Perfect Match Brings Together Your Favorite Netflix Reality Stars
Cast members hail from Too Hot to Handle, Love Is Blind, The Circle, and more.
Fans of Love Is Blind, Too Hot to Handle, and The Circle are going to love Perfect Match, Netflix's newest reality series. In a pretty genius move, cast members from all of your favorite reality shows have been brought together to find romance in a beachside villa. Basically, if you ever wondered what happened to the Love Is Blind contestants that didn't get married, this is your chance to find out.
Although Perfect Match is a show about finding true love, it's also a competition series featuring tasks, and pitting loved-up couples against one another. And with new singles arriving at the villa on a regular basis, contestants find themselves faced with temptation, and they're forced to make brutal decisions about their relationships. The star-studded cast includes everyone from Love Is Blind's Shayne to Francesca from Too Hot to Handle. Here's what you need to know about the contestants on Perfect Match, including whether they really found love on Netflix's latest reality show.
Abbey Humphreys from Twentysomethings: Austin
During her time on Twentysomethings: Austin, Abbey embarked on romances with fellow cast mates Kamari and Adam. As a divorcée, Abbey knows what it takes to make a relationship work, but she's still searching for her perfect match. She was often referred to as the villain of Twentysomethings, a title she didn't necessarily object to.
Abbey enters the villa in episode 8 when she's sent on a date with Francesca. They immediately strike up a romance, and Francesca decides to match with Abbey over Damian. However, Abbey starts having doubts about Francesca when she sees her kissing Kariselle in the pool.
In a surprising move, Abbey splits from Francesca and immediately matches with Bartise in episode 9. In episode 10, she's sent on a date with The Circle's Nick. Back at the villa, Abbey and Bartise decide to re-match with one another. Unfortunately, Abbey leaves the villa in episode 12 without a match, when Bartise chooses Izzy over her.
Anne-Sophie Petit-Frere from Selling Tampa
Fresh from Selling Tampa's cancelation, Anne-Sophie Petit-Frere hits the Perfect Match villa looking for love. Selling Tampa fans were immediately drawn to Anne-Sophie's amazing style and flirty personality.
After initially matching with Zay, Anne-Sophie is sent on a date with Calvin. However, when it comes time for her to match with someone at the end of the night, she surprises everyone by choosing wild card Chase. Ever the player, Chase dumps Anne-Sophie, leaving her without a match, and she leaves without finding love.
Bartise Bowden from Love Is Blind
Bartise likely needs no introduction. The third season of Love Is Blind saw him get engaged to Nancy in the pods, only to flirt with other women in front of her. Bartise and Nancy split up at the altar, leaving him free and single to join Netflix's Perfect Match.
Bartise enters the competition in episode 5 when he is sent on a date with Ines. Despite having fun together, he decides to match with Izzy at the end of the night. In episode 6, Bartise re-connects with Ines, and they match. However, in the following episode, Ines dumps Bartise in favor of Will, sending the Love Is Blind alum home.
Bartise returns in episode 9 for a date with Diamond, but back at the villa, he connects with Abbey and they decide to match. In episode 10, Bartise is sent on a date with Love Is Blind's LC. When he returns to the house, he tells Abbey he wants to stay matched with her. But in episode 12, Bartise sends Abbey home and matches with Izzy instead.
Although Bartise and Izzy are still together at the end of the competition, their romance doesn't go any further.
Calvin Crooks from The Circle
Calvin livened up The Circle season 3. Despite an onscreen flirtation with fellow cast mate Kai, Calvin found himself single after exiting the reality competition, hence his appearance on Perfect Match. A personal chef with a penchant for working out, Calvin brings a lot to the table.
On Perfect Match, Calvin is selected to take Anne-Sophie on a date. Sadly, the chemistry between them is off, and Calvin struggles to find his match in the villa.
Chase DeMoor from Too Hot To Handle
Chase first caught our attention in the second season of Too Hot to Handle, where he had dalliances with Carly and Tabitha. The pro boxer and former football player joins Perfect Match to look for romance, although he might have some ulterior motives, too.
When Chase first arrives, he's chosen to go on a date with Kariselle. Although they hit it off, Kariselle's on-again off-again relationship with Joey throws a wrench in the works. He subsequently matches with Anne-Sophie, but Chase seems to have a bigger game plan in mind.
After being sent on a date with Georgia, Chase believes he's found his match. Rather unexpectedly, Georgia decides to match with Dom in episode 5, leaving Chase alone and with no other choice but to go home.
Chloe Veitch from Too Hot To Handle and The Circle
Chloe Veitch's escapades on season 1 of Too Hot to Handle kept everyone entertained. After breaking a lot of rules, Chloe tried her luck on the second season of The Circle. There, she found a love match in fellow cast member Mitchell, and the pair dated for eight months after the show ended.
When Chloe arrives on Perfect Match, she's single and ready to find love. She's set up with Shayne on a date, and the pair instantly hit it off. However, Chloe is subsequently sent on a blind date with her ex-boyfriend Mitchell, and she realizes that there are still feelings between them. Despite being torn, Chloe decides to send Shayne home.
After rekindling their romance, Chloe's heart is broken in episode 8 when Mitchell says he's not ready to pursue a relationship with her. After gaining control of the boardroom, Chloe chooses to go on a date with Shayne, and she tells him he's “the one.” At the end of episode 10, Chloe and Shayne get into a dramatic fight about the way she left him for Mitchell, but they manage to repair their relationship.
Although they made it to the finale, they didn't win the competition. Since then, Chloe has revealed that her romance with Shayne is over, telling People, “[A]fter the show, we decided not to take things any further.”
Colony Reeves from Selling Tampa
Allure Realty's Colony Reeves is a passionate real estate agent who starred on Netflix's Selling Tampa. After starting out as a teacher, Colony made the switch to real estate on the advice of her dad, and she hasn't looked back, via Forbes. While she's already built a hugely successful career, Colony joins Perfect Match looking for love.
Colony enters the show in episode 6, when she's set up on a date with Dom. Unfortunately, Dom is committed to Georgia and doesn't entertain any romance with Colony. On her first day in the villa, Colony is sent home without a match.
Damian Powers from Love Is Blind
Love Is Blind fans will know Damian from the show's first season, in which he proposed to Giannina in the pods. While Damian opted not to wed Giannina on the show, the pair stayed together but their relationship sadly didn't work out. After the Altar saw Damian engaging in a flirty friendship with Too Hot to Handle star Francesca.
Damian enters Perfect Match at the every end of episode 4. Francesca decides to go on a date with Damian, revealing that they have unfinished business, and she chooses to match with him over Dom. But in episode 8, Francesca leaves Damian for Abbey. As a result, he matches with Ines, but their connection isn't romantic.
In episode 9, Francesca asks Damian to re-match with her, and he agrees. However, by episode 11, their romance is on the rocks. After Damian tells Francesca he wants to commit to her after the show, she decides to leave the series, telling him she doesn't feel the same.
Diamond Jack from Love Is Blind
Diamond appeared on the first season of Love Is Blind, where she paired up with Carlton. Sadly, their engagement didn't last, and they dramatically broke up on vacation with Carlton throwing the ring in a swimming pool. After Love Is Blind, she joined the cast of virtual dating series Faraway Bae.
Diamond arrives in episode 8 when she's sent on a date with Dom. However, Dom is already matched with Georgia. Back at the villa, Will takes an interest in Diamond, and they decide to match for the night.
However, Diamond and Will are far from a perfect match. In episode 9, she's sent on a date with Bartise. But back at the villa, Diamond sees Bartise kissing Abbey, and decides to leave the competition.
Dom Gabriel from The Mole
A tattooed musician with a heart of gold, Dom Gabriel first hit our screens in The Mole. Described by Tudum as a “punk rock Greek god,” Dom is also a huge fan of comics and anime, making him swoonworthy inside and out.
On Perfect Match, Dom is dedicated to Francesca from the very start, and the pair quickly seem inseparable. Sadly, in episode 5, Francesca goes on a date with Damian, and chooses to match with him instead. However, just as he is about to leave, Georgia propositions Dom, and asks if he will match with her.
The following day, Dom is sent on a date with Colony, but he tells her he's committed to Georgia. In episode 8, Dom is sent on yet another date, this time with Love Is Blind's Diamond. Despite the multiple dates, Dom sticks with Georgia, and they're still together in the finale. After a vote by the entire cast, Dom and Georgia are chosen as the winners of the competition.
Sadly, Georgia and Dom have since split up. “Obviously, after the show, there's distance. She's from Australia, I'm from Canada. It's hard,” Dom told People.
Francesca Farago from Too Hot To Handle
Francesca made a name for herself on the first season of Too Hot To Handle, getting engaged to fellow contestant Harry Jowsey soon after. Once the pair split, Francesca turned up on Love Is Blind: After the Altar season 1, where she caused drama for Damian and Giannina.
During the first four episodes of Perfect Match, Francesca quickly couples up with Dom from The Mole, and the pair initially seem like a picture perfect couple. However, at the end of episode 4, Francesca decides to go on a date with Love Is Blind's Damian, and matches with him instead, breaking Dom's heart.
While Francesca and Damian are initially loved-up, Francesca is sent on a blind date with Abbey in episode 8. They kiss, and it's clear that there's something between them. Francesca decides to match with Abbey instead of Damian, but the initial spark quickly fades. By episode 9, Francesca has re-matched with Damian.
At the end of episode 11, Francesca decides to break up with Damian, telling him that she doesn't believe their relationship would work outside of the villa.
Georgia Hassarati from Too Hot To Handle
Too Hot to Handle's Georgia Hassarati comes from Brisbane, Australia, and studied to be a midwife, according to Marie Claire. Despite being linked to cast mates Stevan and Gerrie, Georgia ended Too Hot to Handle as a single woman.
In episode 3 of Perfect Match, Georgia is brought in to go on a date with Chase. Although they seem to have a good time, Georgia isn't instantly won over by Chase's obvious charm. In episode 5, she decides to match with Dom instead, and their romance starts to blossom. Dom and Georgia are still together in the finale. After a vote by the entire cast, Dom and Georgia are chosen as the winners of the competition.
Despite winning the entire show, Dom and Georgia are no longer together. “We were just both in very different situations and we're both from so far away from each other, Australia, Canada,” Georgia told People. “I feel like when you're in that environment you're like, ‘Oh, it's going to be fine. We'll make it happen.’”
Ines Tazi from The Circle France
On The Circle France, Ines Tazi played a catfish, which kept her in the game for a long time. However, the French-Moroccan influencer, who grew up in Casablanca, decided to look for love in real life and joined Perfect Match.
Quickly voted the best kisser on the show, Ines matches with Shayne, and the pair begin a pretty fiery romance. However, Ines also has eyes for Nick, and it becomes clear that there might be something between them. After a date with Bartise in episode 5, Ines re-matches with Shayne. Sadly, Shayne goes on a date with Chloe in episode 6, and decides to match with her instead. Luckily, Bartise is still in the villa, and asks Ines to match with him.
In episode 7, Ines is sent on a blind date with Will, and they decide to match. The following day, Ines realizes that Will is a player. In episode 8, she decides to shoot her shot with Dom, whom she's had a crush on since the start. Unfortunately, Dom is with Georgia and isn't interested in Ines' offer. Somewhat of a wild card at this point, Damian asks Ines to match with him at the end of episode 8 and she agrees. However, it's not a match, and Damian returns to Francesca in episode 11, leaving Ines without a partner.
Izzy Fairthorne from Too Hot To Handle
Too Hot to Handle's Izzy had an unforgettable run on the show, as her actions cost the cast a whopping $22,000. Aside from appearing on reality TV, she's a personal trainer and hockey player, and she's pursuing a career in modeling, per The Sun.
Izzy is drafted to go on a date with Nick on Perfect Match in the show's third episode. Despite her instant chemistry with Nick, she ends up matching with Shayne in episode 4. However, the pair don't hit it off, and Izzy spontaneously matches with Bartise in episode 5. In the following episode, Bartise drops Izzy to match with Ines, leaving Izzy without a partner.
Izzy returns to the show in episode 11, and matches with Bartise at the start of episode 12. Although Bartise and Izzy are still together at the end of the competition, they decide not to pursue a romance in real life.
Joey Sasso from The Circle
Joey Sasso first hit our screens in The Circle, when he managed to win the show's first season. Per ScreenRant, Joey has always been passionate about acting, and he moved to Los Angeles as a teenager to follow his dreams. However, he's yet to find love.
On his first night in the Perfect Match villa, Joey reveals that he hooked up with both Francesca and Kariselle prior to coming on the show. While Francesca doesn't seem interested in pursuing anything with Joey, Kariselle has her eye on him from day one. While the pair don't necessarily always see eye to eye, it soon becomes clear that they have a genuine connection, and they make their relationship official in episode 5. In episode 12, Joey proposes to Kariselle and she says yes.
After the show, Kariselle and Joey decided to end their engagement. “She is someone I will always love, always have respect for, and I know we both speak very highly of each other,” Joey told People. “At the end of the day, we went through this together.”
Kariselle Snow from Sexy Beasts
Kariselle Snow is the only contestant from Netflix's Sexy Beasts to make it on to Perfect Match. Known as the panda from Sexy Beasts, Kariselle is continuing her quest for love, this time without the fuzzy costume.
Kariselle seems to have her heart set on Joey from the start of Perfect Match. Although their romance is a little rocky at times, they can't seem to stay away from each other in the show's first four episodes. Even a date with the hunky Chase isn't enough to dissuade her from Joey. In episode 5, Joey and Kariselle make their romance official by becoming “boyfriend and girlfriend.”
In episode 12, Joey proposes to Kariselle, and they get engaged. But after leaving the villa, the pair decided to end their engagement and go their separate ways.
Lauren "LC" Chamblin from Love Is Blind
Lauren “LC” Chamblin made quite the impact on season 1 of Love Is Blind. Her early romance with Barnett in the pods was put to an end by Amber Pike, who ended up marrying him. After the show, LC started dating Jessica Batten's ex, Mark Cuevas. However, that relationship ended when LC saw photos of Mark with another woman, per Entertainment Tonight.
LC finally appears in episode 10, when she's sent on a date with Bartise. Although they have a good time, it's not a love match. Back at the villa, she connects with Nick from The Circle, on whom she has a massive crush. In episode 12, Nick and LC decide to match.
Sadly, the prospect of a long-distance relationship proved to be too much for the pair, and they are not together.
Mitchell Eason from The Circle
Mitchell Eason caused quite a stir on season 2 of The Circle when he revealed that he was still a virgin, and that he was waiting for marriage. Aside from reality TV, Mitchell has worked as a model and even walked in New York Fashion Week, per Elite Daily. Hailing from Pennsylvania, Mitchell dated fellow cast mate Chloe Veitch after filming on The Circle ended.
After calling it quits, both Mitchell and Chloe find themselves starring on Perfect Match. In episode 7, they're sent on a blind date together, and find that there's still a spark between them. Chloe leaves Shayne and decides to match with Mitchell instead. But at the end of episode 8, Mitchell tells Chloe that he's not willing to prioritize a relationship with her right now, leaving their romance up in the air.
In episode 9, Mitchell decides to leave the competition, leaving Chloe to explore her romance with Shayne.
Nick Uhlenhuth from The Circle
Nick Uhlenhuth became known as “big daddy Nick” on the third season of The Circle, and was regularly told he had “Big Nick Energy.” However, Nick didn't find a love match on the social influencer series.
At the start of Perfect Match, Nick hopes to match with Francesca but he waits too long to make his move. Instead, he makes a strategic match with Savannah. After a date with Izzy, Nick switches partners with Shayne, and ends up matching with Ines. However, their spark doesn't turn into anything more, and Nick ends up leaving the villa in episode 5.
Nick returns to the game in episode 10, when he's sent on a date with Abbey. While it's not a love match, he gets the opportunity to meet LC, and they decide to match.
Sadly, the prospect of a long-distance relationship proved to be too much for the pair, and they are not together.
Savannah Palacio from The Circle
Influencer Savannah Palacio starred on the second season of The Circle. The former pageant participant already boasts a huge following on Instagram, and has landed partnership deals with the likes of Fenty Beauty and Yves Saint Laurent, per i-D.
In the first episode, Savannah pairs up with Nick from The Circle, more out of necessity than romance. Despite some serious flirting with Dom, Savannah doesn't find any real romance on the show.
