Overview

• The latest Netflix episode drop has refocused fan attention on the pair’s storyline without resolving lingering questions about their current relationship.
• Annie Lancaster told the Viall Files podcast on October 14 that she would love and support future children who are LGBTQ, saying editing compressed the context of her on-screen pause.
• She said a portion of the conversation viewers saw was clipped from a separate discussion about perceived over-sexualization in kids’ TV, citing childhood restrictions like not being allowed to watch SpongeBob SquarePants.
• Nick Amato posted an early October Instagram statement affirming support for LGBTQ people and taking accountability for how his earlier words were received.
• Recent reporting notes Nick still follows Annie on Instagram while Annie does not follow him, and the season was filmed in spring 2024 after the pair got engaged in the pods.
