"Julievette repeatedly says that none of them are the same any more, and this relationship is organic proof of it, one-time enemies left broken by the battles and somehow finding a refuge in each other."
the above quote about nick and adalind is probably what the writers were going for.
adalind and nick calling a truce for their son's sake made more sense than would be scenes of watching nick threatening a powerless adalind.
whatever the reasons the writers had for breaking up nick and juliette it didn't have anything with making room for adalind in nick's life.

Now we have always had the debate on what she knew and what she didn't know about what Kenneth planned, and not likely any on the forum will now change they mind on how they see this some she knew some she didn't know. So no reason to going back into that debate.Having finished the show, I now think Kelly's death wouldn't have been as big a stumbling block for Nick and Eve as i imagined at the time she died. The one thing I feel was constant from the very beginning of the show was that fundamentally, Nick and Juliette wanted very different things in life even though they loved each other. They had so much crap happen from the moment Nick became a Grimm and I don't think they dealt with it accordingly, thus building a stronger relationship from the trials they faced as a couple. Communication wasn't as open as it should have been. The were broken down until they finally couldn't get back up again.
The irony is that Nick and Adalind had an even worse set up but somehow made it (not talking the twenty year time jump) and I think that had more to do with neither of them having great expectations of their relationship and actually finding middle ground that worked for them where Nick and Juliette couldn't make the necessary compromises within themselves to make things work when Nick's Grimm made things abundantly difficult for them.
