It's the question on everyone's lips as we gear up for the third season of 'The Summer I Turned Pretty': who will Belly end up marrying? The latest trailer has certainly thrown a spanner in the works, showing Belly (played by Lola Tung) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno) deciding to tie the knot. It’s a move that seems to catch their loved ones off guard, and Belly herself voices some uncertainty, wondering if they can make it work when they don't have the full support of their families.
"First loves are important. But they’re not as important as lasts," Belly muses in the trailer, hinting at a shift in her heart. She goes on to say, "I loved [Conrad] in a way that you can only do the first time around. But that is the past. Jeremiah is my future. This is the way it is supposed to be. He is The One." This declaration certainly points towards a future with Jeremiah, but as any fan of a good love triangle knows, things are rarely that simple.
Meanwhile, Conrad (Christopher Briney) is shown contemplating whether to confess his feelings before it's too late. This adds another layer of dramatic tension, leaving us to wonder if Belly's pronouncements are truly final or if old feelings might resurface. The trailer perfectly captures that agonizing space between what feels right in the moment and the long-term implications of such a significant decision.
While the show's narrative is unfolding on screen, it's worth noting that the source material, Jenny Han's books, also explore these complex relationships. Without delving into specific spoilers that might spoil the viewing experience, the books offer a deep dive into Belly's journey and her evolving feelings for both brothers. The show, however, has the freedom to interpret and adapt these storylines, sometimes offering surprises even to those who have read the novels.
So, as the trailer suggests a wedding is on the horizon for Belly and Jeremiah, the question remains: is this the ultimate happy ending, or is there more drama to unfold? The anticipation for season 3 is palpable, and we'll have to wait and see how this pivotal moment plays out.
