Who is Laura’s boyfriend, Birkan?

Laura’s boyfriend, Birkan, is a 26-year-old from Turkey, whom she describes as “the man of my dreams.” As Laura puts it, “Birkan has this amazing bad boy aesthetic. He’s got a smoking hot tattoo, and he is straight off the pages of a romance novel.” Per TLC, “Birkan is quiet and philosophical, with a mysterious past.” For that reason, right now, it’s unclear if Birkan is Laura’s Rhysand or Tamlin. Only time will tell!

Who is Laura’s best friend, Michal?

When Laura confirmed that she was dating someone new, Laura was quick to add, “It’s not Michal.” Ironically, Michal was standing right next to her. According to Laura, Michal is her best friend. However, she made a surprising admission. “I think my best friend has feelings for me that are more than just friendship,” she said. In the trailer, Michal quipped, “I can’t compete with 6’1” [and] hot.” While it’s clear that Michal has feelings for his bestie, the cards are still out on whether Laura could feel the same.
