All our fave characters from Jenny Han's beloved YA romance novel The Summer I Turned Pretty have been brought to life by talented actors on-screen thanks to the Prime Video series. Season 2 of The Summer I Turned Pretty is hitting our screens this July, and while the main character, Belly, is 16 in the series, the actress who plays her is actually a little older IRL. This tends to be the case with a lot of teen shows like High School Musical: The Musical: The Series and Never Have I Ever because actors under the age of 18 are only permitted to work a certain number of hours. Romantic storylines also tend to call for some steamy scenes, so it makes sense that producers cast actors at a more appropriate age.
So, if you're wondering just how much older the actors are than the characters they portray on the show, look no further. Here are the real ages of the cast of The Summer I Turned Pretty.
Lola Tung as Isabel "Belly" Conklin
Age: 20
On the show, our main girl Belly turns 16 during her vacation at Cousins Beach. In real life, Lola Tung is 19 and has already wrapped up her first year at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Sean Kaufman as Steven Conklin
Age: 23
Belly's older brother Steven is preparing for college in the first season of the series, so he's probably around 17 or 18 years old. According to several sources online, Sean is 23 in real life. This could potentially check out because according to his resumé, he graduated from SUNY's Purchase Acting Conservatory in 2022.
Gavin Casalegno as Jeremiah Fisher
Age: 23
Jeremiah is the same age as Belly on the series, but according to a May 2022 interview with V Magazine, Gavin is 23 IRL.
Christopher Briney as Conrad Fisher
Age: 25
Conrad is 17 years old on the show, but Chris Briney graduated from Pace University in New York in 2020. According to Famous Birthdays, the actor was born on March 24, 1998 and if the math is mathing, that means he's 25.

According to Idol Birthdays' database, Jackie Chung will celebrate her 62nd birthday on July 10, right before season 2 premieres.

Steven's girlfriend and fellow debutante Shayla is 16 just like Belly, but Minnie is a little older in real life. According to her website, she's set to graduate from Columbia University in 2024, which would make her a sophomore in college.
Summer Madison as Nicole
