Are Stevan and Alara still together from The Perfect Match Season 2?

Sadly, Stevan and Alara broke up after The Perfect Match Season 2 finished filming. Stevan confirmed the news to People in June 2024, telling the magazine: “You can’t expect anything just to be completely honest. You have to go in open mind, open perspective because it will never go the way that you think it’s going to go on reality TV.”

At the time of writing, Stevan and Alara do not follow each other on Instagram. Alara also didn’t tag Stevan in an Instagram post on June 11 of her hugging Stevan after their first challenge win as a couple. Christine also hinted that Stevan and Alara didn’t have the best breakup in a TikTok comment after the Season 2 finale to a fan who criticized her and Nigel for winning The Perfect Match over Stevan and Alara. “Alara and stevan were robbed… i have no clue how you and nigel won 😭😂,” the fan commented, to which Christine responded, “I promise yall won’t be going this hard once I spill this tea.”

Are Elys & Bryton Still Together From The Perfect Match? An Update to Their Relationship

Despite this, Stevan still had good things to say about Alara in an interview with Today after The Perfect Match Season 2 finale. “I think she was just very open minded and just loud about how she felt, what her thought process was, in general,” he said. “I like communication a lot, and so she was extremely extroverted. And you’d never really had to question what was going on with her.” He continued, “So, it just seemed a lot more natural and very unique in its own way.”

Stevan and Alara haven’t confirmed why they split, however, based on the reasons of past Perfect Match couples’ breakups, it’s likely that distance played a role in their decision to end their relationship. Stevan lives in Los Angeles, California, while Alara lives in London, England.

Alara and her Dated and Related ex, Kieran, also broke up due to distance, though their distance was a lot closer. “Alara and I had a lot going on back home after leaving the villa, so, unfortunately, things didn’t work out between us,” Kieran told Tudum in 2022. “I had family issues, and Alara was busy at university, and she lived three hours away from London, which made it more difficult. We’re still really good friends and still in contact.”
