ABCLet's be honest, we do not envy Rayna (Connie Britton) on Nashville right now.
Going into season three, the reigning queen of country music is in quite the romantic tangle. After years of will-they-won't-they back-and-forth with her soul mate Deacon (Charles Esten), he finally grew up and took responsibility for his actions, and proposed to her in the final moments of the season two finale in a scene that had us swooning for days. For days.
But there's one little problem preventing these star-crossed lovers from finally tying the knot and living happily ever after in season three...Rayna has been dating fellow country star Luke (Will Chase), and he had just pulled off a public proposal at a sold-out arena concert, getting down on one knee onstage in front of thousands of people.
So which extremely eligible (and swoon-worthy) bachelor will Rayna choose?
E! News has an exclusive first look at the season three premiere of Nashville, and in the clip, Rayna finally decides who she's going to marry! Watch the clip above now!
Will she choose Luke, the safe choice? He loves her immensely, they make beautiful music together that sells, he understands the life of a country star, he has a kid of his own so he also understands the life of a parent...but he's not Deacon.
So will she say yes to Deacon, the passionate choice, instead? He loves her immensely too, and they also make beautiful music together, he's the father of her eldest daughter and they truly are soul mates...but he comes with a lifetime of baggage.
While we would kill to have just one of these guys getting down on one knee for us, both of them are a little overwhelming. Seriously, Rayna's got her work cut out for her.
Nashville season three premieres Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 9 p.m. on ABC.
