The second season of Netflix’s reality dating phenomenon, *Too Hot to Handle* (THTH), delivered all the drama, rule-breaking, and surprising emotional growth fans could ask for. Airing in 2021, this group of commitment-phobes and self-proclaimed sex addicts were forced to keep their hands off each other to win a grand prize, leading to some of the most memorable moments in the show's history.

The Too Hot to Handle Season 2 Couples: Who Is Still Together?

The core intention of the retreat was to form deep, meaningful connections, but the show's track record for long-lasting relationships is notoriously mixed. Season 2, however, proved to be an exception, producing the franchise’s most enduring love story, alongside some surprising splits.

The ultimate poster couple for the entire *Too Hot to Handle* franchise is undoubtedly Cam Holmes and Emily Faye Miller. Their relationship, which began with numerous rule breaks, blossomed into a genuine commitment. They are one of the few THTH couples still together from any season. The most exciting and recent update is that the couple welcomed their first child, a baby, solidifying their relationship and making them the first THTH couple to become parents.

The other couples who found a connection in the villa were not so lucky:

  • Marvin Anthony and Melinda Melrose: Despite being the winning couple, they split shortly after the show aired. The distance and communication issues proved too difficult to overcome. Melinda later briefly dated Peter Vigilante, another Season 2 cast member.
  • Christina Carmela and Robert Van Tromp: The bombshell couple, who were famously eliminated early for their rule-breaking, dated for a period after the show but eventually parted ways. Robert now focuses on his dating coach career.
  • Carly Lawrence and Joey Joy: Carly and late-entry Joey were an item at the reunion, but their relationship was short-lived and turbulent. Carly’s most recent and significant relationship update is her marriage to another partner, a clear sign she found her true match outside the retreat.

From Lana’s Retreat to Professional Boxing and Pageantry

The post-show career paths of the Season 2 cast are a testament to how reality TV can launch diverse and unexpected careers. The contestants didn't just become influencers; they entered high-profile, competitive industries, proving their ambition extends far beyond the villa.

Chase DeMoor: The Athlete-Turned-Boxer. Chase DeMoor, known for his "Mr. Steal Your Girl" persona, has made the most dramatic career shift. Already a professional football player, he transitioned into a high-profile influencer and celebrity boxer, participating in various exhibition fights. His willingness to embrace the spotlight, including his OnlyFans presence and appearance on *Perfect Match*, has kept him highly relevant in the reality TV and combat sports circuits.

Kayla Carter: The Pageant Queen. Kayla Carter, initially a model and bartender, has taken her career to the international stage. She has been actively competing in beauty pageants, including the Miss Universe system. Her participation in Miss Charm PH 2024 and Miss Universe Philippines-NorCal shows a serious dedication to a career that requires discipline and public speaking—a far cry from the no-rules environment of THTH.

Larissa Trownson: The Bikini-Clad Lawyer. Larissa Trownson successfully balanced her reality TV fame with her professional life. She continues to work as a lawyer in New Zealand, using her platform to prove that women can be both intellectually and physically confident. Her ability to maintain a serious legal career while being a high-profile influencer is unique among the THTH alumni.

Nathan Webb: The Family Man. Nathan Webb's biggest post-show development is his transition to fatherhood. While his relationship status is kept private, the news of him becoming a dad marks a profound personal change, fulfilling the show's goal of fostering personal growth and maturity.

The THTH Season 2 Legacy: More Than Just a Show

The *Too Hot to Handle* Season 2 cast has left an indelible mark on the reality TV landscape, proving that the show can be a springboard for genuine, life-altering change. The success of Cam and Emily, who navigated the pressures of post-show life, the media, and social media scrutiny to build a family, is the ultimate validation of Lana's mission.

Meanwhile, the entrepreneurial spirit of the other cast members—from Robert’s pivot to dating coaching to Melinda’s foray into hosting and Chase’s boxing career—demonstrates their savvy use of the platform. The Season 2 alumni, more than most, have managed to stay relevant and continue evolving, making them one of the most successful and talked-about casts in the history of the Netflix series.
