‘The Perfect Couple’ finale revealed who was responsible for Merritt's (Meghann Fahy) death — and what other secrets the Winbury family was hiding
Netflix's The Perfect Couple posed a lot of questions about a mysterious murder — but did every question get answered?The Perfect Couple, which debuted on Thursday, September 5, followed a wedding weekend that gets uprooted when a body was found on the beach. The series premiere revealed that the bride's maid of honor, Merritt , was the person who was killed, but it wasn't until the finale that fans found out who was actually responsible.
Throughout the series, Greer tried to keep up the facade of a perfect marriage to sell more of her books. Greer even kept the public from knowing that she was the one actually funding the Winbury lifestyle since her husband, Tag, had no money to his name despite having a family trust. At the end of the series, Greer finally left Tag after turning a blind eye to his many indiscretions in the past. Greer used her life as inspiration for what was likely another bestseller, and six months later she found Amelia in London. Amelia got a copy of Greer's book — which appeared to be based on their shared experiences — and that opened a door for them to remain in touch in the future.It was obvious from the very beginning that Tag was hiding just about everything.
In her personal life, Amelia spent the whole season conflicted by her feelings for Benji's best man, Shooter . Amelia and Shooter had a past that no one knew about, which led to the bride briefly giving into those feelings. Benji saw the couple kissing, and by the end of their time in Nantucket, the wedding was off.
The night of her death, Tag made it clear to Merritt that he wanted her to abort their unborn child. She confided in Amelia, who was less than pleased about the situation. Merritt went on to have a conversation with Thomas' mistress Isabel about her predicament, but it was her talk with Abby that ultimately took a turn.While she appeared to be unaware of what was going on around her, the pregnant Abby knew Thomas was having an affair with Isabel.
