Scarlett later realizes that she still loves Gunnar, and in season 5, they both get back together. With the entry of a new character, Damien George Scarlett rather changes her focus and develops feelings for him as well. A turn of events takes place, and we, by the end of the 5th season, realize that Scarlett is pregnant and Damien is the father. Following her unfortunate miscarriage, she decides to volunteer at a horse farm and meets an army veteran Sean. Sean has feelings for her, but she does not reciprocate the same. However, it is the series finale that leaves us wondering about the mystery man to whom Scarlett is engaged.
Who does Scarlett end up with?
The answer to this will seem to appear out of the blue, but that was what the makers wanted. Scarlett O’ Connor is played by actress Clare Bowen. As a young girl who works at the Bluebird Cafe, Scarlett had been in an on and off relationship on-screen with the character Gunnar Scott portrayed by Sam Palladio. Despite the fact that Scarlett had the most number of romantic interests on the entire show, the makers decided to pair her up with a mystery man that has never ever been on the show. The end of the series reveals that Scarlett got engaged to a man as the scene shows the two on a tour with Deacon. That might sound weird, but it looks like, after all, it wasn’t that bad for the actress Clare Bowen. The mystery man was none other than the actress’s real-life husband and musician, Brandon Robert Young.
