoy parties. Initially skeptical of Jess's new roommates, Cece becomes interested in Schmidt after seeing him express his emotions while preparing Thanksgiving dinner. They have a passionate relationship and try to keep it a secret from the others until they were discovered by Winston. Despite Schmidt breaking up with her at the end of season 1, she retains feelings towards him.
In season 2, Cece dates a guy named Robby. She later discovers that she has limited time to conceive a baby and decides to enter an arranged marriage with a man called Shivrang. She calls off the wedding in the season 2 finale after realizing that she is still in love with Schmidt and has no feelings for Shivrang.
At the start of season 3, a confused Schmidt misleads her as he attempts to carry on two different relationships. Cece soon discovers the truth and is left to recuperate after the break-up. She starts working part-time as a bartender at the place where Nick works, passes her GED exam and takes community college classes.
While Schmidt is dating Fawn Moscato, Cece begins to have feelings for him again. She goes on a hiking trip to Mount Shasta, and when she returns she accepts his marriage proposal in the season 4 finale "Clean Break". They get married in the season 5 finale "Landing Gear", and buy a house, which they fix up in season 6.
In addition to bartending, she opens up a modeling agency called Cece's Boys in season 6. In the final episode, "Five Stars for Beezus", Cece learns she is pregnant. Three years later, in season 7, she and Schmidt have a three-year-old daughter named Ruth, and her modeling agency was merged into a larger agency. In the series finale, a flash-forward reveals that she and Schmidt eventually have a son named Moses.
