‘UnREAL’ spoilers: Could there be real feelings for Adam and Rachel?

We’ve made it no secret that when it comes to Lifetime’s “UnREAL,” we are a rather big fan of Adam Cromwell as a character. Sure, he’s got a history as a womanizer and doesn’t always say the right thing, but we do think that there is a good heard in there and a desire to prove himself. Also, there’s an interesting chemistry between him and Rachel, and we have come to find ourselves ‘shipping for these two to get together at some point in the future.

While nothing is necessarily confirmed about the role of Adam in the final episodes, it does appear that there could be at least something more to the idea that these two characters, despite being very different, could become more romantically intertwined. Wouldn’t it make for an interesting end to the series if he chose to be with a crew member over anyone else? Freddie Stroma, who plays the character, teases this to TVLine:

“One of the things that he likes about her is the fact that he’s never been talked to the way she talks to him. He comes from a very wealthy background and people speak to him in a certain way and he kind of gets what he wants. When he meets Rachel, straight away from the first episode, she doesn’t give him what he wants. There’s a game in that. He finds it really attractive, and I think [it’s] slowly starting to turn into feelings rather than just a fun game.”

Stroma says that it is “possible” that Adam could have some sort of future on the show beyond just an “Everlasting” contestant, and that is going to be really interesting to watch. Here is someone whose journey seemingly will be over at the end of the season; yet, he’s a very popular character and part of the reason why the show works. What do you do with a guy like him?
