Exclusive Interview
‘Perfect Match’ Star Hannah Burns Shares Her Love Story With Fiancé Louie Crow for the First Time (VIDEO)
Hannah Burns has made it clear that she is not allowed to share anything about her love life after her appearance, or lack thereof, on Perfect Match Season 3 — at least, until now.
When Netflix revealed the full cast of Perfect Match Season 3, fans were thrilled to see that The Mole breakout star was cast as one of the eligible singles headed to Tulum to find romance with other reality TV stars. Following the announcement, Hannah shocked fans by posting her official cast portrait with the caption, “& now I’m engaged 🙊💍.”
However, fans quickly learned that the fan-favorite Netflix reality star had little to no screen time on the dating show. This meant that the show gave no insight into her love life, let alone the man she is engaged to, who is also the father of her child — yes, she’s also expecting!
To celebrate the Season 3 finale of Perfect Match, Hannah spoke with Swooon about her fiancé, details about her pregnancy, and publicly sharing their unabridged love story for the first time. The reality star is engaged to none other than Louie Crow!

If you’re thinking, “Wait, who is that?” You’re not alone! As Hannah told Swooon, “I wanted to announce my baby daddy, finally. His name is Louie Crow, and he’s actually not on Perfect Match at all, so surprise!”
According to Hannah, she knew Louie long before any of the Perfect Match guys. “Louie was a baseball player,” she revealed. “He moved here from San Diego to Scottsdale a couple years ago, and he was in the club nightlife scene. We met here in Scottsdale, and we were kind of hooking up and talking on-and-off.” Today, Louie does sales and “likes to keep his life very private.”
As it turns out, Hannah and Louie dated once before. However, at the time, they were definitely not a perfect match. “He was not ready for me,” she admitted. “I wanted to move to Miami, actually, so I was not even planning on staying in Scottsdale. We just couldn’t figure it out and make it work. But we [had] already started falling in love, at least. I’ll speak for me, but I just couldn’t see a future with him at that point in time.”
Right before Perfect Match began filming, Hannah and Louie spent her birthday together. “We actually spent the day together and got into a huge argument [because] I had seen that he was still doing his thing” as a “Scottsdale boy,” Hannah said. She then added, “If you’re from Scottsdale, you know how these boys are. Dating in Scottsdale is worse than being on Perfect Match. It’s a nightmare. You cannot trust these men to be loyal, or anything like that. So I knew in my head it wasn’t anything serious.”
Ultimately, Hannah accepted her invitation to Perfect Match because she wanted to move on from Louie. “I went on the show [thinking] I’m gonna go get over him on reality TV. Like, what better way to get over somebody than to not only get under somebody else, but with multiple beautiful men?” she said. Of course, she laughed and noted, “That was not the case when I got there, obviously.”
Knowing that Hannah had left her situationship to date eligible reality TV bachelors in Tulum, we couldn’t help but ask what brought Hannah and Louie back together. She revealed that all the off-camera time she had in Tulum was a blessing in disguise. “I was not in the first six episodes [of Perfect Match], but I was in Tulum for like two weeks, sitting in my hotel room just thinking about this man,” Hannah explained. “I just had this gut feeling that I made a mistake, and that I really should have tried to make it work with him and been honest about my feelings and how deep they were for him, but I wasn’t.”
When she finally entered the competition, nothing changed. “I went into the house, and I wasn’t connecting with anybody the way that I connected with Louie.” In retrospect, Hannah was shocked she didn’t form a connection. She pointed out, “I’ve been on a show before [The Mole] where I did fall for somebody, and it was instant.” This time around, “I just kept comparing them to Louie and the conversations we had, and how much more genuine and deep and authentic it was, and I just really felt like I had already found my perfect match.”

When the Perfect Match contestants got their phones back, she immediately contacted him. Hannah told Swooon, “We got our phones back when we were done, but we still had a few days [of filming], and this man flew to Tulum. [He] was like, ‘I’m coming. You’re the love of my life. I don’t want to spend another day without you.’ So he flew to Tulum, and we ended up staying in Tulum and had a vacation right after the show ended.” Ultimately, Hannah was proud to confirm, “I definitely found my perfect match in Tulum, just not the way everyone thought.”
Following their vacation, Hannah and Louie moved in together almost immediately. “We already knew each other, so it was like a seamless transition from Perfect Match back into my real life. Now [we] live in a house together, and we have two dogs, a Doberman and a Cocker Spaniel, who are like our babies right now, before our baby comes,” she gushed.
On July 17, Netflix hosted its annual summer break event, celebrating reality stars from across the Netflix Reality Universe in 2025. At the event, Hannah debuted her baby bump, revealing that she is expecting a baby with a “mystery fiancé.” After waiting a month to share the big news, she and Louie are proud to announce that they are expecting a “rainbow baby.”
Hannah has been very candid on social media about her PCOS diagnosis, which led her to believe she could not have children. “I actually experienced two miscarriages before getting this rainbow baby. So we’re very excited, and that was really, really hard,” she said. “He was my rock through that and really supported me physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally. I think that really solidified everything I already felt in my heart.”
When it comes to an official timeline of their engagement and pregnancy, Hannah shared that as of August, she and Louie have been together for around 11 months. Looking back at that time, she reflected, “We knew we were getting engaged, and the pregnancy, the first one was obviously an accident, and then the second one happened three weeks before I got pregnant with this baby.”
Two weeks after her second miscarriage, Hannah started experiencing pregnancy symptoms again. She recalled, “I did not think I was pregnant because, mind you, I had just miscarried.” Eventually, Hannah started taking pregnancy tests. When they came back positive, she considered that the second miscarriage may have been a false alarm, but her doctor confirmed that she was pregnant again with a new baby.
“I guess that was just God really wanting me to be a mom in that moment. He was just sending me little souls until one stuck. It was a crazy whirlwind of emotions because I feel like I was grieving the loss of a child, but then finding out I was pregnant again,” Hannah told Swooon.
On June 13, Louie took Hannah to her favorite hotel, The Phoenician in Scottsdale, to surprise her with a proposal in front of her friends and family, who were waiting to run out after she said yes. The couple will be going on a baby moon in September, continuing the celebration leading up to the birth. That being said, Hannah confirmed that they are holding off on planning the wedding until after their baby is born.
Regarding her feelings about getting cut from Perfect Match Season 3, Hannah said she learned that her story would not be heavily featured in Perfect Match from an unconventional source. “I found out from a reporter who got early access to the show that I was cut, which was obviously really disappointing,” Hannah confessed. “Obviously, 14-year-old Hannah is just screaming and crying at the opportunity to be on Netflix or even be paid to be on a TV show, even if it’s for 10 seconds. So I’m extremely, extremely grateful for just being included, especially with some of these bigger reality stars.”
She continued, “Finding out from a reporter was a little bit disheartening, and then also just being told that I had to keep my engagement and fiancé and my baby and my life a secret when I saw Louis [Russell] announcing his relationship with Huda [Mustafa], [and] Ollie and AD announcing [their engagement and pregnancy].”
According to Hannah, all of the castmates received the same NDA. “No one is allowed to share their relationship,” Hannah said. “You all are under contract. You signed up for a dating show. It will spoil the show if you announce your relationship. So like, duh, that makes sense.” The frustration came when cast members with more screen time made their own announcements.

In the end, Hannah expressed that she has realized that her reason for being on Perfect Match was “to realize that the love of my life was actually not there, and also to meet my best friends. Maybe it wasn’t for screen time or for clout. And I don’t need that.” Even so, she is stoked to watch her seasons of The Mole and Perfect Match back with her baby years down the road.
