What Too Hot To Handle's Rhonda And Sharron's Relationship Is Like Today

Rhonda said about her "Too Hot to Handle" romance with Sharron, "After the show, we were going strong for a few months" (via Oprah Daily). However, a year after the show aired, Rhonda said they're not still together as a couple but still in each other's lives as friends (from Women's Health). And it seems like distance was a factor that made pursuing a romance difficult since Sharron lives in New Jersey and Rhonda lives in Atlanta.

Sharron explained within that first year after the show that "I was having family issues. My mom was sick. I ended up closing off again. Not intentionally, but I found myself distancing from her" (from Oprah Daily). They only actually saw each other via FaceTime after the show wrapped, even before the pandemic (from ET).

Even though the two may not still be going strong, the show's creative director sees what happened between them as a win, saying, "Have you seen a relationship like Sharron and Rhonda's on a reality show before? I have never seen that. The growth that those two go through together, the genuine emotion at the end of it, was heartbreakingly gorgeous" (via Oprah Daily).
