At the end of “Perfect Match” season one, Dom Gabriel and Georgia Hassarati were voted the best couple by the other contestants. The pair first matched in episode five after Francesca Farago, Gabriel’s original partner, went on a date with Damian Powers, whom she had a history with.
Despite being put on several dates in attempts to split them up, Hassarati and Gabriel stuck it out and ended up winning the show.
However, the pair told Insider that they ended up breaking up after the show so they could focus on their respective careers.
“I feel like there were a lot of strong couples in the house at the end, so it didn’t really register that we won until a while after,” Hassarati told Insider. “But my relationship with Dom is really good now. We’re not together, unfortunately, but we’re both super focused on ourselves and I’m just focused on starting my brand and my career and he’s doing the same. So we’re in a good place.”
Gabriel added in an interview with Insider that distance was a factor in their breakup.
“Obviously, coming out of a show like that where cameras are on you and there are no distractions, and going to the real world, you try to make it work, and distance and careers get in the way,” he said. “I think we both just kind of said, ‘Let’s kind of focus on ourselves and if we come together in the future and it’s meant to be then, you know, it’s meant to be.’”
What is unclear is how Harry Jowsey fits into the situation.
Beginning in the summer of 2022, Hassarati has been in a public on-off romance with the “Too Hot To Handle” season one star. However, “Perfect Match” was filmed early last year too.
In the “Where Are They Now?” video published on Netflix’s YouTube channel last week, Gabriel said that his and Hassarati’s relationship ended “before we even got the chance to redeem our prize.”
“We were still talking,” Gabriel said. “We were together and she had to go do a certain podcast. The podcast came out and the title of the podcast was ‘Georgia and Harry Jowsey Fall in Love.’ Yeah, I would say I was blindsided.”
Since the video was published, Hassarati and Gabriel have disputed how the relationship ended over social media, with both contestants sharing private messages they had sent one another.
On Thursday, Hassarati appeared on “The Viall Files” podcast to address the dispute.
The “Too Hot To Handle” star said that she and Gabriel broke up on the night they filmed the finale because they got into an argument after he allegedly lied about another contestant, Ines Tazi, having feelings for him.
Hassarati added that they continued to talk after the show but ended their relationship completely the day after the podcast with Jowsey aired because their relationship “didn’t work” in the real world.
“It’s just so unfortunate because it didn’t go that way and we were both not happy the whole amount of time that we spent together and things were coming to an end,” she said.
