— Liam to Aria in "Where Somebody Waits For Me"

Liam Greene used to be Aria's co-worker at Alan B & Lawrence. He also had a relationship with her, but they broke up after she decided to rekindle her past relationship with Ezra Fitz. He is portrayed by Roberto Aguire.


Biography[]

Little is known of Liam's background, but he started working at Alan B & Lawrence presumably before his current ex-girlfriend, Aria. The two began a relationship while working together which became complicated after Liam went to Rosewood and discovered that Ezra was not only Aria's former teacher, but also his ex-boyfriend. At Ella and Byron's wedding, Liam reconciled with Aria for getting mad at her for that situation.

A few weeks later, he was cheated on by Aria with Ezra, causing her to feel guilty and their relationship to briefly turn distant. When Liam visited Aria to inform her that he was going to work on the book together with Ezra, before he could tell her anything, Aria broke up with him supposedly because being with her friends again and seeing Alison's mental situation thought it wouldn't be good idea to stay together as a couple.

Later that day, Liam sees that Aria and Ezra got back together and assumes that's he was the real reason why Aria broke up with him. A short time later, he and Ezra had a tense reunion and later that day Aria confronts him about it. Liam argues that he thinks Aria was seduced by her teacher when she was in high school. After that discussion, Liam returned to Boston and we don't hear from him anymore.
