  • Ashley and Grant start new relationships on Netflix’s ‘Temptation Island.’ What we know about who they’re dating.

    • Ashley and Grant arrive as a couple on Netflix’s “Temptation Island,” hoping to mend their relationship.
    • However, Grant cheats and moves on to Natalie, and Ashley dates Danny and Logan.
    • Here’s what we know about who Ashley, Grant, Natalie, Danny, and Logan are dating.

    Ashley and Grant went on Netflix’s first season of “Temptation Island” to mend their trust issues.

    Instead, they found new lovers. And it seems that Ashley could still be with her new beau, Danny.

    Losing your partner is the risk contestants take when they sign up for the dating show, where couples are separated and taken to live with singles who try to seduce them.

    On this season, which is Netflix’s first, four couples are featured, including Ashley and Grant. Ashley says on the show that Grant cheated on her a month into their relationship.

    “Over time, it’s just built up into this huge mess of mistrust and resentment, and I think if we can get through this, maybe it will clear that up,” Grant says.

    Grant says he wants to prove to Ashley and his daughter from a previous relationship that he can keep his word and resist temptation.

    Grant cheats on Ashley, so she starts dating two other men.

    Grant and Natalie date for a majority of the season.

    Ashley and Grant stay committed to each other in the first few days of the process.

    But in the first of the show’s bonfires in episode two, where contestants are shown what their partners have been up to, Grant sees a clip of Ashley complaining about his behavior and saying she’s “never going to trust him.”

    Grant says this hurts him, and he gets closer to Natalie, one of the single contestants. By the end of episode three, Grant and Natalie kiss, and have sex in a shower in the following episode.

    At the episode five bonfire, Ashley says she feels “relief” after seeing the videos of Grant cheating.

    “I think I’ve been waiting for this. I’ve been waiting for the proof,” Ashley says.

    Grant initially regrets cheating. But after he sees another clip of Ashley bad-mouthing him at the bonfire, he deepens his relationship with Natalie when he returns to the villa.

    At the same time, Ashley announces that she’s single and starts to properly pursue Logan and Danny. As the show continues, she gets closer to Danny, eventually kissing him off-camera in episode six.

    When Grant and Ashley reunite during the season one finale, he says he wants to leave the show alone, seemingly splitting up with Ashley and Natalie. Meanwhile, Ashley leaves the show in a relationship with Danny.

    Ashley and Danny may still be dating, while it seems Grant and Natalie are over.

    It seems likely Ashley and Danny are still together

    The finale aired a week ago, but none of the couples have publicly confirmed their relationship status. This could mean that Netflix is planning a reunion episode or will publish a “Where Are They Now” video like they do for “Perfect Match.” Netflix declined to comment when contacted by Business Insider.

    But on Tuesday, Ashley shared a photo of her and Danny on Instagram, captioned: ‘This man always had me smiling ☺️”

    They also follow each other on Instagram and TikTok. On their TikTok and Instagram feeds, they have shared videos featuring Logan where they joke about their throuple dynamic on the show.

    On Monday, Ashley shared an Instagram story with a picture of her and Danny showing their close body language before the show’s premiere party on March 15, captioned “eyes up here.”

    That day, Ashley reposted a video on her story of her interactions with Danny on the show, captioned: “Wouldn’t have survived without you.”

    There are not many clues online about Grant’s relationship status. On Sunday, he posted a video on Instagram and TikTok defending Natalie and told viewers to stop sending her hate.

    Grant follows Natalie on both Instagram and TikTok, but she doesn’t follow him. Natalie follows Ashley on Instagram. This suggests that Grant and Natalie are likely not together anymore. Natalie also hasn’t said anything supporting Grant amid the backlash against them.

    Season one of Netflix’s “Temptation Island” is available to stream.

  • After a threesome and a lot of tears, Brion and Shanté from Netflix’s ‘Temptation Island’ might still be together

    A still of "Temptation Island" showing Brion Whitely hugging Shanté Glover in front of a beach background.
    Brion and Shanté appeared on “Temptation Island” a year into their relationship.

    • Brion and Shanté are one of the most controversial couples on Netflix’s first season of “Temptation Island.”
    • Brion cheats on Shanté by having a threesome with two other women on the show.
    • They appear to still be dating.

    Warning: Major spoilers ahead for “Temptation Island” season one.

    On Netflix’s “Temptation Island,” Brion fails the commitment test his girlfriend sets him by having a threesome.

    But it seems Brion and Shanté are still together.

    Brion, a 26-year-old financial advisor, and Shanté, a 29-year-old account executive, are one of the four main couples on Netflix’s first season of “Temptation Island.” The series first premiered on Fox in 2001. But after a reboot on USA in 2019, which lasted five seasons, Netflix acquired the rights and added “Temptation Island” to its growing slate of dating shows.

    In the series, couples are separated and put in a house full of singles eager to test if they will cheat.

    In the first episode, Brion says he met Shanté through a mutual friend at his church and they have dated for a year.

    They say they want to take part in the experiment to affirm their commitment to one another.

    “I’m just at the point now where I want to show her that I can stop being so flirtatious,” Brion says. “I think I’m just ready to take our relationship serious.”

    Brion says he broke up with Shanté early on in the relationship to be with another woman, but returned after realizing that “the grass isn’t greener.”

    Shanté says that Brion is a “really sexual person” and has asked her to work on “being more sexual towards him.”

    While the women in relationships on “Temptation Island” initially don’t show any interest in the single men, the men flirt with the single women once they are separated from their partners.

    Brion bonds with four women — Amiah, Courtney, Angel, and Alex. He complains to them that he wants a threesome and to be sexually adventurous, but his girlfriend isn’t interested.

    In episode four, Alex and Brion enter his bathroom together and close the door. There is no camera angle to show what happens in the room, making him look suspicious.

    In episode five, Courtney and Alex ask Brion if he would like to have a threesome, and they make some telling noises in the bathroom and leave naked the next morning.

    After the threesome with Alex and Courtney, Brion stops interacting with them and votes them off the show.

    Every few episodes, the original couples congregate at separate bonfires for the men and women to be shown brief clips of what their partners have been doing.

    Shanté is upset and shocked by Brion’s behavior, and he feels a little remorseful when he sees that he made her cry. But Brion believes she will take him back and decides to be more faithful for the remainder of the series.

    When the couple reunite at the end of the series, Shanté criticizes Brion for cheating and saying he doesn’t regret the threesome. Brion tears up, apologizes, and says he’s a changed man.

    Shanté says she wants to put herself first and initially seems to be breaking up with him, but after a long conversation, she takes him back because she believes he’s matured.

    Instagram clues suggest Brion and Shanté are still together after ‘Temptation Island’

    Shanté agrees to continue her relationship with Brion in the “Temptation Island” finale.

    The couple follow each other on Instagram and have liked each other’s recent posts. This could indicate that they’re still together. Brion also follows Shanté’s TikTok account, but her follow list is private.

    Like the other couples on “Temptation Island,” Brion and Shanté have not shared a post with one another on either platform since April 2024 — likely to avoid spoiling the show. (Netflix hasn’t confirmed when the show was filmed.)

    On closer inspection of their Instagram pages, Brion and Shanté have posted photographs since April last year where they appear to be in the same location. This could indicate they are still dating, or at least civil enough to be in the same room.

    On June 26, 2024, they both shared pictures from an event with similar brown and cream carpets.

    On July 7, 2024, Brion shared a carousel of pictures of himself. One of the pictures was taken at night with a wall in the background.

    On July 24, 2024, Shanté shared a post that seems to be in the same location.

    One reason the couples on the show haven’t confirmed their relationship statuses is that Netflix may be planning a reunion episode, like the original show did. Alternatively, Netflix could adopt their model for “Perfect Match” by publishing a “Where Are They Now” video a few days after a season drops.

    Netflix declined to comment when contacted by Business Insider.
