Belly and Jeremiah’s romance is set to continue as first-look images of The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 are unveiled. Based on Jenny Han's bestselling book trilogy, the hit Prime Video series follows Belly Conklin’s (Lola Tung) complicated relationships with the Fisher brothers, Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno), while exploring themes of first love, family dynamics, and coming-of-age growth. Following its 2022 debut, The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 was greenlit in August 2023, but delays caused by the SAG-AFTRA strikes have pushed the release to follow a two-year hiatus.

Deadline has shared the first-look images of Jeremiah and Belly's blossoming romance. The photos show Belly and Jeremiah soaking in the Massachusetts sun, reading books to each other, and hanging out at the beach while Steven seems to be pursuing a romance with Taylor (Rain Spencer). Take a look at the images below:

What This Means For The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3

An Exciting Shift In Belly’s Journey

The first-look images confirm that The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 will continue to explore Belly and Jeremiah’s relationship, picking up after the emotional conclusion of its sophomore season. At the end of The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2, Belly chooses Jeremiah over Conrad, and their romance now appears to be in full swing. Prime Video's next chapter is set to adapt We’ll Always Have Summer, which picks up two years later, with Belly having moved on from high school and now navigating life in college.

Set to debut in July, the season will follow Belly as she navigates life after high school. The first-look images include a shot of her in an empty dorm room with her mother, Laurel (Jackie Chung), marking the shift to college life as Belly faces a more mature relationship. However, with several shocking twists in the third book for The Summer I Turned Pretty, it will be interesting to see how the show adapts these developments and how closely it follows the changing dynamics of Jenny Han's original love story.
