Lara Jean Covey is back! 8 adorable moments from To All the Boys franchise that fans still love

As XO, Kitty is coming with its third sequel on April 2, 2026, the makers have surprised the fans with Lana Condor's return as Lara Jean Covey. Before witnessing the most loved sister duo, let's revisit the 8 adorable scenes from the original franchise that still feel genuine, cosy, and emotionally heartwarming.

The story begins with Lara Jean (Lana Condor), who writes a letter to whoever she crushes on, expressing her feelings in that particular letter. After her sister, Kitty, discovers her hidden letters, she posts them all to the individual for whom Lara wrote the letters, leading her into massive trouble as Lara's private feelings are suddenly exposed to her crush, causing unexpected complications.

Lara Jean and Peter Kavinsky enter a fake relationship to serve their mutual interests: Peter wants to make his ex-girlfriend, Gen, jealous, and Lara Jean needs to hide her crush on her sister's ex-boyfriend, Josh. They mutually invent a contract with rules to manage their public persona, but the fake arrangement quickly evolves into deep romantic feelings for each other.

Both go to a party, where they learn that Gen will be there as well. Showcasing their fake relationship, a cute and real one, Peter hints at the idea of setting each other's photos as their lock screen wallpaper.

During a school ski trip, Peter invites Lara to come to the hot tub, seeking to talk about his feelings. Both admit they like each other, leading to a passionate, romantic make-out session. While they actually just kiss, a sudden video flashes on everybody's screens, showing Peter and Lara having sex in the hot tub.

After Lara and Peter enjoy their bowling date, Peter expresses his vulnerability regarding his estranged father, claiming that feeling unchosen by his parents is the worst pain. In response to this, Lara Jean kisses his hand and says, "I choose you, Peter Kavinsky," to which he replies, "I choose you too."

As both Lara and Peter get enrolled in different colleges and get ready to face the long-distance phase, Lara Jean decides to make a sentimental memory box for Peter Kavinsky to commemorate their high school relationship and the precious moments they spent together over the years.

Dr Dan Covey (John Corbett) proposes to his neighbour, Trina Rothschild (Sarayu Blue), after sharing quality time, liking and knowing each other. While saying goodbye to Peter, Lara Jean witnesses the proposal from across the street. She watches her father take this step, which serves as a sweet, mature counterpoint to her own tumultuous romantic life.

Following the long-distance stress and anxiety, Lara Jean remains in immense fear, which leads Peter to break up with her. After a few days, he realises his mistake and surprises her at her father's wedding, writing a new love letter in her yearbook.
