Euphoria viewers are convinced they know exactly what’s in store for fan favourite Jules.

Following a controversial premiere last week, the HBO series has treated viewers to episode two. It follows Rue (played by Zendaya) in her new job at strip club Silver Slipper, after Alamo (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) hired her in the first episode.
She forms a sexual relationship with stripper Angel (played by Priscilla Delgado), but Rue later checks the dancer into rehab. By the end of the episode, Rue has reunited with her former flame Jules (Hunter Schafer).
As we learned last week, Jules is allegedly a sugar baby for a mysterious figure who funds her lavish lifestyle. Although fans haven’t seen this unnamed man yet, many are convinced Nate (Jacob Elordi) is secretly Jules’ sugar daddy.

Taking to social media, one fan predicted: “Why do I feel like Nate is paying for Jules’ penthouse? That’s why he’s always so broke.”
Another viewer questioned: “Wait what if Jules’s sugar daddy is Nate and that’s why they are prolonging bringing Jules on screen and only hinting at the fact there is someone else.”
With another replying: “And maybe why he’s being shady with the money for the wedding.”
Despite taking over his dad’s business, Nate is in $550,000 debt and can’t afford to pay for fiancée Cassie’s (Sydney Sweeney) dream wedding.

It’s unclear how Nate got into such a deep financial hole, but fans think he has been sending Jules money and paying for her huge penthouse.
Viewers have also noted that Rue claimed Jules’ boyfriend is “living a double life,” which could point to Nate because his dad similarly led a secret life.
Those who have been following the show since season one will remember that Nate catfished Jules in high school, and it was heavily implied he had deeper feelings for her during the ordeal.
However, their relationship was mostly hostile throughout their younger years. It’s unlikely they have patched things up over just a handful of years, but fans will have to tune into the coming episodes to see if this theory actually has legs.
