Featuring Kristine Froseth, Alisha Boe, Josh Dylan, and others, the show recently concluded its second season and the finale was explosive. Therefore, fans obviously have some heated questions that need answering when The Buccaneers Season 3 hits the screens.

In the Season 2 finale of the show, drama unfolded at the Tintagel-set masquerade ball. Nan’s pregnancy was revealed, which forced her to stay married to Theo, even though he loves Lizzy. Therefore, Nan will also have to rethink her relationship with Guy, who is still married to Paloma. On the other hand, Theo thinks that Nan exposed his indiscretion to the papers but it was Lizzy’s ex-fiancé who did it and Theo decides to abdicate the throne. Finally, Nan decides to not tell Theo about the child and Theo’s mother brings Kit, who is revealed to be the secret brother of Theo.

Therefore, here are 5 questions that need answering in The Buccaneers Season 3

The show reveals that Nan got pregnant when she was on her honeymoon with the Duke. However, she also traveled to Italy not too long after, where she was with her true love Guy. Therefore, the question on many viewers’ minds in The Buccaneers Season 3 will be about who is the actual father of the baby? Will the show go ahead with Theo being the father, or will there be a twist? Therefore, the next season of the show will be pretty interesting.


2. Will Lizzy keep Nan’s secret?

One of the big reveals in the second season of the show pertained to Nan being pregnant. However, things got even more complicated when Nan told Lizzy that she needs to keep this a secret from Theo. On the one hand, Lizzy and Nan’s friendship has already got weak and on the other, Lizzy is in a precarious situation as she loves Theo and does not want to lie to him. In an interview with TV Insider, actress Aubri Ibrag states that “I can’t imagine Lizzy lying about that…because then she would be hurting Theo if she lied…” Therefore, The Buccaneers Season 3 will be interesting as viewers will get to see if Lizzy is able to keep the secret.


3. The future of Nan and Guy’s relationship

In the second season of the show, Nan’s biological mother, Nell, played by Leighton Meester, was introduced. While she was left behind in America towards the end of the season, fans still want to know if the character will be back in The Buccaneers Season 3. Co-showrunner Beth Willis says to TV Insiders that, “[Leighton] was an absolute delight…we were so lucky that she was already a fan of the show…she said yes immediately…and she was so passionate about the role.”


5. How will Conchita navigate her life as a single mother and a businesswoman

In the show, Conchita’s beloved husband dies and she must now find out ways to provide for herself and her child. She is one of the few characters on the show who is independent and does not depend on society or any man. The fierce character therefore deserves a story arc in The Buccaneers Season 3. As a widow and a single mother, her story deserves attention as she must continue the Marable line with dedication. The new season of the show must explore the new chapter in Conchita’s life.


The Buccaneers is available on Apple TV+.
