What they’re saying

“'Luke and I have been waiting for a little time after the series came out to tell you guys about him. We have been dating for a while. The series takes about a year to film then they have to decide what are the best scenes to have in LOTS.'”

— Georgie Harris, Love on the Spectrum star

“'For the record, I did not choose to break up with Georgie on a whim. I thought long and hard about it before I made a final decision.'”

— Connor Tomlinson

“'Actually, we both talked about it and we ultimately decided that we're just two different people, and not always in the same place, so we figured it best we go our separate ways.'”

— Connor Tomlinson

“'That was sort of at our request. We really, really want to be authentic and tell the true story... but I felt like this was a private moment that didn't need to be consumed.'”

— Lise Smith, Connor's mother

“'He wants an adult connection, and I think the trip to England really shined a light on where Georgie is on her journey and where she is in life, and where Connor is. And even though they were attracted to each other, I think Connor wanted to go a little bit deeper and have more handholding, maybe more of a physical relationship, and that maybe wasn't where Georgie was.'”

— Lise Smith, Connor's mother

What’s next

The couple's relationship and wedding planning will likely be a focus of future seasons of Love on the Spectrum.

The takeaway

Georgie and Connor's breakup highlights the unique challenges that individuals on the autism spectrum can face when navigating romantic relationships, but also showcases their resilience and ability to move forward.
