Warning! SPOILERS about Daisy Jones & The Six episodes 7 & 8 ahead.Amazon’s Daisy Jones & The Six episode 7 shockingly introduced Daisy’s surprise fiancé, and while the way Daisy and Nicky’s relationship came to be doesn’t change too much from Taylor Jenkins Reid’s book, all of Daisy’s other romances do. Despite Daisy being almost solely focused on her career, she ended up being romantically involved with more people in Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six than the rock drama showed. However, Amazon’s Daisy Jones & The Six majorly alters Daisy’s romances, entirely eliminating the least important flings and heavily changing her love story with Nicky.

Daisy’s story changes in Daisy Jones & The Six are many, mostly involving her solo career nonexistent in the Amazon miniseries and her problems with the label when she is signed before collaborating with the Six. However, while the Amazon miniseries Daisy Jones & The Six often hints at Daisy’s loneliness issues that bring her to be surrounded by anybody, it never wholly shows the implications that her fears have on her love life. Instead, by having their future selves tell their story and reflect on what happened, Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six lets Daisy fully analyze what went wrong and why she couldn’t see that in the past. Here are all four romances that Daisy Jones & The Six changed.

Wyatt Stone Of The Breeze

Amazon’s Daisy Jones & The Six doesn’t go as far as including in the interviews also other personalities of LA in the seventies as Reid’s book does, so future Wyatt Stone’s perspective on Daisy claiming his song to be hers is never shown. However, Wyatt and Daisy’s relationship was much more central to the story in the book, as the song Wyatt was trying to write was about Daisy. So rather than rummaging through Daisy’s things to steal her lines, Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six had Daisy stubbornly change Wyatt’s chorus of the song he wrote about her because the song showed how he didn’t get her.

Instead, Wyatt’s behavior in the Amazon rock drama is more deceitful, as he actively copies Daisy’s words and uses them in a hit song without crediting Daisy in any way. While Wyatt Stone behaved just as despicably in Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six regarding crediting Daisy, at least the rest of the song was his, and he wrote it as a love song for Daisy, being inspired by their relationship and Daisy’s unwillingness to be vulnerable with any romantic partner. By playing down Daisy’s connection to Wyatt, Amazon’s Daisy Jones & The Six hides Daisy’s reluctance to open up to others intimately, which always defined her in the book.

Jim Blades Of Mi Vida

Daisy’s fling with Mi Vida frontman Jim Blades was entirely eliminated from the miniseries, contributing to the Daisy Jones & The Six book differences that can be minor or bigger. While Daisy never gave that much credit to Jim in Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six, only viewing him as one of the many musicians she dated, it was thanks to him that she started to perform and gain some kind of following. Indeed, Simone’s shows were also instrumental in getting Daisy known among LA’s music aficionados, just like Daisy Jones & The Six episode 2 shows, but it was a Mi Vida show that started it all.

It was imperative for future Daisy to establish how Jim’s ideas were infuriating for her in Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six, as his views focused more on her persona than her songwriting. However, Jim Blades’ interview only showed his awe at Daisy’s peculiar voice, which he believed would have made Daisy’s songs even more interesting, but only if she sang them after writing them. Daisy Jones & The Six season 1’s songs didn’t include Daisy Jones’ hits that made her known on her own before joining the Six, but even that success would have taken longer had Daisy not followed Jim’s lead and joined him onstage to sing.

Daisy's Manager Hank Allen

Daisy’s solo career in Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six wasn’t the product of a collaboration with Teddy Price like the Amazon rock drama shows. While their working relationship in the miniseries is more wholesome than anything Daisy ever experienced in the Daisy Jones & The Six book, Daisy was initially signed by a label for an album of songs that were already written by someone other than her, something she deeply despised and refused to do for some time. Her solo career manager Hank Allen tried to make her keep her end of the deal but only succeeded by giving her the drugs she needed to sleep and function.

While Hank’s missing from Daisy Jones & The Six, entirely changing how Billy eventually opens up to Daisy, Daisy’s relationship with Hank became muddied once she started collaborating with the Six. Indeed, not only did Hank ensure she showed up to work and supplied her with the drugs she needed, but Daisy also started to sleep with him as she was putting up with Billy’s opposition to working with her. This put Daisy in a particularly vulnerable position, as she depended on Hank for the drugs, his connections to the label, and her money, and all the while, she was also sleeping with him just because of his proximity. Consequently, these book changes have major ramifications.

Italian Aristocrat Niccolò Argento

Daisy’s relationship with Nicky in Amazon’s Daisy Jones & The Six episodes 7 and 8 is the least changed, given that Daisy surreptitiously married the aristocrat away from everyone else in Reid’s book. Besides Nicky not being Irish but an Italian aristocrat named Niccolò Argento in the book, the Amazon rock drama Daisy Jones & The Six manages to keep most of Daisy’s relationship with him similar to the book's, both in the way they brought the worst in each other regarding their drug abuse and in how fast the whirlwind romance started. However, one key change made Nicky a seemingly more positive character in Daisy Jones & The Six.

Although Daisy Jones & The Six episode 7 already hints at Nicky’s attempts to manipulate Daisy, their behavior before their wedding in front of Simone and Bernie and even on their own shows a somewhat stable couple, despite meeting less than a month before. Instead, Daisy and Nicky’s romance in the Daisy Jones & The Six book was much more unpredictable. Indeed, they met in Thailand by chance and started spending their every moment together, and Daisy even missed her friend Simone because she followed him on a spontaneous trip to Italy to meet his family.

While Amazon’s Daisy Jones & The Six episode 8 better depicts Daisy’s worsening drug use prompted by Nicky, Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six always portrayed their relationship as one with the highest highs and lowest lows. In it, Nicky was always quick to anger because of his jealousy and his obsession with Daisy’s past boyfriends and lovers, so much so that many interviewees assumed Daisy did everything she could to delay going home to him. Daisy Jones & The Six episode 8’s events eventually end their marriage also in the book, but the show’s portrayal of their romance doesn’t really do its most terribly manipulative features justice.
