Netflix’s ‘Perfect Match’ is all about exploring one’s options and breaking preconceived ideas about dating while trying to find the ideal partner. In the series, physical challenges during the game and emotional challenges while pursuing connections are both equally important. In season 4, Marissa George and DeMari Davis met each other on the very first day and quickly focused only on one another. Though threats to their connection were constant and difficult for them to navigate, they did not let those obstacles hold them back.
Marissa and DeMari Ended the Season by Each Other’s Side
On the very first day, Marissa George met DeMari Davis and immediately felt drawn to him. He reciprocated her feelings, and as soon as they got a chance to have a personal conversation, they decided that they would pair up and become a team. In the first challenge, Marissa and DeMari showed great compatibility and won, which gave them two advantages. The couple got a chance to go on a date alone, and they were also sent to the boardroom to decide which new contestants would join the villa and test existing connections. The next morning, when they were shown prospective contestants, Brianna “Bri” Balram was one of them. DeMari was adamant about not letting his ex in, and Marissa suspected it might be because he still had feelings for her. In the next challenge, the couple won again and returned to the boardroom.
At the singles party, Marissa ended up kissing Weston as she was trying to figure out what she really felt for Demari. On the other hand, Demari had a confrontational conversation with Bri but also enjoyed spending time with Kayla. After returning, Marissa was not too pleased to see Kayla and Demari getting close, but she was open about her kiss with Weston. The next day was not easy for either of them, as they were chosen to go on dates with Weston and Kayla, respectively. Both of them began questioning what their future together would look like, especially because of the way they handled arguments and conflict. In the end, after ending a date with Bri, DeMari chose Marissa once again. They did not win the season, but they won the hearts of many by overcoming so many obstacles together.
Marissa and DeMari Are No Longer in a Romantic Relationship
Marissa and DeMari struggled with several issues in their relationship, especially when it came to the way they handled arguments and disagreements. Marissa openly spoke about dealing with rejection sensitivity because of her ADHD, while DeMari often felt that he was not fully understood in many situations. Since the season ended, the two have shared that they are no longer together and eventually realized they were better off remaining friends. In fact, Marissa later revealed that she had reconnected with an ex-boyfriend from around 13 years ago and felt a spark with him again. She actually moved into a completely new phase of her life and happily tied the knot with him in March 2026. From what we can tell, they plan to relocate to Japan together relatively soon.
On the other hand, DeMari has said that he is now approaching relationships much more intentionally and wants to date with marriage in mind. He has expressed that he hopes to find someone who supports his life goals and encourages him to pursue everything he wants to achieve. Despite their breakup, the two appear to remain on good terms and are grateful for the experience they shared together and the lessons they learned from it. Today, they are simply friends and seem happy that they were able to maintain a cordial relationship.
