We'll Always Have Summer book ending explained before The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 drops: Who does Belly pick, Conrad or Jeremiah?
A new trailer for The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 just dropped, giving fans a fresh look at Belly's (Lola Tung) ongoing love triangle with the Fisher brothers. While the trailer leans into her future with Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno), it also reminds viewers that Conrad (Christopher Briney), her first love, is still her Red. Based on Jenny Han's bestselling book trilogy, the series has built a dedicated fanbase since Season 1 premiered in 2022, adapting The Summer I Turned Pretty. Season 2, which aired in 2023, was based on It's Not Summer Without You. The upcoming third and final season is based on We'll Always Have Summer—and after a delay caused by the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, it's finally set to premiere on July 16, 2025. With the fandom once again split between Team Conrad and Team Jeremiah, fans are deep in their theory era, trying to predict Belly's final choice. But if you're too curious to wait, we're breaking down how it all ends in the book, spoilers included. The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 trailer teases Belly and Jeremiah's marriage! Prime Video has shared the trailer for The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3, and things are getting complicated fast. Belly and Jeremiah are getting married, but Conrad's unexpected return—and unresolved feelings—throws everything into question. Set to Taylor Swift's Daylight and Red (Taylor's Version), the trailer hints at an emotional love triangle as Belly stands at a crossroads. Season 3 follows Belly at the end of her junior year of college, seemingly sure about her future with Jeremiah—until life (and Conrad) shake things up. The new season also stars Sean Kaufman, Rain Spencer, Jackie Chung, and Colin Ferguson. Jenny Han and Sarah Kucserka return as showrunners and executive producers. We'll Always Have Summer Book Ending Explained We'll Always Have Summer begins two years after the events of It's Not Summer Without You. At the end of the previous book, Conrad told Belly she would be better off choosing Jeremiah. Since then, Belly and Jeremiah have been in a happy, committed relationship, and it's been a while since she last heard from Conrad—no hard feelings, though (or so she thinks). Belly's confidence in her future As Belly finishes her freshman year of college, she feels certain that Jeremiah is her future and that her love for Conrad is in the past. She reflects on how, even as a child, she always believed she would one day have the last name Fisher, though she never imagined it would happen this way. She also reminisces that Conrad has always been a fragment of her imagination, but with Jeremiah, she has everything real. A Shocking rumor and betrayal Just as Belly prepares for a summer in Cousins Beach with Jeremiah, she hears a disturbing rumor at his fraternity party: Jeremiah slept with another girl, Lacie, from his class, during their brief breakup. They broke up for a while over a misunderstanding, and he went on a boys' trip to Cabo. Belly was almost sure that it was a rumor, thinking, 'My Jeremiah 'would never do this, but when confronted, he admits it, claiming he thought they were permanently over. Belly, however, sees it as cheating; as for her, it was a break, not a breakup. Heartbroken, she finds herself reminiscing about Conrad, stirring up old emotions. An unexpected proposal Days after avoiding his calls and rotting in her bed and barely getting by her days with the help of her friends, Belly decides to meet Jeremiah. Instead of breaking up, Jeremiah proposes to Belly, hoping to prove his commitment. Though hesitant, she accepts, and they plan to announce their engagement at a memorial garden dedication for Susannah in Cousins, with their family present. Conrad's hidden feelings The perspective briefly shifts to Conrad, who reveals he still loves Belly but believes he lost his chance. He refuses to interfere with her relationship with Jeremiah, and even though he knows nobody would really love Belly like he does, he doesn't want to be the one who comes between her and Jeremiah's happiness. Family backlash After the dedication ceremony, Belly and Jeremiah announce their engagement at a cozy dinner with both sides of the family present. Laurel, Belly's mother, is furious and asks if she's pregnant for them to come to this sudden decision. When Belly says they want to marry because they envision a future together, she refuses to support the wedding or even attend. She thinks they're too young and should at least finish college first. A tense summer at the Beach House When her mother goes silent on her, Belly decides to take matters into her own hands. She decides to plan her own wedding, and Jeremiah suggests they should use his trust fund for the wedding because his mom would have wanted them to. With little help from Taylor, Belly buys her wedding dress and sets up a mood board for a small wedding. Jeremiah tries to convinceLaurel, but she refuses to partake in theirwedding- related activities. Belly then moves to the beach house for the summer to plan the wedding, and to her shock, she finds Conrad there, and even though she is in the middle of her wedding planning with Jeremiah, her heart skips a beat when she sees Conrad, and that's how we know her feelings for him were never gone. With Jeremiah away most days for work, Belly and Conrad grow closer again as he helps with wedding preparations. Conrad even convinces Laurel to attend the bridal shower, but lingering tension and unresolved feelings complicate things. The Final Confrontation The day of the wedding is finally approaching, and all of their friends have gathered at the beach house. At the bachelor party, Conrad learns about Jeremiah's infidelity via one of his friends. When he confronts Belly, she admits she already knew. Conrad confesses he still loves her and only pushed her toward Jeremiah because he thought his brother could make her happy. He begs her to run away with him, even though the wedding is the next day. The next morning, Conrad and Jeremiah fight. Conrad says goodbye to Belly, and when Jeremiah returns, he asks if she still loves Conrad. She admits she does, and they call off the wedding. Epilogue: A New Beginning Years later, Belly, now almost 24, recounts how she studied abroad in Spain and reconnected with Conrad through letters. They fell in love again and are now getting married. Jeremiah also attends their wedding with a date, and their fractured relationships have healed. The story ends with Belly and Conrad running into the waves, just like they used to.

'The Summer I Turned Pretty' star and creator talk returning for potential future seasons: 'Never say never'
The Summer I Turned Pretty is about to end with the upcoming third season, but the creator and star aren't ruling out a return to Cousins Beach after the series finale airs. As author/showrunner Jenny Han gears up for the release of the final 11 episodes of the Prime Video adaptation of her beloved book trilogy, she reveals that she's not opposed to returning to this story at some point down the line, either for a sequel series or revival picking up with Belly (Lola Tung) and the other characters years later. "Never say never — I never do," Han tells Entertainment Weekly. "If the story is there, then I'm there. As a storyteller, you just get hit with inspiration all the time. If I had a really great idea that I was excited by, that I wanted to keep telling the story, and if [the stars] were excited to do it, then I would be so pumped. It really depends on if I feel like there is more story to tell." Series star Tung is equally into the idea of catching up with her character Belly in the future, in whatever form Han wants to create. "I love working with this group of people and I love working with Jenny," Tung tells EW. "I think it's such a privilege to be any part of her cinematic universe, so if I was ever asked, I'm there." While the idea of potential future seasons of The Summer I Turned Pretty sounds great to the creator, Han admits the real draw for her would simply be to work with Tung and the rest of the cast members again — on any project. "I love working with all these guys, that's at the core of it," Han explains. "I would always welcome working with them on this, or something else. Who knows what the future holds?" The Summer I Turned Pretty follows the complicated love triangle of teen girl Isabel "Belly" Conklin and the two Fisher brothers, Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno). The season 2 finale ended just like Han's second book in the trilogy, It's Not Summer Without You, with Belly ultimately ceasing her tumultuous will-they-won't-they dynamic with Conrad to be in a relationship with his younger brother/her best friend, Jeremiah. Season 3 will adapt the entirety of Han's last book in the series, We'll Always Have Summer, and will finally reveal which brother Belly ends up with (and whether it'll be the same ending as the book).Han feels "lucky" that Prime Video gave her the freedom to adapt her book trilogy into three seasons. "Amazon Prime has been very supportive of my vision, and I haven't felt a pressure to keep it going just to keep it going," Han says. "It's all about doing what's best for the story. And you obviously want to give the fans a really satisfying ending." For more on The Summer I Turned Pretty's final season, check out EW's full cover story. The final season premieres Wednesday, July 16, on Prime Video. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

Here's why 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' is saying goodbye after season 3
Prime Video's The Summer I Turned Pretty is gearing up for a highly anticipated return with season 3, which will also mark the end of the fan-favorite series. Based on Jenny Han's beloved novel trilogy, the show follows Belly Conklin as she navigates the tangled emotions of love, friendship, and family during her yearly stays at Cousins Beach with brothers Conrad and Jeremiah. Season 1 introduced the charm and drama of Belly's coming-of-age story, capturing her evolving feelings for the Fisher brothers. Season 2, adapted from It's Not Summer Without You, dove deeper into heartbreak, family tragedy, and emotional conflicts as the group grappled with Susannah's illness. Season 3, which is based on the final book, We'll Always Have Summer, is expected to bring closure to Belly's love triangle and the bittersweet end of her childhood summers. Though the show has been wildly successful since its debut, Prime Video confirmed that season 3 will be its last. The decision to end the series after three seasons reflects a commitment to staying true to Jenny Han's original trilogy. Attempting a fourth season without source material 'has the potential to drag out the story longer than necessary and severely hurt the themes of growing up, friendship, family, and romance.' Viewers might also find an added season 'unnecessary and unfaithful to the original plot,' ultimately weakening the emotional impact the story has built across its three parts. Season 3 premieres July 16, 2025, and promises to give fans a heartfelt conclusion to the story that's defined a generation of summer love.
