I Am Embarrassingly Emotionally Invested In Harry & Beaux From ‘Too Hot To Handle’
ICYMI, we cover a lot of reality TV shows here at Punkee and a lot of them are dating shows. And one of our favourites is Netflix’s super horny, weirdly addictive series Too Hot To Handle.
In case you haven’t seen the show before the premise is fairly simple: a bunch of sexy singles are shipped off to an island but things aren’t what they seem. Once on the island, the attractive and horny singles are told they can’t kiss, have sex, or self-pleasure – that’s right, they need to try and form connections that aren’t just physical.
For every rule break, the prize fund grows smaller and smaller and every move is watched by a virtual assistant, Lana, who docks money from the horndogs that keep breaking the rules.
Now for a show about hot singles who fear commitment, Too Hot To Handle has had some form of success with couples staying together after the show: the first season saw Harry Jowsey and Francesca Farago make it work for a while on and off before calling it quits for good, and Season 2’s Emily Miller and Cam Holmes are still going strong.
If you haven’t finished Season 3 of Too Hot To Handle yet, please note if you keep reading there are SPOILERS ahead…
The best love story to come out of Season 3 was, of course, between eventual winners Harry Johnson and Beaux Raymond. The two hit it off as good friends, before admitting they had feelings for each other, with Harry asking Beaux to be his girlfriend on a romantic boat date.
At the Too Hot To Handle reunion, the two admitted to breaking up after the show, citing distance as the reason. “Our relationship status now is single, but we do talk every day,” Harry said. “Who knows what could happen? Obviously, we haven’t seen each other yet. We struggled a lot with the distance, and when we came back to the UK, we were in a full lockdown.”
“Never say never,” Beaux added.

If the adorable twosome also tickled your heart, then if you’re anything like me you’ve been keeping an active eye on their social media in the hopes that they’ll confirm they’re back together.

Since the show has aired, the two have finally been able to catch up and appear to be super loved up on Instagram, though they haven’t confirmed if they’re 100% back together.

In an interview with Narcity recently, Beaux had this to say:
“We’ve rekindled the last few weeks, and it’s been really, really good…If we do try again, which I think we are, we are going to obviously cope with the distance stuff, and I’ve got a feeling he might move a little bit nearer to me anyway.”
Please, HarryBeaux. We need this.
wish nothing but harrybeaux to post something on v-day ??
