The Ultimatum: Queer Love is gearing up to air soon, and the cast of ten women has been announced. The hit Netflix show is the highly-anticipated follow-up to The Ultimatum: Marry Or Move On, which aired on Netflix last year. The first queer season of the show will feature ten women, as five couples enter the show to find out if they will get married or split up at the conclusion of the romantic experiment.
The Ultimatum: Queer Love will feature ten episodes that drop over three weeks. The first four episodes will be released when the show premieres on May 24. The following week, May 31, will have the next three episodes, with the final episodes concluding on June 7. The show is hosted by JoAnna Garcia Swisher, as opposed to The Ultimatum: Marry Or Move On hosts Vanessa and Nick Lachey. The cast features five original couples, Xander and Vanessa, Lexi and Rae, Mal and Yoly, Mildred and Tiff, and Sam and Aussie. Netflix released the Instagram accounts for all the featured women, minus Sam and Aussie, who don’t have Instagram.
Xander
Xander, age 30, is the partner of Vanessa Papa and the issuer of the ultimatum. The couple met because their boyfriends were best friends in high school, which led to them reconnecting years later after they both came out. They live in Hawaii and are now divided, as only Xander is ready for a serious commitment and starting a family. Xander can be found on Instagram under @xander.ology, where she lists herself as a Hawaii-based physical therapist. Xander goes by she/her/they pronouns.
Vanessa Papa
Vanessa, age 30, is the receiver of her partner Xander’s ultimatum. Unlike Xander, who is ready to settle down, Vanessa fears losing her freedom through marriage. However, she hasn’t spent more than three days apart from Xander since starting their relationship four years ago. While Xander has around 1.5K Instagram followers, Vanessa has under 1K on her profile, @itsvanessapapa. Vanessa lists herself as based in Los Angeles, which could be a hint that she’s no longer with Xander, who is based in Hawaii. Vanessa goes by she/her pronouns.
Lexi Goldberg
Lexi Goldberg, age 25, issued the ultimatum to her partner Rae. She’s described in her Netflix bio as “ready 130%” to spend her life with her partner of three-plus years. The couple met on Bumble, and have been inseparable after their first night out in West Hollywood. Lexi is by far the biggest star to appear on any season of The Ultimatum, as she has around 550K followers on her Instagram account, @lexicgoldberg, before her season even aired. The blonde bombshell is a social media sensation who describes herself as “once called ‘Our generation’s Pam Anderson’.” Lexi is also very active on TikTok under @lexicgoldberg. Lexi goes by she/her pronouns.
Raelyn
Raelyn, age 27, is Lexi’s partner and the receiver of the ultimatum. Unlike Lexi, Rae isn’t sure if she’s ready to get married due to her tendency to overanalyze things. Rae can be found on Instagram under @raelyn_cs. Unlike her social media star partner, Rae isn’t famous on social media and currently has under 3K followers. Rae describes herself as a “washed up baller” and “software engineer.” She appears to be more reserved than Lexi, and enjoys spending time with her close female friends. While Lexi appears to know exactly what she wants, Rae will likely have to discover what’s best for her on The Ultimatum: Queer Love. Rae goes by she/her pronouns.
Mal Wright
Mal Wright, age 36, is the receiver of her partner Yoly Rojas’ ultimatum. While Yoly is ready for commitment, Mal wants the couple to be on “stronger footing” financially before they commit to spending the rest of their lives together, which might involve children. Mal can be found on Instagram under @igobymal, where she has 3K followers. Mal is also active on TikTok and Twitter under @igobymal_. Mal goes by she/her/they pronouns.
Yoly Rojas
Yoly, age 34, issued the ultimatum to her partner Mal on Netflix’s The Ultimatum: Queer Love. Yoly wants to be chosen by Mal for a “once-in-a-lifetime commitment” after the women met during Chicago pride and transformed from friends to lovers. Yoly is ready for Mal to propose to her, though she has received resistance from her partner. Yoly can be found on Instagram under @yolyredrum, where she currently has around 1.6K followers. Yoly describes herself as “Latina, wardrobe curator, sunset chaser,” and she’s available for bookings. Yoly goes by she/her pronouns.
Mildred Bustillo
Mildred Bustillo, age 33, issued the ultimatum to her partner Tiff Der. Mildred thinks she “deserves to be happy,” and is seeking a ring and commitment from her partner after Tiff slid into her DMs one fateful day. The couple now cares for Mildred’s teenage son together after her difficult divorce. Mildred can be found on Instagram under @mildredbustillo_, where she has 1.6K followers at the moment. She describes herself as “Mother first. Bad b*tch immediately after.” Mildred goes by she/her pronouns.
Tiff Der
Tiff, age 32, received the ultimatum from their partner Mildred. While Mildred is ready for the next step, Tiff has serious reservations about tying the knot due to the couple’s communication issues and fighting. Tiff can be found on Instagram under @tiff.der, where they currently have around 4.5K followers. The San Diego-based vegan is the cohost of Fweebs podcast. Tiff goes by they/them pronouns.
Sam & Aussie
The final couple on The Ultimatum: Queer Love is Sam and Aussie. Neither Sam, who goes by she/her, nor Aussie, who goes by the pronoun “Aussie,” are listed as having Instagram accounts. Sam, age 31, issued the ultimatum to Aussie, age 42, because she’s ready for the ultimate connection. However, Aussie would prefer to spend more time living together before making such a major commitment. The couple first met during the pandemic in an online social group for the LGBTQ+ community.
