‘Perfect Match’ Season 2: Are Any Couples Still Together Today?
Let’s be honest: Perfect Match Season 2 was unhinged in the best possible way. From chaotic pairings to sudden betrayals to that kissing game, Netflix’s star-studded dating show gave us drama, delusion, and a whole lot of emotional whiplash. But now that the dust, the tequila, and the lip gloss have all settled, are any of these couples still together in the real world?
We did the dirty work (read: watched every episode and lurked every post-breakup quote) to find out what happened after the cameras stopped rolling. Before the third season premieres and changes the Netflix reality dating show game, let’s catch up on the Perfect Match Season 2 cast and see who actually made it to their forever. Who did you expect to last? Let us know in the comments below.
Perfect Match, Season 3, August 1, Episodes 1-6, Netflix
Perfect Match, Season 3, August 8, Episodes 7-9, Netflix
Perfect Match, Season 3 Finale, August 15, Netflix
Nigel Jones & Christine Obanor
Let’s start with the winners, even if we’re still scratching our heads about how they pulled that off. Christine and Nigel were only paired for two days before the final vote — it’s like trying to comprehend the plot of a Christopher Nolan film. They were both alums of Too Hot to Handle, but didn’t actually connect until Kaz Bishop ditched Christine for Micah Lussier, leaving her open to Nigel’s late-game arrival.
They claimed a bond formed in the so-called “leftovers villa,” and some contestants speculated that a pact among the outcasts led to their win. Conspiracy or not, Christine and Nigel took their prize trip to Thailand and dated on and off for about nine months.
“We separated,” Nigel confirmed to Tudum in June 2024. Christine, meanwhile, revealed she even suggested couples therapy before their breakup.
“I have learned from our relationship that two people [who] have not fully healed from past traumas are only going to cause more damage,” she said. “I have given my all…but a partnership can only work when both are fully committed.”
Current Status: Broken up. Christine and Nigel both appear to be single.
Harry Jowsey & Jessica Vestal
This was the couple everyone couldn’t stop watching. Harry Jowsey, resident Netflix F-boy, and Jessica Vestal, sharp-tongued queen from Love Is Blind. It was giving enemies to lovers (to enemies again).
Harry initially went for Elys Hutchinson, but ultimately chose Jess, even discussing meeting her daughter, Autumn. But just when things looked real, behind-the-scenes footage revealed Harry got flirty with Melinda Berry — and Jess was done. She briefly gave Izzy Zapata a shot, but there were zero sparks.
After the show, Jess moved to Los Angeles and tried things again with Harry. That lasted about a year before the inevitable split.
“I wouldn’t quite call us friends, but we’re definitely not enemies,” Jess told Tudum. “Harry is Harry.”
Current Status: Broken up. Jess is single. Harry is looking for a wife (allegedly).
Bryton Constantin & Elys Hutchinson
Elys might just be the new Francesca Farago: always booked, never bothered. After being blindsided by Harry’s switch to Jess, she explored things with Justin Assada, then ended up with Bryton Constantin. The vibes seemed strong in the moment, but it didn’t last beyond the show.
Elys told Tudum that matching with Bryton demonstrated “terrible judgment on [her] behalf” and said they split due to “a lot of drama after filming with him.”
She’s now thriving and “madly in love with a gorgeous boy,” whom she’s been dating for nearly a year. His identity remains private, but she’s clearly moved on.
Current Status: Broken up. Elys is in a serious relationship. Bryton has stayed quiet.
Stevan Ditter & Alara Taneri
We were rooting for you! We were all rooting for you! Alara Taneri and Stevan Ditter were the literal perfect match of this show and absolutely robbed in the finale. They coupled up fairly early and barely glanced elsewhere since. They both shared an excitable and playful energy. But love doesn’t always conquer time zones. After filming, Alara returned to London and Stevan to Los Angeles, which proved a logistical nightmare.
“Don’t try and date someone who lives in another country,” Stevan said. “We just really weren’t able to speak. By the time I was waking up, she was going to bed. I am not always on my phone like people think that I am. I barely post on social media, so it just didn’t work out in that sense.”
Since then, Alara has moved in with fellow contestant Micah in Los Angeles. While some fans are hoping for a Stevan-Alara reunion now that they’re in the same zip code, Alara’s cryptic Instagram captions suggest she’s already over it.
“At the bare minimum a moment for the outfit,” she wrote under a photo of Stevan hugging her from behind. Oof.
Tolú Ekundare chimed in with “our looks were the best thing to come out of this show,” implying that their matches left something to be desired. Roomie Micah commented, “Heavy on the caption.”
Current Status: Broken up. Alara’s rumored to be single, but her friendship with Micah is going strong.
Chris Hahn & Tolú Ekundare
Let’s be honest, Chris and Tolú were one of the most controversial matches. Some fans — and fellow contestants — suspected Chris only pursued Tolú to stay in the house. But let’s not forget, Tolú is gorgeous and hilarious, so why wouldn’t he be into her?! The pair stayed loyal after matching, except for when Chris told Xanthi Perdikomatis that he had some regrets about not exploring all his options during the boy’s day mixer.
However, the pair split after filming. “There were ups and downs with my experience with Chris in the house. I don’t regret it. I learned a lot about myself, what I want in a relationship, and what I will never settle for in a partner. So fortunately for me, our relationship did not go past Mexico,” she told Tudum. “My relationship with Chris as of current is non-existent and I intend to keep it that way.”
Current Status: Broken up. Tolú is single and thriving. Chris has kept a low profile.
Kaz Bishop & Micah Lussier
Our girlie Micah deserves so much better. She was all-in with Kaz from their first match, while Kaz was out there sampling the entire cast. He smooched Holly Scarfone in front of her during a group game. He chose to match with Christine (not even Holly) over Micah, and luckily, she was saved by Izzy. Then Kaz came crawling back, and the pair tried to defend their relationship to the rest of the crew.
This strong relationship apparently didn’t last, though.
“We’re not together. Our relationship stayed in Mexico where it was meant to live … and die,” Micah told Tudum. “I definitely don’t regret spending my time with him. There was a lot of drama and turmoil, but also a lot of really great and fun moments that I’m really happy I experienced. He’s just not the person for me.”
Kaz claimed that Micah “sent me a text message saying that she truly hates me” before they even left the show. “It escalated very quickly. … I hold no grudges anyway.”
Micah has since moved in with Alara in Los Angeles and seems very much unbothered.
Current Status: Broken up. Micah’s single, glowing, and probably dodging Kaz’s texts.
So, zero couples in total. Let’s hope Perfect Match Season 3 does better. We know we’ve got AD and Ollie at least!
