While Kari and Max didn't have a thing on the show, they were named as a "Perfect Match." However, nothing ever happened between them. Now, Kari keeps busy as a comedian and Baltimore Ravens cheerleader with the Raven's Playmakers Squad. She also plans to work on a singing career in 2023.

Max is a manager for the Seven20 Group in Los Angeles, but no word yet on if he plans to manage his former Are You the One? match. OK, we highly doubt that would happen, but we can think of no better way to bring these two together again.

Amber and Remy were one of the Perfect Matches of the season, but they were never actually together. And outside of the show, they've led lives separate from one another, though they aren't far, if you want to keep up with either one of them.

Since Are You the One? aired, Amber competed on The Challenge and then started a YouTube channel about the show. She also appears to have done some traveling, according to Instagram. Remy may have moved on from the series the most, since he became a father following his time on the MTV series. But he also started an OnlyFans, so he's definitely not opposed to entertaining a fan base.
