The hit Netflix series is back for the fifth time, and will see 10 singletons attempt to follow the Amazon Alexa-like Lana’s no physical intimacy rules, or risk having money deducted from the whopping $200,000 (£155,000) prize fund.

After four seasons of the show, you’d think the couples would have it down by now - but temptation can often prove to be too much!

While some of last year's finalists – Dominique, Imogen, Nigel, and Shawn – didn't manage to find love on the show, three couples managed to make it to the end of the series in relationships.

But, are they still together?

RadioTimes.com has been doing a little digging into the three successful couples – James and Brittan, Kayla and Seb, and Nick and Jawahir.

But what was the fate of the couples from the previous years? Read on to find out more…

Too Hot to Handle season 4

They may have briefly separated on the show, as James became too concerned with saving the prize fund, but the couple managed to find their way back to each other.

During their break, Brittan decided to date Ethan; but nevertheless, by the finale it was all about James and Brittan, with the pair leaving the show as an item.

Since then, though, it appears the pair have gone their separate ways. Despite Brittan revealing in December that they were "dating" in their home city of LA, things have been very quiet for the pair on social media since then...

Kayla and Seb - Together

They managed to make it all the way to the final of the show, but missed out on the jackpot to Jawahir and Nick.

However, Kayla and Seb walked away from the show with a lot more than money.

"We may not have won but I think I still win because I have the best man here. Money is easy to make, love is hard to find," Kayla said.

And despite a blip shortly after they filmed the series, these two are still going strong.

The pair often share cute snaps with fans on Instagram, who are delighted to see their relationship blossom.

Jawahir and Nick - Not together

It was love at first sight for Jawahir and Nick, who ended up bagging the $89,000 cash prize at the end of the show.

But while the pair stayed together for several months after the series - travelling to Bali and even living in London together - in a video posted on the Too Hot to Handle Instagram in December 2022, Jawahir revealed, "I'm single and I'm so not ready to mingle."

"I got my heart broken because I fell in love and got to live together with Nick, and eventually things didn't work out," she continued. "I'm going to spend my twenties just loving and growing and just evolving as a young woman."

Nick also added in the clip: "I need myself and I need my foundations established. I'm focusing on me, doing what I want to do, and exploring my curiosities."

Too Hot to Handle season 3

Harry Johnson and Beaux Raymond - Not together

Unfortunately, Harry and Beaux are no longer together. During the reunion, host Chloe Veitch asked whether they're still together, to which Beaux simply responded: "No, we're not."

So, why did they split?

"When we got home, it was going from being with each other every single day and then nothing at all, which was really hard. We stay in contact, always have been in contact, and we're really close too, which is nice!" Beaux added.

Despite their split, the pair have planned to go on holiday to the Maldives to celebrate their win.

In terms of whether they could get back together, Beaux said: "I mean I don't know. I haven't seen him in such a long time, but you never know."

Harry commented: "I'll never say never to anything and obviously we haven't seen each other for a while, but we're in a great place. We're in the best place and obviously we've agreed to go on holiday to celebrate the journey."

Harry and Beaux managed to find a deep connection on season 3, with the pair walking away as a couple and the Too Hot to Handle season 3 winners, bagging $90,000 in the process.

Following their win, Harry dropped the L-bomb, saying: "We went from nothing, to being in love," so it looked like a relationship could be on the cards for them, but like many former contestants, distance got in the way again.

Holly Scarfone and Nathan Soan Mngomezulu - Not together

Holly and Nathan were hot for one another, with the pair losing a lot of the prize money. They were eventually given the chance to win back $90,000 for the prize pot, which much to our surprise, they managed to do.

So, are they still together?

Unfortunately not.

During the reunion show, Holly revealed that she'd travelled to England to meet Nathan's family, but they eventually decided to "put a pin in things".

She said: "I did come out to London. I spent about a month there and I spent a long time with Nathan. I met his whole family and I met his grandparents and we went to the countryside and London and we hung out with Olga. We had an incredible time, but at the same time, I just got my degree. I literally just graduated. We had a very open conversation. We talked about it for a long time and we just decided to put a pin in things."

But it sounds like there could still be some hope for these two, who agreed with Chloe Veitch that they could revisit things.

Obi Nnadi and Brianna Giscombe - Not together

Obi Nnandi and Brianna Giscombe got very close on season 3. The two never really made it clear whether they were an item or not, but left the show on good terms.

Judging by the reunion show, it doesn't look like they continued things outside of the show.

Too Hot to Handle season 2

Emily Miller and Cam Holmes - Still together

Emily and Cam fell madly in love in season 2, and fans of the show will be very happy to hear that they're still together.

In July 2021, Emily revealed: "We are very much in a relationship."

Earlier that month, they celebrated their one-year anniversary, as Cam shared a loved up snap, with the caption: "365 days of loving you."

Despite briefly splitting in April last year amid rumours Cam had cheated, they rekindled their romance and things are still going very strong for the pair, who regularly share cute snaps on their separate Instagram pages and even moved in together a month and a half into their relationship!

Tabitha and Chase hit it off as soon as Tab arrived as a grenade, causing a lot of issues with Chase's former flame on the show, Carly.

Unfortunately, the pair are no longer together, with them citing distance as the reason - Tab lives in the UK and Chase is across the pond in the USA. They are still in touch, however.

Melinda Melrose and Marvin Anthony - Not together

Melinda and Marvin couldn't keep their hands off each other back in season 2, which led to them both losing a lot of the prize money.

However, things didn't last outside of the show. During the July 2021 reunion, the pair confirmed they'd broken up after a fight led them to cancelling a trip to Mexico together.

Sparks flew for Carly and Joey towards the end of season 2, but shortly after filming wrapped they split up. They eventually got back together and moved to Los Angeles, before splitting a second time.

In May last year, Carly actually tied the knot with Love Island USA's Bennett Sipes at an intimate ceremony in Los Angeles, who she began dating in December 2021, shortly after ending things with Joey.

Christina and Robert were all over each other on season 2, so much so, Lana had to send them home early for breaking way too many rules. Turns out, they actually had a very good connection, with the pair staying together after the show.

Sadly, they are no longer together, after splitting in September 2021.

Following the show, the pair dated on/off, however, they eventually called it quits for good in May 2021.

Francesca went on to date The Only Way Is Essex star Demi Sims, and also appeared on Love Is Blind: Life After the Altar as Damian Power's date. This cameo resulted in an argument between Francesca and Giannina on Love Is Blind.

Rhonda and Sharron hit it off in season 1, but sadly, distance made it difficult for them to keep their love alive outside of the show, with Rhonda revealing in April 2020 that they hadn't "even had the time to meet [in person] since the show.” They have, however, remained “the best of friends.”

Lydia Clyma and David Birtwistle - Not together

It looked like there could be some sparks between David Birtwistle and late arrival Lydia Clyma, but it just wasn't meant to be, as the pair stopped dating soon after the show.

There's no bad blood between them though, and they remain friends, with David previously saying: “Lydia and I have got such a beautiful relationship. She holds a special place in my heart.”

Nicole O’Brien and Bryce Hirschberg - Not together

These two didn't actually form a relationship until after the show. In April 2020, they went public with their relationship, however distance got in the way, with the pair splitting a month later.
