Even when Nick admits they are no longer together, he also adds that more time isn't going to help them because Juliette's a hexenbiest and he's a grimm. If that's not a show of misgivings on his part, I don't know what is.
What?! There is a huge difference between Nick not telling a normal person about the wesen-world, and a hexenbiest hiding her identity for her Grimm boyfriend. Why would Nick want to tell her right away? As a Grimm, he HAD to deal with it. Why would he place that burden on her? He only told Hank and Wu when they started seeing things and thought they had become insane.
When Nick made the reference about a Hexenbiest and a Grimm, Juliette was already marching towards the dark side. She threatened Nick and blamed everyone.
Again, Juliette had her reasons to begin with. The big question is why she became extremely evil.
This brings me to a post I have intended to comment on for a while:

It's been murdered, brought back to life, stuffed into someone else's body and forced to birth someone else's uber hexenbaby while being chased around the world by hunjager assassin's. That'd be enough to unbalance any spirit, and Frau Pech wasn't exactly Mary Poppins to begin with. So I wonder how many of Juliette's post transformation choices were really totally hers...
Firstly, this post is hysterically funny!
Secondly, I doubt that the “hexenbiest-soul” could fully explain her behavior.
Adalind, who was seen to be knowledgeable about this issues, seemed convinced that the “hexenbiest-soul” did play an important role. However, her own storyline tells a different story. She did not become a nice person when Nick took her powers. It’s hard to spot any real change in her behavior just before and after she drunk the suppression potion, and she did not turn evil when her powers returned in season 5. This indicates that the hexenbiest-nerve could not operate on its own. It only intensified attitudes and thoughts that were already present in the person.
