Shaina and Kyle got engaged in episode 2.

After flying to Mexico together, Shaina decided to leave Kyle in paradise. Ultimately, the freelance hairstylist wasn’t sure if the couple could get past their religious differences. Moreover, in episode 5, Shaina admitted that she’s still thinking about Shayne.

Shaina and Kyle reconnected in Chicago, and he event met her family. At first, it looked like they were going to be able to move past their religious differences, but in the end, Shaina decided it was too big of a hurdle to overcome and they called it quits.

For his part, Kyle revealed he had a new girlfriend on September 19, 2022. “I have since embarked on a new relationship, which I intend to keep private for a bit,” he wrote via Instagram. “As for what the future holds, I have not a clue. Going forward I plan to live each day in the present without any regret.”

Danielle Ruhl and Nick Thompson: Not Together

Danielle and Nick were the first couple to get engaged in episode 1.

Although they had an instant connection, the pair did butt heads in Mexico after Danielle found herself with food poisoning and Nick went to meet up with the rest of the cast anyway. When Nick returned, they got into a big argument and Danielle admitted to some jealous and insecure tendencies.

Danielle and Nick made it to the altar and got hitched.

“I think from my perspective, it was like the uncertainty of her because I was very sure. Then a few days before, you know, the pressure mounts and you’re just kind of, like, ‘Wait a minute … is this the right decision? Should we just date?” Nick revealed to Life & Style in an exclusive video interview.

After major breakup speculation, Life & Style confirmed that Danielle had filed for divorce in August 2022 after one year of marriage.

Iyanna McNeely and Jarrette Jones: Not Together

Iyanna and Jarrette got engaged during episode 3.

At first, their trip to Mexico was perfect! However, after Jarrette and Mallory finally met face to face, things got a bit awkward. It appeared as though the former flames still had feelings for each other. Additionally, Jarrette’s “extra” personality started to bother the more low-key Iyanna.

After returning to Chicago, Iyanna and Jarrette’s connection deepened, but their differences in lifestyle became more apparent.

During the season finale, Iyanna and Jarrette got married and were seemingly going strong.

“The biggest thing that’s been rewarding for me is just the growth that we’ve had over the time of us being married. I think we were kind of looking for that instant gratification … with merging our lives together. We just have to learn early on that it’s going to take time,” Jarrette told Life & Style in an exclusive video interview. “We have nothing but time in our heads, and the growth that we’re going to experience together is going to be far more rewarding. So, I think that’s been the biggest thing for me, at least.”

Sadly, their love didn’t last, as the two confirmed their shocking split in August 2022 after one year of marriage.

“After much thought, we’re saddened to share that we have separated and will begin the process of divorcing,” the Netflix alumni wrote in a joint statement shared via Instagram. “While we have love for each other, our lives are going in different directions, and that’s OK. Coming to this decision was far from easy, and we will always wish each other the best.”

Iyanna officially filed for divorce from Jarrette on September 23, 2022, Life & Style confirmed.

Mallory Zapata and Salvador Perez: Not Together

Mallory and Salvador got engaged during episode 3.

Initially, Mallory wasn’t physically attracted to Salvador. However, after arriving in Mexico, she changed her mind. Despite Mallory’s flirtation with Jarrette, the couple realized they were right for each other.

Mallory and Salvador had some rocky times after returning from Mexico, namely after a woman from his past resurfaced to shake things up. That said, through some serious communication and romantic gestures, they came out stronger.

However, at the altar, Salvador was unable to say “I do” and he and Mallory didn’t get married.

While Salvador has since moved on with girlfriend Jessica Palkovic, Mallory appears to be single.

Natalie Lee and Shayne Jansen: Not Together

Natalie and Shayne got engaged during episode 3.

Out of all the couples, Natalie and Shayne had the strongest physical connection after meeting each other … but was it just lust? By the end of their trip to Mexico, the pair started to argue over their major personality differences. Plus, there is the Shaina of it all!

Thankfully, the Shaina love triangle died pretty quickly. Although Shaina and Shayne did finally meet face to face at a beach BBQ in Chicago, he wasn’t interested in listening to her slander his relationship with Natalie.

Moreover, Natalie and Shayne both met each other’s families and it couldn’t have gone better! They have the full support of their loved ones walking into their wedding. Although Shayne said “I do” at the altar, Natalie couldn’t go through with their marriage and said no, explaining the pair had a blowout fight ahead of their nuptials.
“It wasn’t just one thing that caused that fight. I think it was a lot of things that had built up in terms of what he was feeling,” Natalie recalled to Life & Style in an exclusive video interview. “I think also the pressure of our wedding got to us as well. So, it wasn’t one thing. It was an accumulation of a lot of different things that caused quite a big fight between us.”
Natalie and Shayne both appear to be single.

Deepti Vempati and Abhishek “Shake” Chatterjee: Not Together

Deepti and Shake got engaged during episode 2.

Even in the pods, Shake admitted that he was a superficial person. Eventually, he decided to put his old behaviors aside and really get to know Deepti. Once arriving in Mexico, it looked like Deepti was may more into Shake than he was into her, especially physically. Even so, they left paradise as a couple.

Deepti and Shake’s physical connection continued to be lackluster in Chicago. They have an amazing emotional connection, but they both found themselves questioning if that’s enough to sustain a marriage.

During the season finale, Deepti realized she couldn’t marry Shake if he wasn’t 100 percent sure about her.

Since then, Deepti has reflected on their time together, including Shake’s comments about their intimacy issues. “We did talk about how we lacked chemistry and you know, the physical intimacy was a problem to us,” Deepti told Life & Style in an exclusive video interview.

“It’s not one-sided though. I mean, I felt it, too. That’s why I’m not throwing myself at him either,” Deepti clarified. “Yeah, it was very tough to watch back because even if that’s the case, you should still have respect for your fiancée or even just a friend. You don’t talk about them in that way to other people. I think he doesn’t even realize that it’s wrong — and that’s why we would never be compatible.”

Post-filming, Deepti went on to briefly date Kyle, but they confirmed their split on September 19, 2022.

Deepti appears to currently be single while Shake has moved on with Miami-based podcast host Emily Wilson.
