| Looking at these 2 you never would have guessed they would have a kid and be a family |
Since her interactions with Nick, Juliette has been peeking through the cool exterior of Eve. From threatening Adalind directly to trying to put seeds of doubt in Nick's head, I could see some little twinkle of hope in Eve that Nick's relationship with Adalind would break. And maybe some fans of the old couple see this as a ray of hope for Nick and Juliette to get back together. Let me just say that may not happen. It's not just because I'm a fan of Adalind that I say this. But I feel like the cards were stacked against Nick and Juliette ever since he became a Grimm in season 1. If Nick and Juliette had a normal life (in fact they were given a second chance to have one but Nick wanted to be a Grimm again; also Juliette volunteered to help) then I definitely would have seen them getting married and having a family. Their relationship seemed to be strong. Strong enough to overcome Adalind's sleeping/memory wipe curse and to even work together but it just wasn't strong enough to overcome Juliette becoming a hexenbeist.

| Who knew these 2 would be a great family |
I know. You're going to tell me "But Adalind is a Hexenbeist and she and Nick get along great!" While I agree there's some hypocritical evidence supporting Nick and Adalind the fact is Juliette has done stuff way worse than Adalind. Adalind was being manipulated by Reynard and also she was trying to protect herself against a Grimm. Once Adalind became a mother she seemed more human to us. She cursed Nick because he took her child from her. When they did that I had a hard time supporting the Grimm team. It just wasn't right to force that decision on Adalind and go behind her back after they helped her get away from the Royals. Adalind was very justified in her reaction.

| They were so happy... Where did they go wrong? |
Nick forgave Adalind for the sake of their son. After putting away his hatred he saw that Adalind wasn't inherently evil as all Grimms previously believed about hexenbeists. Grimms were basically outright killers not caring which Wesen were evil or good. It was black and white but Nick decided to be different. He knows that Wesen are human too with layers and even Hexenbeist seem to have a light side. Nick soon developed feelings for Adalind even if he hasn't said them out loud I believe there's some romantic feelings there.

| You know what they say about good things & endings? |
Adalind waited a while to tell Nick about becoming a hexenbeist again but instead of it breaking them Nick was calm about the whole thing even though he already knew. This shows that they're bonding and it seems to be stronger than his love for Juliette. It could be that they both grew up or (in Nick's case) have ties to the Wesen world so they have a stronger fortitude. Juliette helped to kill Nick's mother. She almost killed Monroe (making Nick pull the trigger!). And let's not forget she tried to kill Nick. If Trubel didn't show up then Nick would be dead. Some things just can't be forgiven or forgotten.

| The chemistry is just crackling like a roaring fire here! Who knew? |
The fact is some relationships just aren't strong enough to withstand such obstacles or a terrifying storm. Even in real life long term relationships end. Not because no one tried or even that they don't love each other but because some people grow apart or something that kept them together isn't enough anymore because they want different things. I do see some trouble for Adalind and Nick but I feel like Nick will forgive her for taking their son but an emotional Juliette with magical powers could be a problem. Will they overcome it? We'll see...
