‘Sneaky Links: Dating After Dark’ Season 1: Which Couples Are Still Together?
[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for the Sneaky Links: Dating After Dark Season 1.]
Four couples made it to check out, but not every couple was made to last outside of the Sneaky Links motel.
On May 21, Netflix hard-launched its newest dating reality TV show, Sneaky Links: Dating After Dark, which brought together a group of non-committal singles to find love in the Sneaky Links motel. The catch? Each one of them had previously been hooking up with one of the other guests.
After 10 episodes of PDA, bombshell cast additions, indecisive tacos, and, of course, tons of sneaking around, it was time for the Sneaky Linkers to either check out of the hotel as a couple or leave out the back on their own. However, to our surprise, none of the original sneaky links (Manny and Samira, Angelique and Travis, Avery and Colt, Nicole S. and Brandon, Zoe and Kyle, and Nicole V. and Travis) even made it to the end of the show.
As Sneaky Links host Chloe Veitch shared with Swooon, the fact that none of the original sneaky links left together is “such a powerful message: You’ve got how many people in a motel with their sneaky links that they’re supposed to have feelings for, and none of them made it out alive. They were partnered with other people, and they wanted something else. For people watching the show, it’s almost like: ‘Wake up! Your sneaky link is not the one!'”
Even though none of the original sneaky links made it past their FWB stage, we can share that four newly-formed couples made it to check out. However, not all of them left the motel together, and according to Veitch, filming ended about a year ago, and what has happened since was a “curveball” ending that no one will see coming. Swooon has exclusive details about one couple that split just a month after the cameras stopped rolling. Plus, insight on the off-screen drama.
Wondering who’s still together? Scroll to see which couples checked out of the Sneaky Links motel as an item, and check back here for updates on the Sneaky Links couples.
Sneaky Links: Dating After Dark, Season 1, Streaming Now, Netflix
Avery & Manny
Status: Still Together
While Manny Garcia checked into the hotel with his decade-long situationship, Samira Valentina, he left with Avery following a season-long slow burn.
During an interview with Swooon on May 29, 2025, Angelique Wilcox confirmed that Manny and Avery are “for sure” still together. Avery then hard-launched her relationship with Manny on Instagram with the caption: “(Mostly) can’t believe I met u a whole year ago @netflix”, while Manny confirmed “Cat is out of the bag!!!”
Kelsey & Colt
Status: Split
The biggest breakout star from Sneaky Links, Colt Fason, was caught in a major love triangle between his first connection, Angelique Wilcox, and bombshell addition Kelsey Tomlin. Ultimately, Colt and Kelsey made it to the end of their stay at the Sneaky Links motel together. Despite how taken aback Kelsey looked when Colt told her he loved her at checkout, they left as a couple.
Unfortunately, shortly after filming ended, the couple broke things off due to the stress of transitioning their relationship from the motel to the real world. As Colt shared with Swooon, “There was just some extra pressure and stress and anxiety and things like that” they hadn’t faced when they were in the motel.
However, on May 28, 2025, Kelsey and Angelique posted an Instagram collab captioned “Turns out we weren’t the problem,” reminding us that there are two (or three) sides to every story. The unexpected besties appear to be so close, there is even fan speculation that Kelsey and Angelique are dating, as their costar Zoé put on her Instagram story that they are “the couple we deserved.”
Zoé & Travis
Status: Still Together
From the first episode of Sneaky Links, we knew Travis Arenas and Zoé Martin would be endgame. While they both took the time to get to know other guests, including Nicole Serrano and Corinthian Lyles, they consistently handled their relationships with maturity. Ultimately, Travis and Zoé found their way back to each other and checked out together.
As of May 28, 2025, Travis and Zoé have confirmed that they are still on good terms by changing their Instagram bios to match quotes from their onscreen inside jokes: “House of beauty, this is cutie” and “President’s office, this is Travis.”
During our May 29, 2025 interview with Angelique Wilcox, we learned that Travis and Zoé “might still be working things out.” She stated, “I know there was a little bit of distance between them, but they’re my two best friends, so I hope things work out for them, either way.”
However, on June 1, 2o25, the couple went Instagram official when Zoé posted a collection of the couple’s cozy polaroids with the caption: “I can’t seem to get rid of this man.”
Jacie & Brandon
Status: Split
Brandon showed extreme indecision bouncing between at least four different women throughout the season. While Jacie and Brandon made it to the end of the season together, they did not leave as an item. Jacie snuck out on her own, leaving Brandon to check out solo. And, honestly, after the “just the tip” situation during their first night together, we’re not surprised by this one.
