‘The Summer I Turned Pretty' adds sex scene in surprising change from book
'The Summer I Turned Pretty' has managed to surprise longtime fans. In the newest episode of the popular Prime Video show, released Wednesday, Aug. 6, Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Belly (Lola Tung) get closer than ever despite Belly's upcoming wedding to Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno). 8 Belly (Lola Tung) and Conrad (Chris Briney) in the newest episode of 'The Summer I Turned Pretty.'

Erika Doss/Prime Although many of the scenes are straight from creator Jenny Han's book trilogy of the same name, including one where Conrad sensually wipes Belly's chin with his hand after she eats a peach, some moments from the new episode never took place in the original novel. One of those moments comes when Conrad and Belly appear during a flashback from their last night together before their split. Advertisement The pair gets sexually intimate, marking a surprising contrast between what unfolds in the 'We'll Always Have Summer' book that the current season is based on and the show itself – especially because the original novel makes it clear that Belly never got intimate with Conrad or his brother, Jeremiah. 8 Belly (Lola Tung) and Conrad (Chris Briney) get intimate during a flashback in the new episode of 'The Summer I Turned Pretty.' Prime Han, who serves as co-screenwriter and executive producer of the hit Prime Video series, teased back in May that there were 'definitely changes' between her final novel of the trilogy and the show's third season. 'There are surprises,' she told Entertainment Weekly. 'And there are things that aren't exactly like the books.' Advertisement As for the beloved show's highly anticipated finale on Sept. 17, Han promised that it would be a 'satisfying' ending for everyone, whether they are familiar with her original trilogy or not. 8 Lola Tung and Christopher Briney during Season 2 of 'The Season I Turned Pretty.'

'Because if the answer feels really clear and easy, then there's no real conflict. No matter what you do, someone's going to be hurt by it.' Advertisement The first season of 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' premiered in June 2022, 13 years after Han released her book of the same name. Following the dramatic love triangle between Isabel 'Belly' Conklin and brothers Conrad and Jeremiah Fisher, the current and final season sees Belly finally choose between the siblings. 8 Belly (Lola Tung) in Season of 'The Summer I Turned Pretty.' Erika Doss/Prime Tung, 22, admitted that she was 'very emotional' shooting the final season after playing Belly for so long. 'I cried, naturally, many, many times,' the actress told Entertainment Weekly in July. 'I was 18 when I was first cast, and I just finished my first year of college, and I was 22 when we wrapped this year.' 'I really, really do feel like I have grown up a lot on the show… it's just been such a big chapter of my life — in a very important part of my life,' Tung added. 'It felt very special, very emotional, and [I'm] very proud and just happy with how everything's gone and how the story's been received.' As for Han, she said that she 'definitely cried' watching Tung, Briney, 27, and Casalegno, 25, bring her characters to life one last time for the final season of 'The Summer I Turned Pretty.' 8 Lola Tung, Gavin Casalegno, Christopher Briney, Rain Spencer and Sean Kaufman in 'The Summer I Turned Pretty.' ©Amazon/Courtesy Everett Collection Advertisement 8 Belly (Lola Tung) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno) in 'The Summer I Turned Pretty.'

'I remember Lola was like, 'You're not crying that hard,' and I was like, 'I'm always going to know you, and it doesn't feel like goodbye to me.'' 'Lola is so special and dear to me,' Han added. 'This is such a moment in time, but this girl, I'll see her soon.'

The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Episode 5 recap: Conrad helps Belly with wedding prep as if it were his own — where's Jeremiah?
The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Episode 5 recap: The 5th episode of The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 just dropped, and it's a Conrad-coded rollercoaster from start to finish. Directed by Jenny Han herself, this extra-long episode finally gives us a front-row seat to everything Conrad's been holding in. The yearning, for the most part. If you've been craving answers from his side of the story, this one hits exactly where it hurts. Starring Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, and Gavin Casalegno, The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 premiered on Prime Video on July 16. Now, nearly halfway through its final season—based on Jenny Han's third book, We'll Always Have Summer—here's a quick refresher on what's gone down so far, plus a full breakdown of Episode 5. What is The Summer I Turned Pretty about? The Summer I Turned Pretty is a coming-of-age romance drama based on Jenny Han's book trilogy. At the centre is Isabel 'Belly' Conklin, who spends every summer at Cousins Beach with her mom, Laurel; her older brother, Steven; and the Fisher family—Susannah and her two sons, Conrad and Jeremiah. What starts as an idyllic annual vacation turns into a messy love triangle when Belly finds herself caught between the two Fisher brothers: Conrad and Jeremiah. It's a story about first loves, grief, and friendship, set against the backdrop of beach sunsets and bittersweet memories. The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3: What has happened so far? To the fans who were waiting for Conrad's side of the story, Episode 5 is all yours. After weeks of barely any screentime, The Summer I Turned Pretty finally lets Conrad Fisher take centre stage. Directed by Jenny Han herself, this supersized episode unfolds entirely from his point of view, filled with unspoken feelings, flashbacks, and the kind of heartbreak that makes it clear he is still deeply in love with Belly. Episode 5 opens with last week's flashback replaying in Conrad's mind—him baking Belly dirt bombs for her 21st birthday. Her deep black hair, rosy pink lips, flushed cheeks, and summer dress are all etched in his memory as he fixes the roof. The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Episode 5 recap These memories play over and over in his head as he works on fixing the roof, doing everything he can to keep busy and avoid her. Belly has decided to spend the summer at Cousins, prepping for the wedding after a fallout with her mom, and Conrad is doing everything possible to stay out of her way. He looks down when she walks by. He avoids making eye contact. But when she asks him for a ride one morning and he says no, it only takes a glimpse of her struggling with her bike for him to come to her rescue. He can't help himself. That small act of kindness becomes the start of something bigger. With Taylor bailing because of a salon emergency and Jeremiah stuck trying to impress their father at work, Belly is left with no one but Conrad to help with wedding errands. Jeremiah, meanwhile, is dead set on getting a two-tier mirror-glaze cake that eats up half their wedding budget. When Belly and Conrad come up with a more practical plan, Jeremiah shuts it down. It's a small moment, but one that reveals how different the two brothers are. Conrad always puts his own feelings aside for Belly, while Jeremiah pushes his own way forward. The day out shopping turns out to be unexpectedly sweet. As they walk the aisles at Michaels, Conrad finds himself falling harder with each glance. They take a break to eat peaches, and as Belly clumsily gets juice on her face, Conrad reaches for his shirt to clean it off. For a second, the air shifts. They lock eyes. There is a softness that neither of them says out loud. But then Belly mentions Jeremiah, and just like that, the moment is gone. Conrad remembers what the reality is. She is marrying his brother. 'conrad reached out and wiped my chin with his shirt. it was maybe the most intimate thing anyone have ever done to me. i felt light-headed, unsteady on my feet. it was all in the way he looked at me, just those few seconds.' The car ride back gives them a chance to talk. He opens up about going to therapy and getting fired. She shares her plans to study sports psychology. They laugh and talk like two people catching up after a long pause. It almost feels like nothing has changed, but deep down, everything has. In one month, Belly will be his brother's wife. That truth hovers over every word. the way conrad is doing everything in his power to make her life easier like calculated everything about the cake and the flowers and that manchild doesn't even wanna be realistic like acting like a damn child mommy mommy i want this womp womp bitch #TheSummerITurnedPretty At Cousins, Belly tells him how the flowers they bought look just like the ones she always wanted to throw from her bedroom. That small detail pulls Conrad into another memory. This time, it's the night they made love. Passionate, intense, unforgettable. The kind of memory that explains exactly why his heartbreak still cuts so deep. But happiness doesn't last long for him. When Jeremiah walks in with a playful 'Honey, I'm home,' Conrad quickly retreats, saying he needs a bath. In truth, he just cannot bear to see them together. In his head, he is screaming. He would rather take a nail gun to the head than watch Jeremiah touch her all night. And though he hates himself for the thought, the pain is very real. That night, Jeremiah shares that his father has offered to pay for the wedding but wants it to be held at the country club instead of the beach house. Belly is upset. The beach house meant something to her, and she already had plans for how it would look. But Jeremiah brushes it off as a necessary move for their future and a chance to bond with his dad. Belly, like she often does, goes along with it. Conrad watches from a distance, watching them dance together, and all he can think about is the promise he made to his mother. She had asked him to take care of Jeremiah. That promise is what keeps him from speaking up. He also replays the night at the motel in his head, the night he put his brother before himself and lost the girl he loved. It is a memory that refuses to fade. He wants to be okay. He wants to believe this is fine. But the truth is, this wedding feels like the worst thing that could happen to him, and the real question now is how long he can pretend it doesn't break him every single day. Only time will tell. When does Episode 6 come out? The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Episode 6 is set to release on Thursday, August 8, 2025 at 12 AM PT / 3 AM ET / 12:30 PM IST on Prime Video. With the wedding inching closer and emotions running high, this next chapter is expected to bring even more heartbreak and maybe a few surprises.

The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 episode 5 release date and time: Will we finally get Conrad's POV on Belly-Jeremiah's romance?
The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 5 release date and time: Things at Cousins Beach are finally picking up pace after Belly's arrival. The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 has officially hit its emotional stride, and with Episode 5 just around the corner, fans are bracing for what might be the most heart-wrenching chapter yet. Belly's wedding to Jeremiah is inching closer, but so is the tension with Conrad, and guess what? Jenny Han herself is stepping in to direct this one. Yep, the woman who gave us the book feels she is now holding the camera. And if the rumours are true, we're finally getting a Conrad POV episode. Let that sink in. Whether you're riding hard for Team Conrad, loyal to Jeremiah, or just here for the emotional wreckage (we see you), this next episode is the one everyone's watching. And no, you're not the only one still thinking about the Dirt Bomb muffins and Conrad asking, "What have I done?" The Summer I Turned Pretty: What the show's really about (besides making us cry) For anyone new, The Summer I Turned Pretty follows Isabel 'Belly' Conklin (Lola Tung) and her lifelong entanglement with the Fisher brothers: sensitive and vulnerable Conrad (Christopher Briney) and sunshine-boy Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno). It's a love triangle wrapped in the chaos of growing up and buried feelings no one ever talks about until it's too late. Season 3 picks up with Jeremiah cheating on Belly and then, out of guilt, proposing to her, planning a wedding, and pretending that Conrad isn't breaking in the background. Spoiler: He is. In episode 4, he thought he had had enough of Belly and Jeremiah's 'ridiculous' romance, but as soon as he heard Belly cry, he retraced his steps back and decided to support their wedding, just because he's completely and hopelessly still in love with her. This season adapts We'll Always Have Summer, the final book in Jenny Han's bestselling trilogy. It's all about growing up, making impossible choices, and figuring out if first love really does last forever or if it just hurts the most. The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 recap: Here's what's happened so far Where do we even start? Belly said yes to Jeremiah's proposal, even though everyone (including her mom) is side-eyeing their decision. Conrad, freshly fired and still obviously in love with her, has been trying to play it cool, but his yearning is quite visible. He bakes Belly Dirt Bomb muffins, volunteers as best man, and keeps flashing those 'I'm fine' eyes that are clearly lying. Last week's episode gave us a wedding dress moment where Belly almost picked a gown that looked exactly like the floral dress she wore with Conrad back in Season 2. Coincidence? Please. Fans are already screaming about how the episode titles ('Last Season', 'Last Stand') are hinting this summer might be Belly and Conrad's final chance. What to expect from The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 5? Yep, it's happening. Jenny Han is directing this week's episode, and it's reportedly told from Conrad's perspective. Expect voice-overs, pain, and replays of scenes we already saw, but now with 10x the emotional weight because we'll know what he was thinking when he stared just a little too long at Belly's engagement ring. This episode is set to explore what Conrad's been holding in all season. His sacrifices, his guilt, his absolute inability to walk away. It's the kind of episode that could flip Team Jeremiah hearts or—let's be real—completely wreck Conrad stans. The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 5: When and where to watch The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 5 releases on Thursday, August 6, 2025 on Prime Video. As always, it drops at midnight Pacific Time, so depending on where you are, you might want to set an alarm, block your calendar, or fake a dentist appointment. 12:00 a.m. PT (Los Angeles) 3:00 a.m. ET (New York) 8:00 a.m. BST (UK) 9:00 a.m. CET (Europe) 12:30 p.m. IST (India) 3:00 p.m. SGT (Singapore) 5:00 p.m. AEST (Sydney) 7:00 p.m. NZST (Auckland) After this episode, the series hits its halfway mark. The finale's still far off, but this is where we start to see who's really got it.

Do Belly and Jeremiah get married in The Summer I Turned Pretty books?
The Summer I Turned Pretty fans are curious about the wedding WARNING: This article contains spoilers from The Summer I Turned Pretty novels by Jenny Han Season three of The Summer I Turned Pretty (TSITP) is certainly heating up now as Belly (played by Lola Tung) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno) prepare for their upcoming nuptials as fans think they've worked out the show's endgame. Last week's episode of the Prime Video YA drama saw the couple trying to plan their ceremony after Belly's mother Laurel (Jackie Chung) refused to go wedding dress shopping with her. Despite Belly's heartbreak at her mother's decision, Jeremiah had more luck when Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Steve (Sean Kaufman) both agreed to be his best men, with the next episode expected to feature more fallout. The countdown is on towards the wedding after Belly announced they would be tying the knot within six weeks after Jeremiah's hasty engagement proposal. Now, it looks like nothing can stop Jeremiah and Belly walking down the aisle - even Conrad's lingering feelings for her. Many fans of the TV series are curious to know whether Belly and Jeremiah will actually get hitched and are looking to the books for answers and spoilers - here's everything you need to know. Do Belly and Jeremiah get married in The Summer I Turned Pretty books? According to TSITP fandom page, no, Belly and Jeremiah don't get married in the books. Season three adapts material from the third novel in Jenny Han's beloved TSITP trilogy, We'll Always Have Summer. In the novel, the couple nearly walks down the aisle after Jeremiah's proposal to win Belly back after cheating on her. But on the evening before the wedding, Belly reveals to Jeremiah that Conrad is still in love with her after he confessed his true feelings. Jeremiah confronts his older brother, and the siblings get into a fight over Belly and which of them loves her more. Conrad convinces Jeremiah to reconcile with Belly after their fight. Jeremiah then returns to Belly and says they can only get married if she promises she only loves him. Unfortunately, Belly says a part of her will always love Conrad and this admission serves as the dealbreaker for Jeremiah. The pair split for good and the wedding is called off with Jeremiah disowning Conrad and leaving. In the novel, there are hints that Belly and Jeremiah's ill-fated relationship isn't going to stand the test of time even before the night before the wedding. In the run-up to the ceremony, Belly is left with the mental load of organising the whole ceremony rather than Jeremiah helping her. They also fail to get an apartment because Jeremiah doesn't have a great credit history and his lack of financial stability means they get turned down. Although this is how the novel goes, the TV adaptation could take a different route and fans will have to see how the story pans out on screen.
