Warning: The Perfect Match season 1 spoilers ahead. If you watched his season of Love Is Blind, you may have a lot of questions about if Chloe and Shayne are still together from The Perfect Match season 1 and where they are now after filming ended.

Chloe Veitch, a contestant from Too Hot to Handle season 1 and The Circle season 2, and Shayne Jansen, a contestant from Love Is Blind season 2, were two cast members on season 1 of The Perfect Match, a Netflix reality TV dating show hosted by Nick Lachey (who also hosts Love Is Blind and The Ultimatum). The series sees former contestants from Netflix reality TV shows—including Love Is Blind, Too Hot to Handle, The Circle, The Ultimatum and The Mole—move into a villa in a tropical location, where they date each other in the hopes of finding their perfect match. Each week, contestants who don’t have a match are eliminated as new contestants arrive at the villa to try to break up couples and find a match of their own. In the end, the couple voted by the eliminated contestants as the perfect match are named the winners and receive a cash prize.

“It’s a show full of love and drama and conflict and strategy and gameplay,” The Perfect Match executive producer Chris Coelen told The Hollywood Reporter in February 2023. “Different people come in with different motivations; different people come in with different emotional baggage. There’s certainly no stated intent in this show that there is a specific goal. It’s very reflective of where they are in their lives, and they might just be looking for somebody to spend the summer with, or have a fling with — or maybe they are looking for someone who’s a life partner. It’s really up to them to figure out what their own perfect match is.”

He continued, “Obviously, Valentine’s Day is a holiday that’s rife with symbolism about love. We’re all into the new year, and we’re thinking about our lives and our partners, or lack of partners. These shows are incredibly enjoyable at any time of the year, but I love that we get to see a show like Perfect Match come out on Valentine’s Day.”

But back to Chloe and Shayne. So…are Chloe and Shayne still together from The Perfect Match season 1? Read on for what we know about if Chloe and Shayne are still together from The Perfect Match season 1 and where they are now since filming ended.

Are Chloe and Shayne still together from The Perfect Match season 1?

Are Chloe and Shayne still together from The Perfect Match season 1? The answer seems to be no. Chloe and Shayne were one of five couples in The Perfect Match season 1 finale, along with Dom (The Mole season 1) and Georgia (Too Hot to Handle season 3); Joey (The Circle season 1) and Kariselle (Sexy Beasts season 1); Bartise (Love Is Blind season 3) and Izzy (Too Hot to Handle season 3); and Nick (The Circle season 1) and LC (Love Is Blind season 1.)

Though Chloe and Shayne haven’t confirmed their relationship, as of writing this, it seems like they broke up after The Perfect Match season 1 finished filming. Chloe hinted at the breakup in a TikTok video posted by Shayne’s ex-fiance from Love Is Blind season 2, Natalie Lee, in February 2023. “How long do you kiss your boyfriend?” Natalie lip syncs an audio saying, to which Chloe lip-syncs, “Every week, of course.” Ines, a contestant from The Circle France and another cast member on The Perfect Match season 1, also lip syncs, “What about you?” Natalie responds, “Like four times a week maybe.” Chloe responds, “I didn’t expect that from you and Jake.” Natalie responds, “No, me and Jake are fine. I thought you were asking about your boyfriend.” Chloe, Ines and Natalie then enter the same frame together and lip sync, “Wait what?!”

In an Instagram Story in January 2023, Natalie claimed that she and Shayne were both approached to be on The Perfect Match season 1 in September 2021 while they were still together, and that Shayne agreed to star on the show without her knowing. “I knew about the new dating show back in Sept 2021 because Shayne and I were both approached to apply for it while we were in a relationship (casting didn’t know we were together at the time),” Natalie wrote in the Instagram Story. “We told each other we declined the opportunity, but I later found out he actually didn’t decline and started the casting process in Nov 2021 without my knowledge at the time, while we were still together. We broke up and cut contact with each other sometime that November” Natalie also claimed that Shayne texted her while filming The Perfect Match and told her that he wanted to leave the show because he “still had feelings” for her after they filmed the Love Is Blind season 2 reunion together.

“While Shayne was filming the new show in Feb 2022, he texted me numerous times he wanted to leave midway through filming because he still had feelings for me after we saw each other for the first time since our breakup at the reunion show taping,” Natalie wrote. “He also asked for my support as he struggled through the online hate. Knowing there was little hope for our relationship and how excited he was to do another reality tv show, I encouraged him to continue filming and tried to pacify the onlion backlash for him through my interviews and on social media.”

Natalie also claimed that Shayne asked her to get back together after he finished filming The Perfect Match season 1. “When he returned from filming, he asked to meet up to discuss ‘us’ and ultimately I told him we shouldn’t reconcile. Then he lied about me on a podcast. He apologized for lying on the podcast via text, but any time of friendship we had fell apart as a result.” She continued, “So long story short, in response to how much shayne continued to bully and talk about me and my friends on his social media platforms, I like to spill a little tea once in a while, and yes, he was casting for the show while we were in a relationship in Nov 2021, and I’m really excited to watch the new show because of that fact :)” As of writing this, Chloe and Shayne don’t follow each other on Instagram.

Who is The Perfect Match host?

Who is The Perfect Match host? The Perfect Match season 1 host is Nick Lachey, who also hosts Netflix reality TV dating shows Love Is Blind and The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On with his wife, Vanessa Lachey. Nick was the lead singer of the boy band 98 Degrees from 1996 to 2012. The group reunited in 2012 and are still together. Nick has also released four solo alums: SoulO, What’s Left of Me, A Father’s Lullaby and Soundtrack of My Life. He was married to Jessica Simpson from 2002 to 2006, and the two also starred in their own reality show, Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica on MTV, from 2003 to 2005. Nick is also the winner of season 5 of The Masked Singer during which he performed as the character “Piglet.”

In an interview with Distractify in March 2022, Nick explained that he and Vanessa wanted to host Love Is Blind because of how their own relationship was long distance when they first started dating. “When Netflix approached us with Love is Blind all those years ago, we jumped at the opportunity because the show really spoke to us personally,” Nick said. “When we first started dating, Vanessa was in New York and I was in Los Angeles. We didn’t get to see each other a lot so we had a lot of long phone conversations, learning everything we possibly could about each other.” He continued, “[Those conversations were] really important for building our relationship and knowing we wanted the same things before there were external pressures on the relationship.” Nick also told Distractify that he and Vanessa want contestants to “fall in love for the right reasons and then introduce everything else.”

Nick also told People in 2022 about how he thinks Love Is Blind would’ve worked for him and Vanessa if they had met in The Pods. “We’ve thought about that, often. And I really, I’m not just saying this for the benefit of this show, I think we would’ve,” he said. “We have the same birthday, we have the same passions, we have the same interests, we have the same drive. Things that motivated us.” Vanessa asked “You would’ve found me through a wall?” to which Nick responded, “I would find you anywhere.” He continued, “I really do think we would’ve found each other. I think we would’ve gravitated to each other. That’s what we did in life. Obviously, we knew each other.” Vanessa added, “We did. We had to find our journey to get to each other.”

Nick also claimed to Us Weekly in 2022 that he would’ve joined Love Is Blind if he was single. “I would. I mean, it’s fascinating,” he said. “Especially having seen the success of season 1 and seeing two loving couples still married to this day? If I watched that and I was looking for love, why wouldn’t you wanna be a part of that? You know, it’s proven to work!” He added, “This dating world is not one I ever was part of — this very superficial ‘swipe left.’ There’s so much judgment and you can Google everybody. I’m not from that era.”

The Perfect Match is available to stream on Netflix.
