Elys and Alex became one of two couples who ended up together in the finale of Too Hot To Handle season 5 and even dated for a while after. Even after breakup, they were still on good terms. Kinda.
But them Alex took it to comments and TikTok to say how “unfair” it was to post some of their old photos as he has a new girlfriend now. Well, Elys can’t agree with that.

Learn what the bombshell had to say about the drama with Alex, their breakup, his new boo, and more from these takeaways from Elys’ interview with Cosmopolitan UK.
Takeaways from Too Hot To Handle season 5’s Elys Hutchinson interview…
On recent social media shade
The reason why Elys posted those old photos together with Alex is simply because she wanted to let everyone take a glimpse of what had happened after Too Hot To Handle season 5. She actually gave Alex a heads up that she will share some pics. But he still wasn’t happy as he allegedly knew about the first post only, the breakup one.
“It’s completely out of line what he did on TikTok, and I’ve been nothing but respectful,” the blondie said.
On why she broke up with Alex
Their “motivation and career paths” were drastically different. Turned out she was the one who travelled a lot, while Alex stayed in his hometown and went to the gym.
“I guess you see someone’s true colours when you come outside of such a honeymoon setting,” Elys shared.
But he did agree to break up, so it’s fair to say that the decision was mutual (??).

On moving on from him
Okay, let’s make it clear once and for all. Elys is over Alex. She said she moved on to “bigger and better things.” The bombshell thinks it would be hard to post old photos with an ex, but that’s the level of maturity she’s now on 👏.

On Alex finding a new girlfriend
He found a new boo just two weeks after they broke up with Elys. Ouch.
Alex met her at the festival he was supposed to go to with the blondie and posted a story together for close friends. He said he didn’t know Elys was still on that list, too. As the show hadn’t aired at that time, she just had to “sit back and deal with that.”
