Elys and Hunter LoNigro became the first couple to form before the singles discovered they were part of the show. The two shared an instant and mutual attraction that led them to couple up almost immediately.
Their connection, however, proved to be a catalyst for several rule breaks within the house, causing the prize money to decrease significantly during the early days of the retreat. Despite their physical chemistry, Elys began to realize that she and Hunter were not compatible intellectually, which created a dilemma for her.
As Elys couldn’t shake her thoughts about another contestant named Alex, she made the difficult decision to explore her connection with him instead. Ultimately, she ended her relationship with Hunter, hoping that her potential connection with Alex would be a better fit.
In Episode 2, Elys found herself kissing Hunter twice, driven by their physical chemistry. However, she soon recognized that the depth of connection she desired was missing. Meanwhile, Alex understood Elys’ predicament and chose to accept the situation, eventually pursuing a connection with Megan.
