Ted Lasso returned this week with an all-new episode on Wednesday, May 3. While it featured much less of the comic drama that made the previous episode special, this one delved into a more serious avenue, especially with the character of Keeley (played by Juno Temple). Fans may have already noticed that her character was in an offsetting middle ground from the previous episode onwards.
But this episode further complicated almost everything for the fan-favorite character. After Keeley engaged in a passionate romance with billionaire founder Jack (Jodi Balfour) in the previous couple of episodes, this episode saw one of Keeley's intimate videos get leaked online.
This resulted in some expected negative impacts but also some surprising ones, especially from Jack. It seems that this episode's events also put a dent in Roy (Brett Goldstein) and Keeley's chances of reconciliation.
Ted Lasso season 3 episode 8 is now streaming on Apple TV+.
Do Jack and Keeley break up in Ted Lasso season 3 episode 8?
Keeley has always been one of the strongest characters in Ted Lasso. Her relationship with Roy Kent was perhaps one of the best parts of the show so far. Even after their fallout earlier this season, her character has developed well. That was until Jack came in, her new female romantic interest, whose red flags were a source of concern for Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham) just an episode back.
While previous concerns about this love-bombing billionaire were not addressed at all after the previous episode somehow forced reconciliation with little conviction, this episode saw many darker shades of red flags as Jack indirectly sl*t-shamed and accused Keeley of making a video that got leaked.
This felt like a sloppy move from someone who claimed to love Keeley. Instead of supporting her girlfriend through this terrible time, Jack decided to draft an apology note for her, which was supposed to contain the damage and save the name of the company. The apology idea was centered around Keeley apologizing for making the video in the first place, a sexist move.
When Keeley refused to do this, Jack walked out on her, further solidifying the problematic relationship that Keeley had entered into. So not only was the latter's privacy hacked, but she was also subjected to slut shaming by her own boyfriend, who eventually left her, possibly breaking up with her. She also had a rather sour altercation with Roy in the middle, where the veteran midfielder and coach seemed to be cold about the matter.
Ted Lasso season 3 episode 8 ended with one silver lining as Jamie Tart (Phil Dunster) came forward and apologized for keeping the leaked video, which Keeley must have sent to him back in time. He blamed himself for the video getting leaked and apologized to Keeley, which she accepted.
But either way, Keeley's character was left in a very difficult and complicated spot by the writers of Ted Lasso. With only a handful of episodes to go before the ultimate conclusion, the show will have to find the right things to do with its characters very soon.
