Right after the show aired last December, the “Too Hot To Handle” runner-up spoke with Tudum and revealed that their current relationship status can be described as “complicated” due to the distance. “Since stepping down, Seb and I have had a very unconventional relationship,” says Kayla. “The way we met is incredible, and always remembering that we come from two different worlds… always helps us continue to grow together.”

Sebastian says that the skills they learned at the retreat have helped the couple’s communication, as he has stopped “running” from his feelings. Despite the distance, Sebastian told the outlet, “Kayla and I talk every day. We share our thoughts and feelings and we are both determined to continue this beautiful relationship on different continents.”
