Who are Kat Shelton and Alex Chapman? 'The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On' couple met on a dating app
BLYTHEWOOD, SOUTH CAROLINA: 'The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On' is returning with an exciting second season featuring five new couples who want to test their relationships. Five sweethearts joined the show to figure out if they should get engaged or acknowledge that their current relationship might be over.
Among the couples are Kat Shelton and Alex Chapman, who loves adventure. Kat is a registered traveling nurse who seems to be more into traveling the world than settling down.
Kat attended the University of South Carolina and joined a sorority there. She also went to Blythewood High School.
Meanwhile, Alex Chapman works in software sales and lives in Charlotte, just like Kat. Alex's social media profile suggests he is a fan of the Chicago Blackhawks and likes running marathons, fishing, mountain climbing, and skiing.
Alex also enjoys going on road trips and can be often found off-roading at Rocky Mountain National Park. Both Kat and Alex love hiking and camping.
The couple met on the dating app Hinge with one swipe. Kat and Alex described their relationship as a "dating app success story."
Kat Shelton and Alex Chapman will soon celebrate two-year anniversary
After striking up a romance on Hinge, Kat Shelton and Alex Chapman opted to keep their relationship secret at least for a year. Kat eventually introduced Alex to her social media followers in November 2020.
In October 2021, Kat made their relationship official on their first dating anniversary. She shared a sweet and funny picture and wrote, "Our first picture together and we have come a long way! From traveling to the opposite side of the US and back I couldn’t have picked a cuter more adventurous partner 😉 love you 🌝↩️."
Kat and Alex's love for outdoor activities has made them a perfect couple. They will celebrate two years of dating in October 2023.
Kat Shelton and Alex Chapman to resolve 'communication conflicts' on 'The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On'
Although Kat Shelton and Alex Chapman have been together for around two years, they are still not on the same page about their future. Kat wants to settle down and marry the love of her life but Alex isn't ready yet.
Kat issued the ultimatum because she is convinced Alex is the love of her life, but he is more practical, and they struggle to express their emotions. Kat and Alex's relationship involves several communication issues.
Kat is a 'conflict avoidant' and prefers to leave it to her partner instead of making her own choices. Meanwhile, Alex "wants to be challenged by a partner who feels like his equal and isn’t afraid to speak their mind."
Kat's usual approach is to defer to Alex, but she decided to take their relationship to another level. They want to resolve their communication conflicts but their relationship will also be tested in the upcoming season of the Netflix show.
'The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On' Season 2 premiers on Wednesday, August 23, on Netflix.
