Fans of reality television are taking notice of the cast of Perfect Match season 2, and 33-year-old Kaz Bishop, a former firefighter, is one member who has caught their attention.

One of Netflix's most anticipated reality series, Perfect Match, is back for a second season. Boasting a diverse cast of contestants, the show helps each contestant bring their distinct personalities front and center.

Kaz, who previously won another dating reality show, Dated and Related, appeared with his twin brother Kieran Bishop, where they wingman each other to win a date. A fashion model and influencer by trade, appearing in various reality shows has helped him stand out with his captivating backstory and powerful presence.

Perfect Match is not Kaz's first dating show

Kaz Bishop has previously appeared in various reality TV dating shows, and his multifaceted personality has helped him gain a considerable following. Viewers are excited to find out more as they prepare for the upcoming season.

Widely known for his previous reality TV stints, Kaz is no stranger to the limelight that reality television brings with it. Funnily enough, Kaz and Keiran both appeared in another dating show, Celebs Go Dating, in 2021.

Kaz Bishop was a firefighter

Although he first gained fame through his appearance on Dated and Related, before appearing on the show, Kaz Bishop used to ply his trade as a firefighter. Currently based in London, England, Kaz often models with his twin brother, Keiran, and is represented by the London-based agency Mass Talent.

His journey on Dated and Related was marked by numerous memorable moments, including when the twins dated another set of twins on the show. This is the first time Kaz has appeared on a dating show without his brother, but his ability to connect with others makes him a standout contestant.

Kaz Bishop's Journey in Perfect Match

Kaz has spent the majority of Perfect Match season 2 paired up with one of the contestants, Micah Lussier. Although both have struggled to communicate, given the rough competitive setting that the show presents, they have been strong in compatibility challenges in each episode.

Always willing to talk to each other through various challenges, the same couldn't be reciprocated when it came to nuances of handling a romantic relationship. In the later episodes, though, Micah's insecurities proved to be too much for Kaz to handle as throughout the show, he has sought out other connections.

Kaz saw Micah stick with her despite her claiming that she was seeking something more stable than what she had with Kaz. When a new contestant in the form of Too Hot To Handle's Christine Obanor came in, Kaz had an instant chemistry with her.

Kaz stayed with Micah at first, but during a game of flipcup, Kaz kissed Holly Scarfone, which led to the bust-up with Micah. Kaz chose to match up with Christine afterward, thus moving on to a new relationship in Perfect Match season 2. Going into the finale, Kaz and Christine are still together, leaving fans guessing as to what may happen in the finale.

Tequila given by the crew clouded Kaz's judgment

Kaz Bishop has appeared on The Viall Files to discuss his experience on the dating show. The host, Nick Viall, asked Kaz about any regrets during the filming of the show, to which Kaz showed regret.

"I may have gone for the wrong person. I'll say that and that's it."

Kaz didn't specify who he was referring to and later claimed in the same show that contestants are given alcohol to loosen up. In the same show, Kaz Bishop also added that tequila shots given by the crew during filming might've led to arguments and that he could've handled some situations better.
