The Buccaneers: Love Triangle Unravels – Theo’s Unexpected Romance Revealed

BBG News

In “The Buccaneers” novel, it’s revealed who Theo, also known as the Duke of Tintagel, eventually chose to be with, and his romantic journey took an unexpected turn. Adapted from a 1938 novel of the same name, Apple TV+’s popular romance series delves into the highs and lows of affluent young American women seeking love. One of the central narratives revolved around Nan St. George (played by Kristine Frøseth) and Theo (portrayed by Guy Remmers).

In the first season of “The Buccaneers,” the developing romance between the pair was meticulously portrayed, initially progressing harmoniously. However, their relationship was destined for failure as Theo’s close friend, Guy Thwarte (portrayed by Matthew Broome), had feelings for Nan, which set the stage for conflict from the start. The ensemble cast of “The Buccaneers” features Kristine Frøseth, Matthew Broome, Guy Remmers, Aubri Ibrag, Josie Totah, Alisha Boe, Imogen Waterhouse, Christina Hendricks, and Josh Dylan. Season 2 of “The Buccaneers” debuted on Apple TV+ on June 18, 2025.

Who Theo Ends Up With in The Buccaneers Book

Despite the fact that The Buccaneers Season 1 concluded with Theo and Nan’s marriage, the situation was much more intricate. On the night of her wedding, Guy admitted his affection for Nan, and they even spent the night together. Although Nan appeared to have feelings for Guy, she went ahead with the wedding to shield her half-sister, Jinny, by enabling her to flee and elope with Guy instead.

Regarding Theo, the series initially showed he genuinely cared for Nan, leading many viewers to anticipate a joyful conclusion for them. However, in Season 2, everything takes an unexpected turn when Theo finds out about Nan’s secret relationship with Guy. To add insult to injury, Theo learns that Nan married him solely for his title as Duke of Tintagel, causing him to feel both enraged and devastated.

In Marion Mainwaring’s continuation of Edith Wharton’s novel “The Buccaneers,” it’s shown that Theo doesn’t genuinely love Nan, which contributes to their marital issues. Additionally, it’s disclosed that Theo is homosexual.

The story ends with Nan fleeing with Guy for their blissful future, yet it doesn’t disclose who Theo ultimately pairs up with. Many speculate that Theo was tied down by his obligations as Duke of Tintagel, and some even suggest the possibility of a clandestine romance with another man to shield himself from scrutiny regarding his sexuality (explore further about Nan’s subsequent journey in the “The Buccaneers” novel).

Why Theo Could Have a Different Ending in Apple TV+’s The Buccaneers

Following the revelation of Nan’s betrayal in Season 2 of The Buccaneers, Theo vanished for several weeks, pondering the future course for his marriage and personal life. Upon his return, Nan was absent as she had moved on with Guy. Nevertheless, Theo had developed feelings for Nan’s close friend, Lizzy Elmsworth.

In the fourth episode of Season 2 for “The Buccaneers”, there was a significant revelation concerning Theo’s future. A scene unfolded where he shared a passionate kiss with Lizzy, leading to them becoming involved romantically.

Aubri Ibrag (the actress who plays Lizzy) shared with Decider why her character decided to be with Theo even though she was married to Hector. According to her, the connection between Lizzy and Theo was an “unforeseen” yet “strong and compelling:” a bond that proved too powerful for her to resist.

It’s clear that Hector and she had a strong bond; she considered him a kind and considerate man, as evidenced by his interactions with children and charitable activities. I believe his kindness as a person resonated deeply with her. On the other hand, Theo stirred something inside her, an unfamiliar fluttering sensation, if you will. Given that she’s still relatively inexperienced in matters of love, this feeling seems to have taken her by surprise and left quite an impact on her.

In Season 2, Episode 4, it’s evident that Theo and Lizzy share a powerful connection. There’s a possibility of a joyful conclusion for them both down the line. However, since Lizzy is particularly close with Nan, a heart-to-heart conversation between these two friends may be crucial before their relationship progresses further. For the moment, they need to secretly nurture their romance to keep it hidden from others.
