What To Know

  • Courteney Landis stars on Married at First Sight Season 20.
  • Courteney was matched with Nick Uhlenhuth.
  • Courteney played college basketball before settling down in Texas.

Since Married at First Sight Season 20 began in mid-July, viewers have gotten to know Courteney Landis, who decided to take the leap alongside 13 other Seattle-based singles.

Courteney knew what she wanted in a husband when she went on the show. She told Swooon, “What I’m looking for in a spouse is someone to be my prince charming, someone who wants to grow together, work towards being a team, and ultimately my best friend. It’s not that hard.”

She continued, “Red flags for me in a relationship are an insecure man, someone that can’t keep up with me in the gym, looks in the mirror more than me, and a guy that’s bad at pickleball. Sorry, not sorry. A green flag in a relationship for me is a man that knows how to work with his hands. Yes, in both ways.”

If you want to get to know Courteney further off-screen while the show is airing, you’ve come to the right place. Get all the details on her job, bodybuilding and athletic history, what we know of her current relationship status, and more below.

What is Courteney’s job?

Courteney works in cloud strategy and business development at Oracle, an IT company in Austin, Texas, per her LinkedIn. She graduated from Notre Dame de Namur University in 2020.

“Most people would be surprised to know that I am all of 5’1″, and I played college basketball,” she told Swooon. Courteney started her collegiate sports career at a junior college in Oregon — where her family lives, and she hopes to settle down once she has kids — and transferred to NDNU, a Division II school in Belmont, California. Her sister, who appeared on MAFS Season 20, played on the same team for a year.

Courteney has kept up with athletics since graduating. She’s a bodybuilder — you can see her in a 2021 competition here — and her mom has competed with her before.

How old is Courteney?

Courteney decided to get married at first sight at 28 years old.

Who did Courteney marry on Married at First Sight Season 20?

Courteney was matched with Nick Uhlenhuth, who has previously appeared on reality shows like The Circle and Perfect Match. Nick fit Courteney’s athletic requirement, having played lacrosse in high school and college. They aligned in that they had similar family goals, didn’t want a super religious partner, and leaned more conservative politically.

There was banter and attraction right off the bat at their wedding, though Courteney did bring up her concerns about Nick’s reality TV show history at the reception. During their honeymoon, some issues arose: Courteney felt like playfulness and fun were missing in their relationship, while Nick thought there was a lack of physical affection and wondered if she was into him. They talked it out, but both topics came up again when they returned to live together in Seattle.

Further, Nick wasn’t sure if he ever wanted to move to Oregon down the line, while Courteney did. At Episode 9’s group therapy session, another hurdle came up: The experts expressed their concern that Nick was too polished and filtered, and Courteney agreed, explaining that she didn’t feel like she knew him yet. When asked what they would do if the day had been Decision Day, they both said they were undecided.

Are Courteney and Nick still together?

We won’t know for sure if Courteney and Nick are still together until later in the season, though as of Episode 9, they haven’t called it quits. We can guess from social media: Courteney and Nick are the only couple who still follow each other on Instagram, which could mean they’re together or that they ended things on good terms.

Both have shared some behind-the-scenes anecdotes on Instagram, posting content together on multiple occasions that was filmed during the season. They have also interacted with each other in the comments. Nick pointed out that the show cut his and Courteney’s “beach game competitions.”

“We’ll never know if you ACTUALLY won our mini beach Olympics … I was pretty fast in that race @nickuhlenhuth lol,” Courteney responded.

Per Courteney’s Instagram, she splits time between Austin, Texas and Oregon. It seems she was doing that even before MAFS, per her LinkedIn. She started working at Oracle’s Austin-based offices in 2022. Nick also currently lives in Austin, but he was based there before the show. In an Instagram video posted on July 20, Courteney wrote, “PART 1: WHO TF DID I MARRY?!”
