Alex and Elys make history on 'THTH' with a 12-minute kiss

Alex and Elys hit it off right from the start on 'THTH'. But, Elys was also interested in Hunter, who liked her back. To make sure he didn't miss out, Alex gave Elys some drinks and tried to flirt, though it didn't go perfectly. Despite that, Elys still liked Alex and enjoyed spending time with him. As things progressed, Alex decided to focus on Megan because he thought Elys and Hunter were happy together. However, he didn't know that Elys was actually getting jealous of him for paying attention to Megan. To sort out the confusion, the show's host, Lana, sent Elys and Hunter on a date. During their date, Lana asked Elys to choose between Alex and Hunter. Elys picked Alex, which made Hunter upset, but he backed off and let them continue. Back at the house, Alex was told about Elys's decision and asked to choose between her and Megan. He agreed to go on a date with Elys, which made Hunter and Megan unhappy, especially when Alex and Elys decided to share a bed as a new couple. Once they became a couple, Alex and Elys began to explore their emotional bond. However, they couldn't resist their physical desires any longer and ended up sharing a passionate kiss under the sheets one night. This intimate moment lasted for an astonishing 12 minutes, making it the longest kiss ever on the show. Usually, kisses on the show lasted around 1.5 minutes, as Lana mentioned.

Bryce, a newcomer, asked Elys out on a date at the beach. At first, Alex felt uneasy about it but knew he had to trust Elys and their relationship. After meeting Bryce, Elys admitted that he was exactly her type, which made Alex even more anxious. During the date, Alex had the option to spy on them from afar and get more information from Lana, the host. He had to decide whether to let Elys continue the date or switch her out for someone else from the retreat. Alex was torn and thought about ending their date and sending Megan instead, who seemed interested in the idea. However, he chose to trust Elys and didn't cut their date short. Alex was really nervous about how the date would turn out. To his relief, Elys confessed that she connected with Bryce but felt a stronger bond with Alex. She said that Alex was the one who made her laugh like nobody else. Lana, impressed with their connection, allowed them to share a kiss without any consequences.

Are Alex and Elys still together?

As of now, it's unclear if Alex and Elys are still together, as there hasn't been much information on their social media accounts. The show's premiere hinted at some challenging moments ahead, with Alex expressing that there will be some head-scratching decisions to make. From what has been shown, it appears that the couple will face difficult choices during their time on the show. In one reveal, Lana mentioned that one person could leave the retreat villa with a tempting prize of $25K, but they would have to do it without their partner. This announcement seemed to fire up Alex, and he appeared to be in a dilemma about what to do. The future of their relationship on the show remains uncertain, and viewers will have to watch and see how everything unfolds for Alex and Elys.
