‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ Ages: Following the Four-Year Time Jump, How Old Are the Characters Now?
They're growing up so fast. 🥹
It's finally back! After two years away, and a lot of impatient waiting on our part, the third and final (sobs) season of The Summer I Turned Pretty premieres tomorrow (July 16). The first two episodes of the third season will land on Prime Video tomorrow (or, technically, tonight at midnight), and as part of the new episodes we can expect to see a time jump of four years.
Yes that's right, Belly has left high school behind and is heading towards the end of her college experience. Steven and Conrad are already in the world of work, and if the books by Jenny Han the show is based on are anything to go by, we could be hearing wedding bells by the end of the season. Honestly, they grow up so fast.
And with the four-year time jump it also means the cast are a lot closer in age to the characters they play. Intrigued to know more? Here's the main cast's ages versus the characters they play following the four-year time jump.
Lola Tung as Belly
Belly's age in season 2: 17
Belly's age in season 3: 21
Lola's age: 22
The first season of the show introduced us to Belly when she was just 15 years old. She then celebrates her 16th birthday during that summer in Cousins. Having played a teenager for the first two seasons, this is the first time Lola is getting to play Belly at a similar age to herself.
Christopher Briney as Conrad
Conrad's age in season 2: 19
Conrad's age in season 3: 23
Christopher's age: 27
During that first summer in Cousins, Conrad is preparing to head off to college at Brown and he's 18 years old. A year later he's then in college and attempting to switch colleges and get into Stanford. With the four year time jump this puts him at 23 years old and likely graduated from college. Conrad is played by Christopher Briney who is four years older than the character he plays.
Gavin Casalegno as Jeremiah
Jeremiah's age in season 2: 18
Jeremiah's age in season 3: 22
Gavin's age: 25
Jeremiah is a year younger than his older brother Conrad, and is in the same school year as Belly's brother Steven. At the age of 22, we'll likely see him graduating from college during this third season. At 25 years old Gavin is three years older than the character he plays in The Summer I Turned Pretty.
Sean Kaufman as Steven
Steven's age in season 2: 18
Steven's age in season 3: 22
Sean's age: 25
Steven is Belly's older brother by a year and in the same school year as Jeremiah. We know from the first look images, that Steven is now already entering the world of work, with it looking like he now works with Jeremiah and Conrad's dad Adam. Sean is 25 years old, making him three years older than the character he plays.
Rain Spencer as Taylor
Taylor's age in season 2: 17
Taylor's age in season 3: 21
Rain's age: 25
Taylor is Belly's best friend and Steven's girlfriend. She's the same age as Belly in season 3 and so likely still in college when the season begins. In real life Rain who plays Taylor is 25 years old, making her four years older than the character she plays.
