Perfect Match season 2 gave all celebrities from the Netflix reality TV universe to hunt for love the second time. One of the contestants who appeared this season was Alara Taneri, who is mostly known for her debut on Dated and Related season 1 in 2022. Despite finding a love match on the previous show, things couldn't work out between Taneri and her boyfriend, hence the two parted ways.

On Perfect Match, Alara finds an instant connection with the Too Hot to Handle season 3 star Stevan and decides to choose him throughout the show. Even after Dom shows interest in her, she and Stevan become one of the strongest couples in the villa.

As per the Tudum by Netflix Perfect Match season 2 cast introduction, 24-year-old Alara is described as someone who won't lower her standards to settle down. Entering the villa, she hoped to bring "good vibes" through her fun-loving energy, unintentionally attracting her new match.

"Alara’s been set on keeping her standards high for a chivalrous guy who opens doors and sweeps her off her feet. With her contagious laugh and endless good vibes, Alara is confident that she’ll attract a match in the villa — even if he’s already paired off with someone else," Netflix Tudum's description further states.

3 things to know about Perfect Match season 2 star Alara Taneri

1) She is a fashion designer based in London

The 24-year-old is linked to the Turkish-Cypriot heritage and is originally from the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. Alara is interested in fashion and has an Instagram account dedicated to her various fashion projects.

When she was on the Netflix dating show Dated and Related, Alara was pursuing a fashion degree from Herefordshire. With her newly found fame, Alara might transition into the fashion world from the Netflix reality TV universe. She is also active on TikTok, where she shares videos of building outfits from scratch using her sense of style and self-expression.


2) She dated a Perfect Match cast member's brother

The Perfect Match season 2 cast member became a fan favorite after her debut on Dated and Related. To viewers' surprise, she and Kaz's brother Kieran were attracted to one another and got into a relationship during their time on the show.

However, after the long-distance factor affected their established connection, the two love birds decided to part ways. At that time, Alara was young, too, so she wasn't looking for someone to settle down with too soon, especially because she was still a university student and lived three hours apart from Kieran.


3) She starred in Dated and Related with her brother

The Perfect Match star wasn't the only one who joined Dated and Related. Her brother, Ceylan Taneri, accompanied her in the first season. Like his sister, Ceylan is also a social media influencer known for his travel and fashion-related content on platforms such as Instagram and YouTube. The two siblings share a wholesome bond.


Whether Stevan and Alara work out in the end or not will be revealed in the Perfect Match season finale episode set to air on June 12, 2024. Stream season 2 exclusively on Netflix to find out who the winning couple is.
