Money Heist aka La Casa De Papel: The Steaming Love Story of Rio & Tokyo Throughout the Seasons

The Spanish series Money Heist aka La Casa De Papel is currently the most talked series across the globe. Apart from the sharp and intelligent series, nail-biting suspense and stellar star car, the show has from the beginning emphasized on the love story of Rio and Tokyo. The love story that caused some major changes in the heist and the love story that set heist in Bank of Spain in motion in season 3.

At the beginning of season 1, we saw that Rio confessed his feelings towards Tokyo by giving her an engagement badge. He told her how serious he was for her and asked her if she needed some serious commitment which he was ready, however, Tokyo was not much into him and did not confess anything until she saw him being shot by the gun in front of her eyes, that is when she started to realize that Rio actually means something to her.

But, however, there are instances showing Rio who is madly in love with her but Tokyo on the other hand, is not really up for a serious relationship.

Although their love story has always looked real but at the end of season 3 they decided to part their ways. In season 3, they are seen spending some quality time at their favorite place but however Rio is taken by Panama officials, and to get him back she asks the professor for help and the team is reunited and they agree to let a few hostages free in exchange for him.

After he is brought back they stay together and cuddle up for a while but eventually break up.  They both, especially in Tokyo, believe that they have no future ahead and whatever good moments they had with each other will only remain in the past now. They both realized that because of their love connection, they all had to pay a huge price and if they remain together further it can affect everyone’s lives. 

Another major reason for them splitting up?

Yes, another probability why they are not seen in season 4 is because Tokyo confesses to Rio that she cheated on him with Denver which upsets him a lot and he makes sure that he won’t get back with Tokyo after this.

Even in the ending episodes of season 4, they both are not seen leaving together which shook the public because their love affair was the one main reason because of which the heist things were being affected. Also, there is no such evidence even throughout the entire 4th  season that they might get back.
