The Summer I Turned Pretty was pretty much the show of the summer for everybody, especially for teens all across the world. This show goes back to the summer of 2022 when it first premiered on Prime on the 17th of June. The last season premiered this year on July 16th and they released one episode per week up until September 17th. The Conklin family and the Fisher family spend every summer at a beach house called the “Cousins” which is where most of the show takes place.
Teens all around the world debate over the fact that they’re “Team Jeremiah” or “Team Conrad”. Let’s settle this debate once and for all. We already know which brother is better, but here are some reasons that people claim they’re on Team Conrad. It’s because he has become more mature and started taking responsibility for his actions, which is exactly what Sophomore Lilah Kassaie said, she stated that the reason for her being on “Team Conrad was because he is mature, responsible for his actions, and he cares about Belly’s feeling a lot”. Which is also the opposite of Jeremiah in season 3. If you’re still on Team Jeremiah after all that happened in season 3 then you probably go for looks more than personality. Just saying.
We thought that Jeremiah and Belly’s relationship was going great. They were best friends growing up and then became lovers, I mean that’s the kind of relationship people want, right? A best friend and a lover at the same time, that’s why a lot of people were in Team Jeremiah during the first two seasons, including me. We loved him because he was sweet, kind, and really liked Belly a lot. Though this changed in season three, I still think he liked Bell, but it was just his actions. He was irresponsible, immature, and just acted like a baby.
Tiktok is the main platform for teens to fight over which brother they support. There are also a lot of edits of both the brothers, Conrad and Jeremiah. However, edits of Conrad started sky rocketing after what happened in the new season. One of the reasons the edits sky rocketed was because Jeremiah cheated on Belly, yup you heard me right, he cheated on her. It happened over spring break in Cabo, when Jeremiah and Belly were already broken up. Teens often post on their social media saying that if it was Conrad he would’ve never cheated, like Sophomore Mahita Ghatu also saying that she is ‘Team Conrad because Conrad would’ve never cheated on Belly.”
The debate is settled once and for all. The better brother is Conrad, he was always the one for her. He would’ve never done whatever Jeremiah did. Jeremiah messed up his relationship with Belly and he didn’t care. Conrad on the other hand was patient and waited for the right time to get his girl, Belly.
