‘The Summer I Turned Pretty' Season 3 Is Finally Here—Here's When to Watch
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. The final chapter of The Summer I Turned Pretty has officially arrived. Adapted from Jenny Han's bestselling trilogy, the Prime Video series returns for its third and last season today—and it's bringing some major changes. Set nearly four years after the events of season 2, the story picks back up with Belly (Lola Tung) finishing her junior year of college, now in the midst of a long-term relationship with Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno). But the return of her first love, Conrad (Christopher Briney), stirs up old feelings and unresolved questions. The 11-episode season is based on Han's third novel, We'll Always Have Summer, and is set to explore adulthood, evolving relationships, and the future Belly thought she had figured out. But longtime fans of the book should expect some surprises. 'There are a couple of moments that people really love from the books that I knew people were wanting to see,' Han told People, but she cautioned, 'they might not always happen in the way that you're expecting.' Tung told TODAY that this version of Belly is more grounded: 'She has a new understanding of who she is and what she wants in life.' The story also delves into the lives of Belly's inner circle: Taylor is pursuing a career in PR, Steven is adjusting to post-grad adulthood, and Laurel is exploring new relationships years after the loss of her best friend Susannah (Conrad and Jeremiah's mom). And yes, there will be drama. As Casalegno teased to Deadline, fans can expect 'plot twists.' Season 3 consists of 11 episodes, making it the series' longest season yet. Han, who also directed one of the episodes, is closing out the trilogy with an expanded run to wrap up every storyline—including Belly's final decision between the Fisher brothers. Episodes premiere weekly on Wednesdays at 12 A.M. P.T. / 3 A.M. E.T. on Prime Video, beginning with a two-episode launch. You'll need a Prime subscription to stream, but new users can sign up for a 30-day free trial. Check out the full episode rollout below:

Conjoined Twin Carmen Andrade Marries Longtime Boyfriend Daniel McCormack
Conjoined twins Carmen and Lupita Andrade have reached a major milestone in their lives. One of the twins, Carmen, is married. According to People, the 25-year-old quietly tied the knot with her boyfriend, Daniel McCormack, in October last year in Connecticut. Carmen and McCormack met on the dating app Hinge in 2020. "We eloped in October with our families," Carmen told TODAY on Thursday. She confessed that they had a small ceremony on the historic Lover's Leap Bridge in New Milford. She also shared her life update last month in a YouTube video titled, 'Overdue Update!'. "(We) should probably also address something else pretty big," Carmen, who donned a long, green, glittering dress for the ceremony, said in the clip, while holding up her left hand to the camera to show off her wedding ring. "I did get married," she said, as Lupita insisted, "I did not." The camera then panned out to show McCormack, who said, "Hi! I got an upgrade, I'm the husband now." The 25-year-old, who is the right-sided conjoined twin of her sister Lupita, said that she had been dating for nearly five years, per the People. Addressing her outfit choice, she said, "I did not wear white. Don't regret it. I don't like white." Carmen continued, "Before anybody gets it twisted: We got married," pointing to herself and her new husband. She insisted, "We did not get married," gesturing to the three of them, while Lupita responded, "I don't want to get married." The conjoined twins were originally born in Mexico. Each of the women has a heart, a set of lungs and a stomach. The pair, who moved to the US when they were babies, are connected at the torso and share a pelvis and reproductive system. They each have two arms, but only one leg.

"I knew right off the bat that Daniel was different from the others, because he didn't lead with a question about my condition. I have social anxiety, and I've ended up cancelling dates at the last minute, but I felt calm on the way there," she said. "We've discussed getting engaged, but we want to live together first. Daniel and my sister get along really well. It's funny because I stay up later than Lupita, but when Daniel sleeps over, I fall asleep quickly - and he stays up talking with her," she said at the time. Lupita, on the other hand, shared that she is asexual. "I'm asexual, but I want Carmen to settle down. I know that's important to her," she said. Speaking to TODAY, Carmen said that she doesn't want to have kids, however, she does like being a "dog mom". "Lupita and I can't get pregnant, we have endometriosis and we're also on a hormone blocker that prevents us from menstruating," she explained.

'Ken went from 'Oh, she's kidding,' to 'Oh, she's not kidding,' and to 'I still got it!''

‘Love Island USA' Winners Amaya and Bryan React to Discovering They've Become TV Darlings
'Love Island USA' winners Amaya Espinal and Bryan Arenales have emerged as reality TV megastars after America voted them Season 7's favorite couple over the weekend — and the two are only just learning just how beloved they've become. The two joined TODAY on Tuesday morning, live from Los Angeles, for their first TV interview since the show's finale Sunday night. They just returned to the U.S. after spending six weeks isolated in a luxurious villa in Fiji, along with dozens of other single twenty-somethings determined to find love. Amaya told TODAY's Savannah Guthrie and Willie Geist that they're just 'digesting' how the show became a phenomenon. 'I think we haven't realized how big it is yet,' Bryan said. 'Our first calls were to our families. And then we haven't really checked anything out other than that. So catching up.' 'It's amazing, the support and the love that we have,' Amaya added. 'We have each other (and) support each other. That's most important thing,' Bryan said. 'Super grateful just hearing that.' Amaya, 25, from New York, and Bryan, 28, from Massachusetts, were chosen as winners of 'Love Island USA' Season 7, based on votes by U.S. voters. They became a couple in the back half of the season, after the popular Casa Amor episodes, when groups of new cast members — better known as 'bombshells' — are added to the show to test connections. As winners, Amaya and Bryan were given a $100,000 prize that they decided to share between each other. They said on TODAY how they plan to use that money. 'We both want to invest it, but we also want to put it to charity,' Bryan said. 'I know she wants to do a Thanksgiving drive, and I definitely want to donate some to mental health awareness. That's something that's extremely important to me. I struggled with it as a kid growing up, so I just want to help kids face their emotions and know how to deal with them.' 'Love Island USA' is a show that airs in real-time, nearly every night of the week for six weeks — so the events viewers saw in each episode took place just days before. Dozens of islanders rotated in and were dumped from the villa before the finale dwindled down to four couples. Those runners-up were Iris Kendall and Pepe Garcia-Gonzalez, Huda Mustafa and Chris Seeley, and Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe. Bryan and Amaya were crowned the winners — many thanks to Amaya, who joined the show early in Season 7 as a bombshell and captured the hearts of viewers with her animated personality and one-liners. Bryan said on TODAY that Amaya's quirks are what drew him to her. 'I remember there was a challenge where they were kind of trying to dim their light a little bit,' he said. 'The stuff that they were saying are pros to me, (and) what I'm looking for in my life. And I was like, let's see where it goes. And here we are now.'

Flash flooding and dangerous travel conditions hit East Coast
The East Coast was slammed with torrential rain and flash flooding on Monday, turning streets into rivers, shutting down subways, stranding drivers, and prompting water rescues. The tri-state area was hard-hit, with New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy declaring a state of emergency, first responders commandeering local cars to rescue people stuck in floods, and widespread flight cancellations and delays. In New York City, doomsday-like videos showed floods reaching the subway platforms. The Big Apple experienced a daily record rainfall of 2.64 inches, with 2.07 inches falling in less than one hour. Monday's hourly rainfall rate exceeded NYC's stormwater system's capacity, which is designed to withstand 1.75 inches per hour, prompting subway flooding. Meanwhile, in New Jersey, flooding was reported on Route 22 and Route 27, and residents were advised to stay indoors. In North Plainfield, New Jersey, a house exploded around 11:30 p.m. on Monday. Firefighters arrived at the home and found it engulfed in flames as severe floodwaters swept the neighborhood. The occupants were not home, however, after they had evacuated to higher ground before the explosion, according to North Plainfield Fire Chief William Eaton. In Plainfield, a temporary shelter was opened for displaced locals. On the ground, first responders worked around the clock to rescue people from submerged vehicles. "Pretty scary. I'm lucky because I didn't have my kids with me," one woman told TODAY after a front-loader construction vehicle picked up trapped drivers and brought them to higher ground. Violet Frederick said police helped her to safety before using her Jeep for more rescues. "Then they go, 'OK, take everything you need out of your car, we need to go rescue people now,'" she told NBC New York. A flash flood emergency was declared overnight for Petersburg, Virginia, where three to six inches of rain fell across the area in just a couple of hours. A flood watch is in effect for central and eastern Virginia, as well as lower Maryland, through midnight Tuesday. "Very heavy rainfall over the past 24 hrs has led to very saturated ground, and it will not take much more rainfall to quickly cause additional flash flooding," the National Weather Service Office of Wakefield said early Tuesday. Meanwhile, in Plant City, Florida, east of Tampa, nearly 10 inches of rain fell in three hours, surpassing the criteria of a 1,000-year rain event. More flooding is possible on Tuesday with 12 million people under flood watches this morning across central Texas, eastern Oklahoma, into Arkansas, and parts of Virginia and North Carolina. everal different regions are at risk for flooding, including the Mid-Atlantic (Virginia to North Carolina), central Florida, the Hill Country of Texas, which suffered deadly floods over the Fourth of July weekend, southern Arizona, and the Upper Midwest. Across all of these regions, afternoon thunderstorms capable of producing rainfall rates of one to two inches or more per hour could cause flash flooding. A flood watch is in effect for the Rio Grande, Edwards Plateau, Hill Country, and Interstate 35 corridor in Texas through 1 p.m. CT on Tuesday, with one to three inches of rain expected, with isolated amounts of up to six inches possible. The Hill Country is still reeling from Fourth of July flooding that killed 132 and left over 100 people missing. Flash flooding may occur as rivers are 'already running at above normal levels,' the National Weather Service warned. On Monday night, Maverick County, on the southwest border of Texas near the Mexico border, issued a mandatory evacuation order for the Quemado and Normandy communities due to the heavy rain and rising water levels. "NOW IS THE TIME TO EVACUATE. DO NOT WAIT," the county wrote on Facebook. Fires To the west, nearly 60,000 acres have burned in the White Sage and Dragon Bravo Fires near the Grand Canyon, forcing the closure of the North Rim of the beloved national park. The Dragon Bravo Fire began on July 4 near the canyon's North Rim. Days later, the White Sage fire ignited 35 miles north, just outside of the park, and has since quadrupled in size. Both were caused by lightning. As of Tuesday morning, the Dragon Bravo Fire has burned 8,750 acres and remains at 0% containment, while the White Sage Fire has burned 51,922 acres and also stands at 0% containment. More than 70 structures have been lost in the blazes, and over 500 people have been evacuated. The historic Grand Canyon Lodge, a gem of American history, was lost to the flames Saturday. Built in 1928, it was the only lodging inside the park at the North Rim and served as a well-known park landmark. "It has been a trying week for everyone. We had approximately 50 employees who were evacuated from the North Rim this last weekend, and the loss is devastating. We lost a lot of our employee housing for the National Park Service," Public Affairs Officer Joelle Baird told NBC News.
