The second season of Netflix’s Too Hot To Handle delivered some of the most memorable contestants in the show’s history, challenging the idea that a group of commitment-phobes could actually form meaningful connections and walk away with a share of the grand prize. Airing in 2021, the season featured a vibrant cast of singletons who quickly broke Lana's rules, leading to a massive deduction from the initial $100,000 prize fund. But the real question for fans in late December 2025 is: Did the relationships last, who is married, and which stars leveraged their reality fame into lucrative careers?
This deep dive reveals the complete, current status of every major cast member from the Season 2 villa, from an unexpected reality TV marriage and the arrival of the show's first baby to the surprising career moves into pageantry, celebrity boxing, and exclusive content platforms like OnlyFans. The transformations are more dramatic than any rule-break in the villa.

The Power Couples: Babies, Marriage, and Breakups in 2025
While the goal of the show was to form emotional connections, only a few couples truly managed to make their relationships work in the real world. The updates on the Season 2 couples are the most explosive news for fans.
Emily Miller and Cam Holmes: The Too Hot To Handle Baby
Emily and Cam are arguably the biggest success story in the history of the show, proving that Lana's retreat actually works. They formed an instant connection and, despite a few tense moments, left the villa as a committed couple. Their relationship has only grown stronger since the show aired.
In the most significant update for the cast, Emily and Cam welcomed their first child, a baby boy, in June 2024. The couple shared the joyful news with their millions of followers, revealing their son's adorable name: Reggie Ruston Miller-Holmes. This makes Reggie the first baby born to an official couple from the Netflix series. The couple has been documenting their journey into parenthood with a video series called Now We're Talking Baby.
Carly Lawrence: A Surprise Reality TV Marriage
Carly's journey on the show was tumultuous, starting a relationship with Chase de Moor before finding a deeper connection with Joey Joy (a late arrival who does not feature in the main cast list). While her relationship with Joey did not last, Carly found her forever match in an unexpected place: the reality TV crossover universe.
Carly is now married to Love Island USA Season 2 star Bennett Sipes. The pair tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Los Angeles in May 2022, proving that you can find love in front of the cameras—just perhaps not the one you originally signed up for. Carly frequently shares updates on her "healthy" marriage and life in the US.
Marvin Anthony and Melinda Melrose: The Winner's Curse
Marvin Anthony, the French model and entrepreneur, was the Season 2 winner, having formed a strong bond with Melinda Melrose. The couple, affectionately nicknamed "Marlinda," were fan favorites, but their relationship did not survive long-distance dating after the show.
Since the breakup, both have continued to thrive in the entertainment industry. Marvin competed on a subsequent reality show, *Love Island Games*, further solidifying his reality TV career. Melinda, meanwhile, has moved from contestant to host, landing a job hosting a different Netflix dating show, which is a major career pivot.
From Lana’s Retreat to OnlyFans, Boxing, and Pageantry: The Cast’s Shocking Career Moves
The majority of the cast members leveraged their Too Hot To Handle fame into successful careers as influencers and content creators, with several making headlines for their controversial or surprising professional paths.
Chase de Moor: Celebrity Boxing and Exclusive Content
The former professional football player has fully embraced his celebrity status. Chase de Moor is one of the most prominent cast members to transition into the world of exclusive content creation, maintaining a highly active and lucrative presence on OnlyFans. His journey has been public, with his exclusive content being a major topic of discussion among fans.
Additionally, Chase has become a fixture in the celebrity boxing circuit. He frequently participates in high-profile events, including the MisFits Boxing series, often facing off against other internet personalities. His career is now a blend of professional fighting and premium online media.
Kayla Jean: The Pageant Star
Kayla Jean Carter, the model and bartender from Florida, has made perhaps the most unexpected career move of the entire cast. In a major shift from the party lifestyle of the villa, Kayla was recently crowned Miss Charm PH 2024. She is now scheduled to compete on the international stage in the Miss Charm pageant’s 2025 edition, representing the Philippines due to her heritage. This transition from a "bad boy" enthusiast to a beauty queen is a testament to her dedication and a completely unique post-show career path.
Larissa Trownson: The Bikini Lawyer’s Brand
Larissa, the New Zealand lawyer, became famous for her "intellectual and wear a bikini too" motto. Since the show, she has maintained her career while successfully transitioning into a multi-talented influencer and TV personality. She continues to use her platform to promote her brand, often discussing her legal background while sharing modeling and lifestyle content, proving her initial motto was more than just a catchy phrase.
Nathan Webb: The American Dream
Nathan Webb, the British former stripper, is now firmly settled in the United States. He is based in Dallas, Texas, continuing to pursue his modeling career and his self-described "cowboy fantasy." Though his relationship with Larissa Trownson did not last, Nathan remains an active figure on social media.
Christina Carmela and Robert Van Tromp: Life After Elimination
Christina and Robert were the most rule-breaking couple, famously eliminated in Episode 8 for "failing to grow" and costing the group a significant amount of money. Surprisingly, they announced they were still dating after the show, but the relationship eventually ended. Both have since returned to their respective careers—Christina as a pilot and Robert in sales—while maintaining their influencer status.
