Taylor's absence from Team Conrad in The Summer I Turned Pretty is unexplained.

In the heartwarming and emotional drama "The Summer I Turned Pretty," the love triangle between Isabel "Belly" Conklin (played by Lola Tung), Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno), and Conrad Fisher (Christopher Briney) takes centre stage. However, another character, Taylor Jewel (Rain Spencer), adds a layer of intrigue to the series.

Taylor, Belly's best friend, has a complicated relationship with Conrad. In the books, her dislike for Conrad stems from personal and relational conflicts, including jealousy and complicated feelings connected to Conrad's close relationships, especially with Belly and others significant in their shared social circle. This tension and conflict reflect the complex dynamics among the characters.

More specifically, Taylor's feelings towards Conrad are intensified by his relationship with Belly, who has a strong and obsessive attachment to him. Additionally, Taylor struggles with her feelings due to Conrad's interactions and history with other characters, such as Belly's close relationship with Conrad's family and significant others.

As the series unfolds, fans have speculated about Taylor's character arc, with some suggesting that she may be pregnant in season three. However, the show has yet to confirm this theory as the last episodes of the season air. Taylor's moodiness and certain behaviours, such as her strange look when helping her mum with salon debts and her quick change of subject and awkward sniff, have further fuelled these speculations.

Interestingly, Taylor's character arc in the series has more depth compared to her role in the books. For instance, in season three, Taylor shouts at Jeremiah for cheating on Belly in Cabo, showing a more assertive side to her character. Despite this, Taylor has always been rooting for Jeremiah and Belly to work out.

Meanwhile, Taylor's relationship with Steven (Sean Kaufman), Belly's brother, doesn't exist in the books. In the series, their relationship remains to be seen, adding another layer of intrigue to the storyline.

One theory that has gained traction among fans is that Taylor may actively dislike Conrad in the series. However, the show has yet to confirm this theory, leaving viewers eagerly awaiting the remaining episodes of season three.

In the latest episode of season three, Taylor is the only one without an alcoholic drink at Belly's bridal shower, hinting at a deeper character development. The camera also quickly pans to Taylor's stomach when Lucinda says, "But I'm the mum," further stoking the pregnancy speculation among fans. However, the series has confirmed that Taylor does not get pregnant in season three, contrary to the fans' speculations.

As the season progresses, fans continue to dissect the complex relationships and speculations surrounding the characters, making "The Summer I Turned Pretty" a compelling watch for those who enjoy a good drama with a twist.
