As Nick Lachey had previously teased, this season saw one major change from those in the past: Instead of winning couples making new matches in the boardroom, the couples get to choose a collection of singles to bring into the competition. This way, all our favorite reality stars will get their moment in the spotlight!
Scroll to find out who left Part 1 of the season matched, where their relationship stands, and which couple got the boot before their relationship could fully take off.

Friends to lovers, anyone? During the third episode of the season, Temptation Island stars Yamen and Natalie took their relationship to the next level.

Jimmy P. & Ally
Status: Matched
Jimmy P. and Ally matched right off the bat, making them one of the two longest-running couples of the season. But that doesn’t mean that the Love Is Blind and Vanderpump Rules stars’ relationship has been all smooth sailing so far. After sharing a kiss on a date with Kassy, Jimmy’s heart was torn. Despite revealing that she hopes to be with someone who only wants her, Ally was thrilled that Jimmy wanted to match again during Episode 5.

Demari & Marissa
Status: Matched
Demari and Marissa have been locked in on each other since Day 1. But now things aren’t looking so good for what we once assumed was the season’s strongest couple. Ahead of the Episode 5 guys and gals split, Demari and Marissa had a massive argument after he told her that he liked her because of how she made him feel, instead of something specific about her. Now, they may be feeling some things out with the other singles who just entered the competition, including his ex, Bri.

Dave & Sophie
Status: Matched
Despite an original connection with Mackenzie and a brief flirtation with Ally, Dave ended Part 1 with Sophie, one of the new singles. The two haven’t known each other for too long, Dave told her, “I’m taking a chance because I want to get to know you. I don’t know, that’s all I know, but I’m trusting my gut.”

Chris & Kayla
Status: Eliminated
During Episode 3, Chris and Kayla got voted out of the competition the moment they realized that they had a true connection. According to the rest of the cast, the duo wasn’t “here in pursuit of a genuine connection.” We don’t know their relationship status today, but we wouldn’t be shocked if they continued their relationship outside of the competition.
