Season two of "The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On" [1] is officially finished and it's filled with plenty of drama. The first eight episodes of season two hit Netflix on Aug. 23, followed by the final episode and reunion on Aug. 30. Each episode is packed with every variety of romantic tension, from jealousy and unexpected romance to a surprise pregnancy.
Drama is inevitable on "The Ultimatum," of course. The show follows four couples who are all deciding whether they want to get married. In each couple, one person has given their partner the key ultimatum: end their time on the show by getting engaged or breaking up. During the show, the stars are all given the chance to pair up with one of the other contestants and live together for three weeks as part of a trial marriage. After that, they all live with their original partners for three weeks, and from there, the couples have to make their final decisions about their next step.
"The Ultimatum" season one saw both breakups and engagements, as did the spin-off series "The Ultimatum: Queer Love." [2] Season two has come complete with a whole new set of couples to obsess about, so if you're wondering where the couples stand as of today, look no further. Scroll ahead for updates on every pair.
Are Lisa and Brian From "The Ultimatum" Still Together?
Lisa gave Brian the ultimatum, and the couple had an explosive fight in episode two after Lisa had a strong emotional reaction to seeing Brian in conversation with another girl. In episode three, the pair dropped a bombshell when they revealed that Lisa discovered she was pregnant. The pair decided to exit the show immediately after that revelation.
During the reunion, they revealed that they're still together and have since welcomed a baby boy. Brian also said that while he still isn't ready to get married yet, he's committed to Lisa and plans on popping the question at some point in the future.
On Aug. 30, Brian shared an Instagram tribute [4] to Lisa and his experience on "The Ultimatum." "Love Wins 🏆," he captioned a photo of them. "When you're committed to the journey and you're locked in on the destination you'll inevitably be faced with trials & tribulations along the way. It's never about the adversity itself that you're faced with but rather how you overcome it..together. In this life the greatness of your heart, which extends beyond this universe, can be overshadowed by the shortcomings of your humanly actions. Those who recognize that aren't quick to judge but are faster to lend a hand. Those are the people who will endure the journey with you 🔐 This experience has been one for the books but it's time to turn the page 📖."
That same day, Lisa shared a letter on her Instagram [5] apologizing for some of her actions on the show. The letter also revealed that she and Brian are attending relationship counseling. "Accountability. Discipline. Growth. ❤️," she wrote. "Understand, this is not my first apology. I could not address anything until everything was aired. I appreciate those that hold me accountable with love. I'm not perfect and would never pretend to be but I have learned and grown . . . and will continue to do so."
Are Kat and Alex From "The Ultimatum" Still Together?
Kat gave the ultimatum to Alex. Though both of them struggled with communication and vulnerability over the course of the show, they seemed to be working on that by the end, and Alex also got a crash course in what he didn't want during his trial marriage with Roxanne. Eventually, Alex popped the question, and Kat accepted. As of the reunion, the pair have a wedding date set and Alex seems more than ready to buy a house and have kids with Kat.
Kat's most recent Instagram photo with Alex [6] is from June 2022, and Alex's most recent photo with Kat [7], aside from photos of them from the show, is from September 2022.
Are Antonio and Roxanne From "The Ultimatum" Still Together?
Antonio gave the ultimatum to Roxanne, whose ambitious, career-focused nature clashes a bit with his more laid-back demeanor. During the show, the duo worked on being more understanding and seemed to learn to appreciate each other more. Still, Roxanne remained unsure about whether she was going to accept Antonio's proposal as of the penultimate episode, though she eventually said yes. As of the reunion, the pair are still together and Antonio revealed that he and Roxane started their own business together. However, Roxane later shared that she still isn't wearing her engagement ring and is seemingly reluctant to actually get married.
While Antonio doesn't appear in any recent photos on Roxanne's Instagram [8], except for promotional photos from "The Ultimatum," Antonio's Instagram [9] features photos of himself and Roxanne from September 2022, as well as more recent photos from the show.
Are James and Ryann From "The Ultimatum" Still Together?
James and Ryann have been together since high school, and Ryann gave James the ultimatum as she couldn't understand why he wasn't ready to get married after years of dating. But Ryann wound up developing a close bond with fellow cast member Trey Brunson during their trial marriage, leading James to reevaluate his hesitation. Eventually, James proposed to Ryann, who happily accepted. During the reunion, the pair revealed that they set a wedding date and Ryann also said James moved in with her and her family, despite being initially resistant to cohabitating.
Ryann's Instagram doesn't seem to feature any photos of James except for photos from "The Ultimatum," while James's most recent photo with Ryann, other than show stills, was shared in September 2022 [10].
Are Trey and Riah From "The Ultimatum" Still Together?
Trey gave Riah the ultimatum. Riah was initially unsure she was ready to get married, citing stress about still needing to establish her career, but during the show, she found her trial marriage with James lacking and wound up growing jealous of Trey's bond with Ryann. Ultimately, Riah accepted Trey's marriage proposal and the pair were still together as of the reunion.
Neither Trey nor Riah's Instagrams [11] appear to include any photos of each other at the moment, except for a few stills from their time on "The Ultimatum."
