Queer Love — Are Sam and Aussie Still Together?

Five new couples are here and queer.

The first four episodes of The Ultimatum: Queer Love are now streaming on Netflix, and the LGBTQ+ cast of women and non-binary reality stars are already bringing the drama. With the trial marriages in full swing, the stakes are at an all-time high for the cast’s original relationships.

“When we first touched hands, it was like something you see in the movies,” Sam recalled of meeting her partner Aussie. “It was almost like the universe brought us together.”

Aussie also admitted to feeling an immediate spark upon meeting Sam. “Time stood still,” Aussie added. “Yeah, it was just magical. Like, butterflies and rainbows and unicorns.”

However, the duo is at a crossroads, with Sam ready for marriage and Aussie wanting to live together for five years before making that commitment. “Five years sounds like a long time,” Sam pointed out. “I’ve been waiting for like 10 already!”

Fortunately for Sam, Aussie doesn’t have any doubts about her being the one. However, the reality star admitted to having a longer “processing time” than Sam.

And that’s where the trial marriage comes in. If all goes according to plan, the reality romance experiment will “accelerate” Sam and Aussie’s relationship and end in a one-way ticket to marriage.

Some trial marriages weathered better than others, and neither Sam nor Aussie bonded well with their new partners in the experiment.

When Sam and her trial spouse Tiff moved in together, they immediately butted heads over Tiff’s dog. With Sam refusing to let her partner’s dog sleep in bed with them, Tiff opted to sleep on the couch with her pet, prompting an explosive argument between the duo the next morning.

As for Aussie and Mildred, the newly formed couple initially connected, but their flame fizzled out upon Mildred meeting Aussie’s close friend. “Ever since I met Aussie’s friend, Mo, I notice a different person in Aussie,” Mildred explained.

So, what does that mean for Sam and Aussie’s relationship?

With Sam and Aussie unable to connect with their partners on a deeper level, viewers wonder if they chose each other at the end of the queer reality romance series. However, with Aussie’s timeline significantly differing from Sam’s, the couple’s obstacles seem insurmountable.

While social media often offers clues into the current relationship statuses of each original couple in The Ultimatum: Queer Love, Sam’s lack of Instagram presence makes it difficult to determine whether she and her partner are still together in 2023.

But with Sam nowhere to be found on Aussie’s Instagram page, it could indicate that the couple is no longer together.
