The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On season 3 was released on Netflix on December 4. The coveted dating reality show premiered with its first five episodes, introducing the couples and showing them move in with their trial partners as part of the experiment.
Zaina came to the show with her original partner, J.R. While she wanted to settle down and marry, J.R. was reluctant and wanted time due to his painful history with his past relationships, which is why they came to test their relationship on the show.
Scotty came with Aria, and it was he who wanted an engagement, but Aria wasn't ready yet because she thought an engagement would impact her career aspirations.
When Scotty and Zaina got together, there was a natural spark between them. After only a few days of living together, Zaina admitted that Scotty had quickly grown on her. They discussed various aspects of their lives, including long-term goals, and found that their thoughts coincided.
