| Love Me Love Me Ending Explained: Who Does June Choose? and Is There a Sequel? (Image: Prime Video) |
Prime Video’s Love Me Love Me (2026) has officially wrapped, and honestly? We’re left with feelings. The young adult romance drama, based on the first novel in Stefania S.’s four-book series, delivers exactly what the genre promises: boarding school tension, emotional chaos, glossy Milan visuals, and a love triangle that refuses to behave.
Directed by Roger Kumble and produced by Lotus Production and Amazon MGM Studios with support from WEBTOON Productions, the film leans hard into the classic “good guy versus bad boy” dynamic — but with more emotional weight than you’d expect.
The story follows June (Mia Jenkins), who moves to Milan after her brother’s passing, hoping for a reset. She enrols in an elite international school, determined to start fresh. But of course, fresh starts in YA dramas never stay simple.
She meets Will (Pepe Barroso Silva), the polished honour student with calm energy and serious boyfriend potential. He offers stability. Comfort. A sense of normality. And for a while, that’s enough.
Then enters James (Luca Melucci), Will’s best friend — charismatic, sharp-tongued, infuriatingly attractive, and secretly involved in underground MMA fights. He’s the type who pushes June’s buttons in public but quietly protects her when no one’s looking.
The triangle isn’t just romantic — it’s psychological.

June is torn between:
-
Safety with Will
-
Intensity with James
Meanwhile, family drama adds pressure. June’s mum is navigating her own complicated relationship with Jordan — James’ father — creating even more emotional overlap between both boys’ worlds.
As Will’s behaviour grows increasingly inconsistent, June begins to realise there’s more going on beneath his “perfect student” image.
And that’s when the real emotional core of the film begins.
The final act shifts from love triangle drama to something far more vulnerable.
After weeks of miscommunication, awkward tension, and half-truths, June finally confronts Will properly. What follows is one of the strongest scenes in the film.
Will opens up about his mental health struggles.
He reveals that he lives with severe mood swings and has been on medication for years. The reason he disappears, avoids calls, or suddenly pulls away? It’s not indifference — it’s instability. He struggles with feeling “balanced” and admits that during certain phases he becomes reckless, impulsive, and self-destructive.
Suddenly, everything makes sense:
-
The cold distance
-
The sudden intensity
-
The emotional flip-flopping
June realises she misunderstood him. But here’s the twist: understanding doesn’t automatically fix everything.
Will doesn’t ask for a dramatic declaration of love.
Instead, he asks to take things slow.
He’s honest enough to admit that being in a serious relationship might add pressure he isn’t ready to handle. He doesn’t want to hurt June.
And June? She stays.
But not in a fairy-tale, “we’re together forever” way.
She chooses patience.

The ending is deliberately restrained. No grand public confession. No dramatic kiss in the rain. Just two teenagers lying side by side, agreeing to move carefully, honestly, and without pretending everything is perfect.
So does she choose Will or James?
Technically — Will.
Emotionally? It’s more complicated.
James’ presence in the final stretch is important. We learn his “arrogant bad boy” image hides childhood trauma and family instability. He’s not just the temptation. He’s layered. But he steps back. Whether that’s maturity or temporary retreat is left open.
The film ends on quiet hope rather than explosive romance.
Love Me Love Me isn’t really about choosing between two boys.

It’s about emotional safety versus emotional thrill.
Will represents vulnerability, honesty, and long-term growth — but also unpredictability.
James represents chemistry, magnetism, and danger — but also unprocessed pain.
June’s decision to stay with Will slowly suggests growth. She’s no longer chasing intensity just because it feels powerful. She chooses communication over chaos.
However, the unresolved tension with James is intentional. Their chemistry never fully disappears. The film plants enough seeds to suggest future complications — especially given the source material spans four books.
Thematically, the ending says:
Love isn’t about who excites you more.
It’s about who you’re willing to understand.
And that’s a much more mature message than the typical YA triangle.

Mia Jenkins as June
Carries the film with believable emotional vulnerability. June’s journey from impulsive to introspective feels earned.
Pepe Barroso Silva as Will
Arguably delivers the most layered performance. His calm exterior hiding internal turmoil gives the film its emotional weight.
Luca Melucci as James
Charismatic and frustrating in equal measure. He steals scenes without overdoing the “bad boy” trope.
Supporting performances from Andrea Guo, Michelangelo Vizzini, Madior Fall, and Vanessa Donghi round out the international school atmosphere nicely.
Is Love Me Love Me Getting a Sequel?
Officially? No confirmation.
Unofficially? The rumours are loud.
Since the film adapts only the first book of a four-book series, there’s plenty of story left. Fans are already speculating about a sequel or “Chapter 2”.
A lot of that decision rests on Amazon Prime Video. Reports suggest there has always been a broader arc in mind, but not necessarily immediate continuation. Streaming platforms these days tend to evaluate numbers carefully before committing.
If a sequel happens, expect:
-
Deeper exploration of James’ backstory
-
June’s emotional growth tested again
-
Will navigating stability versus relapse
-
Possibly a more intense love triangle shift
It doesn’t feel like a one-and-done story. The ending is soft, not final.

Is the Ending Happy or Sad? It’s cautiously hopeful.
No dramatic heartbreak. No fairy-tale closure.
It’s a “realistic happy” ending — built on honesty rather than fantasy.
Some viewers may find it underwhelming. Others will appreciate its emotional maturity.
Love Me Love Me (2026) gives us polished visuals, familiar romance tropes, and just enough emotional depth to elevate it above standard YA fare.
Is it revolutionary? No.
Is it addictive? Absolutely.
It knows exactly what it is — a glossy, dramatic, slow-burn teenage romance — and it delivers.
If you’re into elite school settings, complicated boys, emotional confessions, and unresolved tension that keeps you thinking after the credits roll, this one’s worth the watch.
Now the real question: if there is a sequel, would June stay steady with Will… or eventually fall for the chaos she tried to resist?
