Where ‘The Ultimatum: Queer Love' Season 1 Cast Are Now
The Ultimatum: Queer Love season 2 is currently airing on Netflix, with a new batch of couples putting their relationship to the test to figure out whether they're ready to settle down, call it quits for good, or move on with someone new. It's been two years since season one first aired on the streaming site and had us all well and truly hooked, and almost four years since the show was filmed. With the new season underway, we couldn't help but wonder where the likes of Lexi and Rae or Tiff and Mildred are now. From career changes to new relationships and an engagement, here's where the cast of The Ultimatum: Queer Love season 1 are now. Despite Rae exploring a connection with Vanessa (ahem, Finger Gate) during their trial married, she ultimately chose to return to Lexi. Still, throughout the season, Lexi often dominated the dynamic, frequently overshadowing Rae. They were still together by the time the reunion came around and were even planning their wedding. However, they called things off shortly after the reunion aired. Lexi is now in a relationship with Lil Z, who she refers to as her "wife" and the couple often share very loved up pictures on their social media — many of which have us wondering if we're interrupting something. The pair hard launched their relationship in 2023 and later got engaged. In terms of work, Lexi seems to have stepped away from consulting for an international taxi firm and has moved into lifestyle content creation. As for Rae, she's currently working as a software engineer and also appears to be in a new relationship with a talent manager named Caitlin. On 22nd May, Rae shared a montage of videos and images of the couple, with the caption: "The butterfly effect is real because what if I was never issued an Ultimatum." Tiff and Mildred had a pretty tumultuous relationship while on the show, marked by conflict and weekly breakups. While Tiff proposed to Mildred during the finale, things didn't last. At the reunion, it was revealed that Tiff and Mildred had broken off their engagement after a domestic dispute that led to Mildred's arrest. Following the show, Tiff went on to host the Fweebs Podcast alongside Karina Gonzalez. Tiff's Instagram bio states that they are a "Narcissistic Abuse Coach" and followers can access coaching sessions via a link. Tiff hosts and attends lost of Pride events in the US and has recently been making videos commenting on the new season of The Ultimatum. After the show, Mildred continued her work as a Zumba instructor, but has since stepped away from social media. Although turbulent, Sam and Aussie's story ended with a proposal in the finale. Fans will be happy to hear that the duo are still together. It's not yet known whether they've tied the knot yet, but Sam posted a picture of their proposal on 18th June with a very lengthy caption, where she stated: "And no I won't be commenting on our marriage status because it really doesn't matter whether or not you know. The exception is if we know you personally lol I don't really follow traditions anyways, but I will say it's funny that the Ultimatum actually helped me care less about marriage than I did before we started the journey." The pair advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and mental health on their respective Instagram accounts, sharing lots of advice videos with the hope of providing more representation as queer Asians. They are also the only surviving couple of season one, so they should be quite proud. Xander and Vanessa were the only couple to part ways on Ultimatum Day, a decision that aligned with Vanessa's father's insight that she wasn't ready for marriage - she just didn't want to lose Xander. Following the show, Vanessa debuted her new girlfriend. She also moved to Los Angeles. She has kept the identity of her partner private, although she does appear in some of her Instagram posts and the pair seem very smitten. As for Xander, they still live in Hawaii but mentioned they were considering a move to Los Angeles or San Diego, where The Ultimatum: Queer Love was filmed. Xander appears to be on good terms with Mal, who they posted a pic with last year June, writing: "Thanks for an amazing excuse to go see people I love @netflix" with some heart-eye emojis. At the moment, Xander doesn't appear to be in a relationship, or at least a public one, and is focusing on their career as a Physical Therapist and Mind and Body Coach. Despite Yoly tearfully accepting Mal's proposal in the finale, the pair broke up soon after filming as old issues resurfaced and Yoly's lingering feelings for Xander became clear. Xander and Yoly's relationship fizzled, however. The pair remained single for some time after the show, but Yoly is now in a relationship with a content creator named appears in many of Mal's Instagram posts and things seem to be going well for them. When it comes to work, Yoly founded Lovers and Friends Chicago, which is a community for 30+ lesbians and queer allies. She also spends a lot of her time travelling and creating content. Mal is in a new relationship with dancer Sammy Picone, and the fans approve, calling them an "awesome match". In February, Mal shared a carousel of pics and videos with Sammy alongside the caption: "It's quite simple. I love you." Sammy commented: "*zoomies activate* Baby I adore you. Thank goodness the universe persistently nudged us into each others' orbit." Asides from their relationship, Mal is a mental health advocate, producer and makes fashion and lifestyle content. The Ultimatum: Queer Love season two is currently streaming on Netflix.

'The Ultimatum: Queer Love' season one cast — where are they now?
Photo by Simone Thompson/Netflix 'The Ultimatum: Queer Love' season one cast — where are they now? When Netflix premiered The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On in 2022, viewers watched straight couples face a tricky question: 'Will you marry me, or walk away?' In 2023, the streamer spun off a bold new experiment in The Ultimatum: Queer Love, which featured five LGBTQ+ duos who swapped partners for 'trial marriages,' then reunited to decide if they'd commit forever or call it quits. Over ten drama‑packed episodes, one partner issued an ultimatum—marry or move on—and the candidates moved in with someone else, blurring lines of romance, identity, and self‑growth. After a fiery reunion special, only one pair stayed engaged. Now that Netflix has announced season 2, let's catch up with the original cast—where they started on camera, what happened behind the scenes, and where their love stands today. Yoly, haunted by her feelings for Xander, still accepted Mal's wedding proposal. However, continued rumblings about trust and honesty unraveled their bond. Their finale 'I do' rang hollow, and both acknowledged they'd rather be friends than spouses. Eventually, even that fizzled. See on Instagram Yoly dove into a 'dating me' era—solo cooking videos, dog‑mom adventures, and, in November 2023, soft-launched her new partner, Domenick Flores, whom she still dates as of May 2025. See on Instagram Her Instagram is a tapestry of travel vlogs, Pilates classes, and sunset kisses with her new love. See on Instagram Mal, ever the romantic, forged an unbreakable 'family' friendship with Lexi, FaceTiming her daily. See on Instagram She's deeply involved in community organizing, streaming self-care tips, and introducing us to her new girlfriend, Sammy Picone. See on Instagram Tiff, an LGBTQ+ coach hopeful, asked Mildred, a devoted mother and Zumba instructor, for marriage, despite repeated blowups over communication and Tiff's role in Mildred's son's life. Their trial pairing with other partners only magnified tensions, and a revealing reunion unveiled an alleged domestic dispute, culminating in Tiff's dramatic exit. No vows, no healing—just headlines. See on Instagram Tiff harnessed the drama into creative ventures, including co-hosting the Fweebs Podcast, launching Cameo shout-outs, and speaking at Pride events coast to coast. They're single, thrifting vintage looks, leveling up in web design studies, and advocating for domestic violence awareness. Their Instagram is a mix of motivational reels and cameo appearances. See on Instagram After losing their dog, Shylo, they introduced us all to their new dog, Bucket, a few months ago. See on Instagram Mildred retreated from the spotlight after social‑media backlash, resurfacing only for Zumba livestreams and occasional 'healing through dance' posts. Although Mildred hasn't returned to mainstream platforms, she's reportedly attending local fitness classes and focusing on her son—proof that stepping away can be part of one's own ultimatum to survive and thrive. She told Netflix Tudum that she's not ready for anything serious and enjoys being single. See on Instagram Vanessa, a fierce influencer, and Xander, a Hawaii‑based PT and coach, were the only couple to say no on their Ultimatum Day. Vanessa's fear of losing herself clashed with Xander's desire for partnership. Even though they had a sweet moment together during the reunion that seemed as though they'd continue in friendship, the two have slowly become more estranged. See on Instagram Vanessa, who was dubbed the villain on the season, decamped to L.A., embracing a 'solo era' of European backpacking, luxury brand collabs, and living her best life. See on Instagram It appears that she is currently single, despite some rumored relationships over the years. See on Instagram Xander, meanwhile, stayed in Hawaii. She launched her physical-therapy practice, studied to be a yoga instructor, and even weighed out a move to San Diego before deciding to stay put. See on Instagram In a photo collage reconnecting with the cast from the show, she said she would do it all over again just to be where she is now. Lexi, the confident content creator, laid down the law with Rae, a soft‑spoken software engineer, demanding a yes‑or‑no answer about marriage. In their trial marriage, Rae's chemistry with Vanessa sparked jealousy, but ultimately, Rae proposed to Lexi in a candlelit finale. Lexi tearfully accepted, vowing to build a future together. Yet fans cringed as Lexi's micromanaging clashed with Rae's need for emotional space, setting the stage for a rocky reunion. By reunion day, the engagement ring had already been shelved. Lexi shifted gears post‑show into full‑time influencing, partnering with wellness brands, sharing weight‑lifting clips, and launching a relationship with photographer Kristin Zancanelli (a.k.a. 'Zanc'), whom she engaged in March 2024. Lexi's content now celebrates queer love with floral ring selfies and workout duets. See on Instagram Rae, meanwhile, traded Orange County for Los Angeles and doubled down on personal empowerment. Why is her drink order always better than mine 😩 #fyp #funny #happyhour #drinks #couple The former fiancée boasts a thriving career as a software engineer, globe‑trotting TikToks, and weekly therapy sessions to unlearn people‑pleasing patterns. She's now in a relationship with talent manager Caitlin Kearney. See on Instagram Sam, an optimistic social worker, confronted Aussie, a nonbinary artist wrestling with past trauma, demanding a ring or a breakup. Their trial marriages tested Aussie's boundaries, as well as Aussie's journey through gender identity exploration, and anchored their bond. In a surprise finale, Aussie accepted Sam's proposal, promising to heal and grow together. Photo by Simone Thompson/Netflix They remain the only couple from Season 1 to still be engaged, prioritizing their personal journeys over wedding plans. See on Instagram On Instagram, Sam shares Aussie's leather‑punk lookbooks and wellness check‑ins, while Aussie chronicles nights out in Loewe boots and gender‑euphoric fashion experiments. Aussie credits Sam for allowing them to explore their identity, and in return, has coached Sam through family‑origin work and somatic therapy. See on Instagram Although they haven't set a date, they've locked down one detail: only Tiff and Vanessa get wedding invites. - YouTube Sam and Aussie's continued engagement proved that sometimes a bold ultimatum can blossom into a true partnership. The rest have scattered into new relationships, careers, and creative projects—each writing their own happily‑ever‑after, whether single, partnered, or soulfully solo. With season 2 on the horizon, six new queer couples will test love's boundaries all over again. Will Netflix's next batch finally produce a second success story? Or will more hearts be broken on the path to marriage? One thing's certain: we'll be here, popcorn at the ready, to track every ring, breakup, and soft‑launch in the queer love multiverse.
