Before Lizzy’s wedding on The Buccaneers, the bride-to-be was treated to a visit from Dylan Mulvaney.
During the Wednesday, July 16, episode of the hit Apple TV+ series, Lizzy (Aubri Ibrag) received advice from a character played by Mulvaney, 28.
“Don’t do it. Don’t take this heavenly man off the market,” Mulvaney said in reference to Lizzy’s fiancé, Hector (Jacob Ifan). “How is it fair on the rest of us if you get this face? If this is the face you get to see from morning until night your whole life?”
Lizzy’s upcoming nuptials to Hector appeared too good to be true amid her growing feelings for Theo (Guy Remmers). The situation is even more complicated with Theo being married to Nan (Kristine Froseth), who is still in love with Guy (Matthew Broome).

According to the official episode synopsis, the Buccaneers “prepare for Lizzy’s wedding day” and “Nan returns to face the music as things get more complicated.” The historical drama, which premiered in 2023, is based on an unfinished novel of the same name by Edith Wharton. The Buccaneers follows wealthy American women and their experiences in London high society as they deal with culture clashes, differing approaches to tradition, friendship and love.
Ibrag, 23, recently teased what fans can expect after Lizzy slept with Theo before her wedding to Hector.
“When I got the scripts and stuff, I was like, ‘I suppose this kind of makes sense,’” she told Today earlier this month. “I don’t think it’s anything that either of us expected, because we don’t really interact in the first season. Like, at all. Just briefly when I say ‘hello’ in the background or something. But it was a bit of a surprise.”
Remmers, 30, meanwhile, could see why the story drew the characters together.
“They’re both characters who were kind of unfairly wronged in the first season, and were stung by love [by those they trusted].” he explained. “So, when we started reading the episodes, it actually made sense that these two people would find each other.”

The actor went on to clarify that he understands the “questionable decisions” Theo made so far in season 2.
“I think all these characters that make these questionable decisions come from a place of love and being hurt,” he added. “I can kind of see each character’s perspective and why they do those things. Theo really has to deal with lots of discoveries and hurt and heartbreak. And he does spiral out of control at a point and does some things that are probably a little bit out of character and [that] he may regret.”
In addition to Ibrag, Ifan, Remmers, Froseth and Broome, the show also stars Alisha Boe, Josie Totah, Imogen Waterhouse, Mia Threapleton and Christina Hendricks. Josh Dylan, Barney Fishwick, Amelia Bullmore and Fenella Woolgar make up the rest of the cast. Season 2 also introduced Us to several newcomers including Leighton Meester, Greg Wise, Grace Ambrose and Maria Almeida.
New episodes of The Buccaneers stream Wednesdays on Apple TV+.
