Pearl was in love with Rose, and Rose did love Pearl but on a platonic/motherly level. The show literally laid everything hinting at that out there for you while still making it blatantly obvious.

If you can't see that that's a problem with you. That is made very clear that Pearl had feelings for Rose, as seen through Rose's Scabbard and Story For Steven had made it the most obivious though. Rose more then likley had felt for Pearl like a Life Partner, not in a romantic way, but since the gems don't age, they would more then likley be together until one or both of them died. Pearl is still mourning Rose in some ways, but has found Platonic love for Steven now.
