“The Ultimatum: Marry or Move on” is a Netflix dating show where couples undergo an eight-week social experiment hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lackey. It is a show where random couples are paired with different partners to see if they should get married.
April Marie joined the first season of the Netflix dating show Ultimatum: Marry or Move On with her ex-boyfriend, Jake Cunningham. The former model would be a beloved contestant on the show because of her raw and genuine personality and desire to get married and start a family.
April Marie would have her fair share of drama and problems, but she managed to keep herself together when her long-time partner left her for someone he had met on the show, Rae Williams.
Although she and Jake Cunningham would be together for a long time, the couple seemed to be in different chapters, with April Marie wanting to settle down and start a family while the latter enjoying the opposite.
The reality show star would claim that she knew her former lover, Jake Cunningham, had lost interest in her. She would gain that conclusion because when it was April’s turn to live with him after Jake spent time with his trial wife, he was distant and hesitant to be intimate with her.
The pair would ultimately break it off after April Marie’s former boyfriend claimed he fell in love with the person he was matched to in the Ultimatum.
The Ultimatum Reunion Special And April Marie’s New Boyfriend
The reunion special of the Ultimatum would reveal a lot about how the contestants’ lives were after the eight-week social experiment. Contestants are on the verge of getting married, have broken up with partners, or ventured off with their lives. The Ultimatum reunion had a lot to unpack, but for April Marie, things would eventually improve for her.
With the former cast member’s intention to be single after her split with Jake Cunningham, the universe had something else in store for her instead. Unlike the reality star’s past relationship, whose ideals would not align with hers, April Marie would eventually find a man with the same beliefs and desire to have kids and start a family.
After her break up with her former boyfriend, she would eventually find herself in a relationship with Cody Cooper. Cody Cooper is a real estate broker and entrepreneur who owns many businesses. On his Instagram, you will see that the 30-year-old entrepreneur aims to do a men’s luxury underwear business called Woodcox.
