If there’s one thing to come from Beauty and the Geek, it’s the sweet romances and friendships that culminate between the pairs. And this year, all eyes have been on Heidi and Mike.
While, yes, every season of the empowering TV show is bound to pull on your heartstrings, there’s something about this particular round of hopefuls that has us hooked.
For those in need of a refresher, Heidi is a country girl through and through, who is following her passions to become a police officer. Ambitious and determined, the 20-year-old “hype girl” moved from her small town to the big city of Melbourne to follow her dreams. Now, she’s hoping to find someone special, whether that be a best friend or something more.
“I’ve always gone for the same type of person and I need to change it up. It will be really nice to meet someone who could be my best friend or to find love, but I just want to find someone who will appreciate me for me,” she said.
As you may know, Heidi has been matched with Mike on the 2022 season of the show and has been looking forward to building a deep connection with him, especially after his makeover.
When it comes to Mike, the 20-year-old is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to hosting trivia nights, but put him in one-on-one situation with girls and he freezes.
“I talk to fill space to make sure there’s no silence or opportunity for awkwardness. In intimate conversations I find I fidget and get stressed,” he said, as per Nine Now.
But did the unlikely pair go the distance? Well, we deep dive into whether the couple are still together after Beauty and the Geek below.
So, are Beauty And The Geek’s Heidi and Mike still together?
During the third mixer on Beauty and the Geek, Mike revealed that he had a bit of a crush on Heidi, which saw host Sophie Monk pair them up for the show.
Throughout the episodes, Heidi and Mike’s relationship kicked up several notches, even more so after Mike’s transformation. But it was after Heidi shared that she’d never been asked out on a date before, that Mike found the courage to plan a romantic dinner for the two to enjoy.
“I’m actually feeling more nervous. This has never happened before, I don’t know what to expect,” she told Monk.
Knowing the high stakes for Heidi, Mike wanted to make sure everything was perfect by preparing a romantic fine dining experience for them, and even handing her a hand-written love letter. By the end of the night, the pair sealed their date with a slow dance, and yes, their first kiss.
“I’m so happy and I know this is just the beginning. There’s so much more for us,” Mike told the camera.
But as for whether they made it out in the real world is another question. For the 2022 season, it’s known that the show’s producers have kept each contestants’ Instagram accounts under lock and key until every episode is finished airing.
While both Heidi and Mike still follow each other on the social media platform, which is a good sign, neither of the pair have liked each other’s posts outside of the Beauty and the Geek content. And unless producers are enforcing strict guidelines on how much contestants can engage with the platform (to avoid spoilers, of course), it does seem as if Heidi and Mike might not have stayed together in the end, after all.
Despite this, it’ll still be worth keeping your eyes peeled here for updates as the episodes air and as more love potentially brews between the two.
You can check out new episodes (and catch up on old episodes) of Beauty and the Geek on Channel Nine or Nine Now at 7:30pm Monday to Wednesday and 8pm on Sundays.
