Prime Video has announced in a press conference and social media post that The Summer I Turned Pretty‘s third season is officially returning in Summer 2025, Entertainment Weekly reports exclusively. The show’s upcoming season has been long-awaited by fans to see which couple will become the endgame one in the love triangle. The platform has shared that the show will feature 11 episodes instead of the usual seven and eight in the first and second seasons, respectively.
The show was inspired and adapted from the famous book trilogy, according to Entertainment Weekly— written by Jenny Han (To All The Boys I Loved Before, XO Kitty, To All The Boys: Always And Forever)— which focuses on a teenager named Isabel “Belly” Conklin, portrayed by Lola Tung (The Broadway Show With Tamsen Fadal, Hadestown), as she spends her summer in the beach house of the Fisher brothers located in the small coastal town of Cousins Beach. She is in the middle of a love triangle between her best friends since childhood, which are Conrad Fisher, played by Chris Briney (Mean Girls, Daliland), and Jeremiah Fisher (The Vampire Diaries, Walker, Nine Seconds), played by Gavin Casalegno, who are the owners of that house she stays in.
In the final episode of season two, according to Entertainment Weekly, Belly seemed to have chosen Jeremiah, just like the finale in the second book, It’s Not Summer Without You. Han spoke to the news outlet about this change.
“I really loved seeing her being able to come out of her grief and smile again and have lightness and joy again,” Han shared, via Entertainment Weekly. “Her relationship with Jeremiah has always brought her a lot of happiness — it’s almost like permission to be happy again at the end of the season. She’s been punishing herself for some time now, and she’s forgiving herself in many ways. It’s a step towards living again because she’s been under a cloud for a long time.”
Tung joined the conversation, agreeing to what the writer shared, via Entertainment Weekly: “She wants someone who’s going to fight for her, and in that moment, Jeremiah is that right choice and the choice that will allow her to be happy without the drama of it.”
According to Entertainment Weekly, the love triangle isn’t over yet, as fans of the books know accurately. The upcoming third season will be adapted by the trilogy’s last book, named We’ll Always Have Summer. According to the order of the books, this could be the end of the series, but nothing specific about it has been revealed by Han yet.
The Summer I Turned Pretty‘s two seasons are currently streaming on Prime Video.
