Dear John Ending Explained Do they end up together at the end of Dear John? Yes, while not explicitly said, the final scene heavily implies that after John gets back from the Middle East (now with facial hair!) and sees Savannah in a coffee shop, the two will stay together and probably raise Alan, Tim's son and Savannah's stepson, together.. Similarly, it is asked, do they get together at the end of Dear John? While audiences loved the film's hopeful ending, Dear John had a different ending just days before its release that was faithful to the book's ending (spoiler alert: John and Savannah do not end up together on the page). Ironically enough, Seyfried predicted one of her future roles while promoting the movie with Tatum.
