Ethan’s bombshell arrival on Too Hot To Handle was a shock for the contestants who were already being put to the test on the Netflix dating show. After whisking Sophie away on a romantic date, Ethan exclusively spoke about being brutally rejected.  

10 singles who were immersed in hook-up culture were challenged to stay celibate in an effort to form meaningful and genuine connections. 

As things were seemingly going well for the couples including Sophie and Creed McKinnon, the show’s virtual assistant Lana decided to shake things up. 

During episode four, she put the couples to the test with the arrival of two newcomers, Ethan and Flavia Laos. 

While the group were shocked, they learned their new relationship would be at risk as the new arrivals had chosen their dates. 

As Seb Melrose was chosen by Flavia, Creed was visibly saddened to see Sophie get asked out by Ethan. 

During their date, Sophie made it clear Ethan was her exact type and as they had loads in common including being British. 

However, after forming a genuine connection with Creed she remained loyal to him and told Ethan they were happy. 

Sophie had even turned down temptation after Lana offered the newcomers a penalty-free kiss and rejected Ethan. 

In an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk, he admitted: “It’s tough to be turned down by anyone, I don’t get that often.”

The kiss would have the only opportunity for Sophie to break the rules without costing the group anything from their $200,000 (£163,548) cash prize. 

In a bid to make the contestants form genuine relationships, they would be fined for kissing, heavy petting, sex, or solo-self-gratification of any kind.

Despite this, Sophie had previously locked lips with Creed, which cost the group $6,000.

While Creed was relieved to learn Sophie had rejected Ethan, he couldn’t keep his loyalty when Flavia arrived at the villa. 

After a few admiring glances and flirty banter, it was clear Creed was enticed by her physical assets and decided to have a word with Sophie. 

She was blindsided and left heartbroken to learn he wanted to break things off with her and pursue and relationship with Flavia, despite their emotionally vulnerable conversation. 

After rejecting Ethan and being dumped by Creed, Sophie remained closed off from forming a connection with anyone else, which ultimately led to her elimination. 

Ethan then set his sights on Hawaiian-born Brittan Byrd, who was initially linked to James Pendergrass. 

When the cracks in their romance were revealed, Ethan made his moves and had her in his bed by the end of the day. 

He explained: “When I came in, I’ve seen Brittan pretty much straight away. I just can’t keep my eyes off her.”

However, they too struggled to connect on an emotional level and after she patched things with James, Ethan was also sent packing. 

Too Hot To Handle season 4 is available to stream on Netflix.
