Who is Ethan Smith?

Ethan Smith is one of the two new wild cards introduced in Season 4 of ‘Too Hot To Handle’. The handsome 26-year-old hunk is from Bristol, United Kingdom, and basically looks like a greek god with a spectacular physique. The Englishman also describes himself as a “bad boy” and says he loves cuddling. Ethan’s Instagram page boasts more than 13.8K followers, and he mostly posts photos of his fun times with his friends, mirror selfies, gym clicks and beach pictures. He also seems interested in dirt biking and weight training. The British hunk’s defining features are perhaps his lush dark hair and tattoo-covered physique.

As per tradition, the series adds a few additional contestants later in the season to shake things up between the budding couples on the show. These new participants are then allowed to pick any contestants to go on a date with and are given a free pass to a kiss by the automated matron, Lana. Ethan initially showed interest in Sophie Stonehouse after picking her for the date. However, after his flirting tactics and hopes for a peck were crushed by the brunette, he later set his sights on the bubbly blonde Brittan.



 

Speaking about the blonde, Ethan said, “She’s absolutely lush,” adding, “I know she’s with James at the moment, but I don’t care, I always get what I want.” He complimented Brittan for her blue eyes and continued to flirt with her by making eye contact with her. Noticing the interaction, James was seemingly jealous of the Englishman trying to steal his girl. Brittan also expressed her interest in Ethan in her confessional, saying he caught her attention, despite liking James. Throughout the first five episodes, it was also evident that Brittan was hoping James would get “more physical” with her, but the latter had stuck to adhering to the house rules, leaving Brittan severely frustrated. The aggravation finally got the best of the model when Ethan asked if she wanted to change up her sleeping arrangement and share his bed. Brittan jumped at the opportunity. This new turn of events upset James who confessed that “nice guys definitely finish last.”

New episodes of ‘Too Hot To Handle’ Season 4 will drop on Wednesday, December 14 on Netflix.
