With emotional Taylor Swift tracks, intense romantic tension, and sneak peeks of sun-soaked scenes, this teaser is everything fans could’ve hoped for—and more.

Whether you’re Team Conrad or Team Jeremiah, there’s no denying that this upcoming season promises to be the most emotionally charged yet. Here's a deep dive into what the teaser reveals, what it means for Belly’s final choice, and why this season might just be the most unforgettable chapter of all.

Why The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Matters: The Final Chapter Begins

The third and final season of The Summer I Turned Pretty is based on Jenny Han’s book We’ll Always Have Summer, the concluding installment in the beloved trilogy. Set to premiere on Prime Video on July 16, 2025, Season 3 will feature 11 episodes—the longest season yet—giving fans more time than ever to soak up the drama, romance, and heartfelt moments.

For those unfamiliar, the series follows Isabel “Belly” Conklin (Lola Tung) as she navigates a complex love triangle between two brothers—Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno)—set against the backdrop of the idyllic Cousins Beach. With Conrad’s return in the teaser, tensions are running high, and Belly’s heart is more conflicted than ever.

What the Teaser Reveals: Taylor Swift, Romance, and Emotional Turmoil

Set to the hauntingly nostalgic tracks “Daylight” and “Red (Taylor’s Version)” by Taylor Swift, the teaser masterfully weaves together glimpses of Belly’s current life and the emotional undertow pulling her back to the beach and the boys she can’t forget.

Key Teaser Highlights:

• Belly in college: She appears more confident and independent, seemingly happy in a relationship with Jeremiah.

• Conrad’s return: His unexpected appearance hints at unresolved feelings, heartbreak, and the return of the love triangle.

• Emotional narration: Belly reflects, “For me, everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August.” This callback to the first book’s opening line brings the story full circle.

• A yellow dress moment: Fans are buzzing over Belly’s show-stopping look, which symbolizes her transformation over the series.

This teaser doesn’t just hint at romance—it signals big decisions, emotional growth, and the closing of a chapter that began with sunlit summers and first loves.

What Fans Can Expect from Season 3

Season 3 is shaping up to be both epic and deeply emotional. With a longer season format and Jenny Han herself heavily involved in production, fans can expect a faithful adaptation of the final book—with a few new twists.

Here’s what we know so far:

• A special holiday episode: Han teased a Christmas-themed episode featuring a decked-out Cousins Beach house, which could provide a heartfelt break from the summer drama.

• Belly’s ultimate decision: The love triangle has been the core of the series, and Season 3 will finally answer the question—who will Belly choose?

• New character arcs: Expect deeper development for secondary characters like Taylor, Steven, and Laurel, as their stories continue to evolve alongside Belly’s.

Why the Music Matters: Taylor Swift’s Impact on the Series

Music has always played a key role in The Summer I Turned Pretty, and Taylor Swift’s influence is undeniable. Her songs have become a sort of emotional anchor for the show, helping underscore pivotal moments. With “Daylight” symbolizing hope and new beginnings and “Red” highlighting heartbreak and passion, these tracks offer emotional cues for where the story is heading.

The Swiftie crossover is no accident—Jenny Han is a self-proclaimed fan, and the emotional depth of Swift’s lyrics aligns perfectly with the themes of the series.

Final Thoughts: A Bittersweet Goodbye Awaits

The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 teaser doesn’t just tease a new season—it teases the end of a journey. Belly is no longer the girl she was that first summer. She’s faced loss, love, and growing pains, and now she must make the ultimate choice about her future.

Whether you're in it for the romance, the nostalgia, or the beautiful beach vibes, one thing is clear: this final season is going to leave a lasting impression.
