The episode 9 recap confirms one specific result: Andrew Spencer and Alexe Godwin won the “Sharp Opinions” challenge, and the episode ended with a preview of the season 10 finale. It does not establish a complete episode-end status for every couple. The later relationship updates below are dated separately so they are not mistaken for what viewers saw in episode 9.
What episode 9 confirms
The available recap excerpt says Jesse announced Andrew Spencer and Alexe Godwin as the “Sharp Opinions” challenge winners. The episode then closed with a preview of the season 10 finale. The recap page was unavailable to review in full, so this evidence does not establish the episode’s complete chronology or the end-of-episode status of every pairing. AOL’s episode 9 recap

What happened to the couples after filming
The following is later context, not an account of episode 9. Us Weekly’s roundup, updated September 8, 2026, describes these outcomes:
- Jess Edwards and Spencer Conley: They became engaged in the finale. In September 2026, they announced that they had ended their engagement and relationship.
- Kat Izzo and Dale Moss: They left Costa Rica as a couple and said after the finale that they were still going strong.
- Andrew Spencer and Alexe Godwin: They became boyfriend and girlfriend in the finale.
- Jeremy Simon and Bailey Brown: They were still dating after the show and discussed plans to move in together.
- Kathy Swarts and Keith Gordon: Their connection became a friendship in Costa Rica, and they removed themselves from the final test.
- Leslie Fhima and Gary Levingston: They left holding hands. Leslie later described Gary as one of her best friends and said she did not know what the relationship could become.
- Faith Martin and Kim Buike: They continued their relationship after leaving the show early.
- Allyshia Gupta and Sean McLaughlin: They maintained a bond after the show, but were no longer romantically involved by the reunion.
- Parisa Shifteh and Brian Autz: They described their time together as a “good run” and remained close friends.
These are the statuses reported in Us Weekly’s September 8, 2026 roundup; they should not be read as a real-time update beyond that article’s date.
