The Ultimate 'Are You The One?' Season 2 Cast Update: Who Found Their Perfect Match, Who Got Married, And Who Welcomed A Baby In 2024
The second season of MTV's groundbreaking reality dating experiment, Are You The One?, remains one of the most chaotic and memorable installments in the show's history. Premiering in late 2014, the season introduced 22 hopefuls to a beautiful house in Puerto Rico, tasked with identifying their 11 "Perfect Matches" to win a shared $1 million prize. Unlike the first season, Season 2 added a major twist: one male contestant, Layton Jones, was a "No Match" with two different women, complicating the strategy and leading to one of the show's most dramatic blackouts. A decade later, as of late 2024, the lives of the Season 2 cast members have evolved dramatically, featuring marriages, children, successful careers, and continued reality TV fame, often with people who were *not* their designated Perfect Match.
This comprehensive, up-to-date analysis delves into the full cast, reveals the official Perfect Matches, and provides the latest details on where these reality TV stars are now, including the surprising couple who found lasting love outside the Truth Booth's predictions.

The Non-Perfect Match Couple Who Found True Love and Got Married
The biggest success story to emerge from Are You The One? Season 2 is a shocking twist of fate, proving the "experts" don't always know best.
Curtis Hadzicki and Jenni Knapmiller, who were matched with other people in the house (Curtis with Shelby Yardley; Jenni with John Moustis), began dating after the season ended. Their post-show relationship flourished, becoming one of the most stable and long-lasting partnerships in the history of the show's entire franchise.
In October 2020, Curtis proposed to Jenni, announcing their engagement to the delight of fans. They officially tied the knot, solidifying their status as an AYTO success story, despite the Truth Booth's initial denial. Their journey is a testament to the fact that while the show can identify a "perfect match" for compatibility, real-life chemistry and timing are often more powerful forces in finding a soulmate. They represent a major entity of success for the franchise outside of the predetermined matches.
Where Are The Are You The One? Season 2 Cast Members Now in 2024?
A decade after their debut, the Season 2 cast has moved on to diverse careers, new relationships, and even parenthood. The recent updates in 2024 show a cast that has largely moved past their reality TV beginnings.
The Reality TV Challengers: Dario and Briana
Two cast members from Season 2 leveraged their time on AYTO into further reality television careers on MTV’s competitive series, The Challenge, building significant topical authority in the reality TV world.
- Dario Medrano: After his time in the house, Dario became a prominent figure on The Challenge, appearing in multiple seasons including Battle of the Exes II, Rivals III, and Invasion of the Champions. He remains a well-known entity in the reality TV sphere, often focusing on fitness and modeling in his current life.
- Briana LaCuesta: Briana also transitioned to The Challenge, competing in Rivals III and Dirty 30. The freshest update for Briana is her personal life: she recently welcomed her first child, a son named Koa Alan, in a major life milestone that fans celebrated across social media in 2024.
The Perfect Matches Who Called It Quits
While the group won the money, most of the Perfect Matches did not last in the real world.
- Tyler Pratt and Paris Eike: This couple was one of the strongest in the house, being confirmed as a Perfect Match early on. However, they ultimately broke up after the show. As of 2024, Paris Eike is based in Denver, Colorado, and works as a business development manager, focusing on her corporate career. Tyler Pratt remains in Orlando, Florida, and is reportedly in a new, long-term relationship.
- John Moustis and Jenni Knapmiller: Though they were a Perfect Match, they did not pursue a relationship. John Moustis is now a lawyer, affiliated with Lawyers for the Creative Arts, and is based out of Chicago, Illinois, a major career pivot from his reality TV days. Jenni, of course, went on to marry castmate Curtis Hadzicki.
Career and Lifestyle Updates (2024 Entities)
Many other cast members have found success and stability in diverse professional fields, adding to the total number of relevant entities in this update.
- Christina LeBlanc: The cast member who complicated Layton's match is now living in San Diego, California. She works for a solar company, helping clients with financial solar loans. Christina is also known for her involvement in "Flo-arts," which includes fire dancing and hula hooping, showcasing a unique and artistic side.
- Alexandria Rice & Anthony Bartolotte: The Perfect Match couple, who had a tumultuous relationship on the show, did not stay together. Anthony Bartolotte is now pursuing a career in law, similar to John Moustis, and is based in the New York area. Alexandria Rice has kept a lower profile but remains a popular figure on social media.
- Shelby Yardley: Curtis’s Perfect Match has largely stepped away from the reality TV spotlight, focusing on her personal life and career outside of the public eye.
- Nathan Siebenmark & Ellie Puckett: This Perfect Match couple also broke up after the show. Nathan has focused on his career in the finance sector, while Ellie has been active in the beauty and lifestyle space.
The journey of the Are You The One? Season 2 cast demonstrates that the show is merely the beginning. While the Perfect Matches provided a path to a $1 million prize, the real-life connections, like the marriage of Curtis and Jenni, and the career successes of John and Christina, prove that the most compelling stories happen long after the cameras stop rolling.
