Couple To Throuple Season One Has Come To An End! Where Are These Throuples Now?

After nine episodes of Couple to Throuple, we've finally arrived at the conclusion, and these couples and singles have been a joy to watch. Though this episode isn’t quite as messy, raunchy, and dramatic as the others, the couples finally answer the tough question: Is polyamory meant for them?

Last week, we left off right after the family visits, which allowed the couples to answer many burning questions from their loved ones. This was an opportunity for the couples to not oly justify their relationships, but to step out of their little bubble in paradise where everyone accepts them and truly think about how polyamory would work with their current lifestyles.

We start this week's episode with each couple basking in their happiness and reflecting on their journey. From Rehman, Ashmal, and Jonathan getting pretty frisky bright and early to Brittne having an emotional moment. We rarely see Brittne show any heavy emotions as she typically needs time to think through her feelings, but this moment was so raw, authentic, and beautiful. I am sure she will always cherish being able to step into an environment that was fully supportive and accepting of who she is, empowering her do the same for herself.

Though we love all the emotions and affection, it wouldn’t be Couple to Throuple without a challenge and just a little bit of tea. This being the end, each couple’s third will have to leave until they come back to decide whether or not they will commit, leaving each couple and single to consider whether or not they are want to step out of paradise together or apart.

The night before the ceremony, the couples had a dinner where they shared their experience and feelings about coming to an end. Initially, it’s a wholesome moment where Rehman tells everyone that he wasn’t aware Ashmal had feelings, but it quickly turns into a moment for the couples to question each other's relationships. Or more accurately, a moment for Rehman, Ashmal, Maximo, and Ash to indirectly insult each other. Rehman's question about the genuineness of other couples' relationships sparks tension. And all of sudden I find myself agreeing with Rehman for the second time in a row. Who would have guess that? But he is right, how can you go from a lack of emotional connection to suddenly connecting so deeply? It didn’t make much sense and felt very inauthentic. Dylan, being the level-headed one, ended the conversation with peace and hope for everyone because it's evident that they needed to diffuse the situation. This leaves just one question: what did each couple decide?

Let’s start with Lauren, Dylan, and Jess. At the beginning of Lauren and Dylan’s journey, many questions were raised about their true intentions. From jumping into bed with Becca on the first night to swapping Mia due to a lack of physical connection, it seemed they weren’t seeking a genuine connection. However, they proved me wrong with their connection to the beautiful Jess. Since being with Jess, they have been extremely happy and excited to go at her pace physically and foster an emotional connection that allows their intimacy to come naturally. In the commitment ceremony, Jess was nervous about the couple understanding of her feelings towards their physical relationship, even pulling them aside to reiterate those concerns. In the end, they both ultimately decided to step forward, committing to being in a relationship. This decision wasn't surprising as they seemed to blend together well, owing it to themselves to try and make it work. Despite this commitment, the throuple only lasted three months before breaking up due to distance, but they still remain friends. AND OH, crazy thing — Lauren and Dylan are having a baby!

Maximo and Ash truly brought everything they could to this resort. The drama was present from beginning to end and, despite their initial positive energy and grace, they ended up being the most secretive and messy of all the couples. On one hand, Becca has been true to herself from the start, opening up to the experience. However, she has never been the top priority for any of these couples. It's not surprising when she doesn’t step forward, as she has realized that by committing to them, she would be settling for being an option rather than the one. While Maximo and Ash had no reason not to trust Becca, they also did not step forward, suggesting that because Becca expressed concerns to her friends, she was fooling them. To be honest, they seemed a bit resentful, but what did they expect? They didn’t genuinely want her, they were settling for her. I believe Becca won the ultimate prize because she remained confident and never strayed from her identity. And we can’t forget her friendship with Jonathan. That’s true love. Meanwhile, Maximo and Ash are still exploring polyamory in their personal lives in New York City.

Moving into Brittne and Sean, two icons who brought laughter, growth, and love to the table. From the beginning, this couple has remained steadfast, deepening their connection while in the house. They have consistently supported each other's feelings and provided space for communication, even during disagreements or differing perspectives. Their journey with Darrien has allowed them to grow immensely and build a solid relationship. However, Darrien's fear of commitment and tendency to become bored posed a challenge, making it a significant step for her to close off to just Sean and Brittne. Despite this, both the couple and the single Darrien stepped forward, committing to each other and leaving paradise as a throuple.

Our final couple, Rehamn and Ashmal have been apart of most, if not, all the drama in the house and I never expected them to get here. Yet, here they are, basking in all the joy and nervousness of their possible future. It is no secret that this couple has experienced plenty of ups and downs, with Ashmal even debating whether he wanted to continue on this journey at one point. They seem to never be on the same page, often leading to a big blow-up in front of everyone. But it seems as though being in an environment such as this one forced them to confront a lot of their relationship issues.

In the end, they learned more about how to communicate and Rehman even had a major break through, realizing Ashmal has emotions like every other human. Jonathan has been with the guys from day one, experiencing all their drama and, let's be honest, bringing some of his own. Jonathan does have fears about where he will fit into the boys' lives, especially when they are arguing. But they have all grown so much over the last episodes, especially after Jonathan reentered the house with Maximo and Ash. They have worked so hard on keeping their relationship that it would almost be a waste of time not to commit to each other. Jonathan decided to throw away the idea of stepping forward and just ask the boys if they wanted to be his boyfriends, which they enthusiastically said yes to. The throuple continued their relationship for three months as novios, but Ashmal eventually decided to end his relationship with both Jonathan and Rehamn. Rehman and Jonathan did remain together, but that did not last long. Despite this, Rehman and Ashmal remain friends, but they have no communication with Jonathan.

We also received an update on my OTP — Denyse, Wilder, and Corey — who are still going strong despite the distance. Denyse is hoping to move to LA soon to be closer to her partners. These three have really shown me so much about the power of connection and communication, and I will continue to root for their success.

Let’s just say, Peacock delivered everything and more with this new series Couple to Throuple. As for critiques, we need more episodes moving forward and it would be great to see more focus on the singles because, besides the ones who were in drama or were really entertaining, I did not gain any emotional connection to them. Perhaps taking a page out of the Love Island book and making it live could add to the excitement, enhancing the experience of watching the relationships unfold after the end of the season.

As of now, there has been no announcement of a season 2 for Couple to Throuple. And the fans are wondering, will there be a reunion? Watch the full season now streaming on Peacock.
