You Season 3: 12 Questions That Must Be Answered

3. Did Love Kill Her Previous Husband?

One popular and plausible fan theory circling the internet since season two aired is one about Love's previous husband James and the circumstances in which he died.

As an audience we aren't given much information regarding his passing except that his illness was unidentified and doctors couldn't find a treatment in time. Sudden deaths and illnesses happen all the time; and if Love were not a murdering schemer we would be inclined to be believe James died of a natural cause.

But couple the conflict Love and James had prior to his passing with Love's dangerous psychosis and the theory doesn't sound unlikely. Especially since there are a number of comments made about spiking or poisoning food throughout the second season, and Love's extensive knowledge as a chef would give her insight into poisonous foods.

The theory is just a theory at the end of the day, but the unresolved nature of James' death does cast a questioning shadow over her affection for Joe.

Once Joe starts harboring feelings for another woman besides Love, the scorned Chef might take matters into her own oven and bake herself some murder-flavored brownies to share amongst the neighbors?

I overthink a lot of things. Will talk about pretty much anything for a great length of time. I'm obsessed with General Slocum from the 2002 Spider-Man film. I have questions that were never answered in that entire trilogy!
