    Description:
    Are you shocked The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 8 used Taylor Swift songs for its wedding the week of her engagement? No, but it still rocks.

    FULL STORY ======================================================================

    Spoilers for The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 8 ahead.

    This week, it's wedding bells: successfully for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's real life engagement (yay), and not-so-successfully for Belly (Lola Tung) and Jeremiah's (Gavin Casalegno) called-off wedding in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 8.

    It's the move we all saw coming, with Jeremiah admitting he's known about Belly's attraction to brother Conrad (Christopher Briney) from the very beginning. He's been waiting for her to bring it up, stating Belly cannot marry him if it's merely to cover up feelings she doesn't want to have. Belly immediately begs him to understand the classic chestnut 'but what we have is real!' but her bachelorette party and, well, every other scene in the Prime Video show tells us otherwise.

    Obviously, that's not been the only major news this week, though Swift and Kelce's engagement comes with a much better ring. The news was announced via
    a shared post on the pair's Instagram accounts, with the caption: "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married." If you've managed to avoid it, the internet has gone absolutely nuts with various teacher
    memes, ring dupes and where to get them, and much agreement that this will be America's version of a Royal wedding.

    So, what do I-do's have to do with one another? Thanks to The Summer I Turned Pretty 's soundtrack history, coupled with season 3 episode 8 specifically, quite a lot. It was inevitable that the show was going to use more Taylor Swift songs in future scenes, but the choices for Belly and Jeremiah's
    wedding week were devastatingly perfect. 'Us' and 'Cardigan' are the Taylor Swift songs that headline The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3's wedding week Yes, there is an engagement ring somewhere on Belly's finger. (Image credit: Amazon Prime Video)

    Get ready to weep tears or sadness and joy simultaneously, people. It's incredible (and overdue) news that Jeremiah and Belly won't be getting
    hitched after all, but Amazon has opted to use Swift's ultimate tearjerker 'Cardigan' to soundtrack Jeremiah leaving Belly crying in her dressing room pre-ceremony, with only her mom on hand to comfort her.

    But that's not the only dose of Swift we guess! 'Us', her collaboration with Gracie Abrams, is used earlier on in the episode (basically, when it was assumed there would still be a wedding). It's the perfect choice, and one I could certainly seeing playing in the background of Swift's own magical moment, though she chose 'High School' to go with her announcement.

    Taylor Swift songs have a long history of being featured on The Summer I Turned Pretty episodes, including the week of the TS12 announcement , so the fact some have been chosen for season 3 episode 8 isn't a surprise. However, it's the choice of exact songs that have had me taken aback. Showrunner Jenny Han and her team not only vividly understand what the show's fans and scenes need, but their comprehension of exactly which song to pick from Swift's bulging back catalog never fails to miss. There's the right level of
    poignancy in every choice, and that's no mean feat.

    My head is still spinning from the double dose of Taylor Swift-themed engagements this week, but while things likely won't involve vows of a ring
    in The Summer I Turned Pretty , we're not shot of the dastardly duo. There
    are three episodes of season 3 left to go, and I'll eat my hat if we won't be working through more of her albums. Especially given Belly has just spotted Conrad at the airport before boarding her flight to Paris... personally, I'd be queuing up something from 'Fearless'.
