Alexis is from West Virginia and she starred on season six of Are You the One? On the show, she was in a tumultuous relationship with Keith Klebacher, but they were confirmed not to be a match after entering the truth booth during week six. Alexis’ final match at the end of the show was Anthony Martin, but they did not date after the show ended. Instead, Alexis started dating Keith when filming ended, but the romance was short-lived.
During the Are You The One? season six reunion, Alexis revealed that she was dating season five contestant, Michael Halpern. In Oct. 2019, she shared on social media that she was engaged to her boyfriend, Nate Lee. However, the engagement had seemingly ended before Alexis’ death, as photos of Nate had been removed from her Instagram page.
HollywoodLife has reached out to MTV for comment on this tragic story. Our thoughts are with Alexis’ family and loved ones during this difficult time.
