Demari broke the rule by kissing Valentina on Too Hot To Handle season 6 episode 4

Lana gave Valentina an hour to impress Demari, who was already frustrated that he and Bri hadn't broken any rules in the retreat. After meeting her, Demari claimed that Valentina was exactly his type, adding that "on paper," she was what he had always wanted.

It became clear to fans that the Too Hot to Handle cast member was more attracted to Valentina than Bri. However, he didn't want to blindside Bri by pursuing a new connection with someone else.

During his confessional interview, Demari said that it would be hard for him to "stay focused" since Valentina was everything he wanted. However, he admitted that Bri was on his mind, noting that it would be "a huge test" for him.

"It's gonna be hard for me to stay focused but I'm gonna try and we'll see how that goes. Valentina is literally everything that I on paper would want. I do have Bri in my mind, but this is gonna be a huge test for me," Demari said.

The new retreat guest, Valentina, knew Demari was previously interested in someone from the villa. However, she wasn't worried about that, as Demari implied he and Bri weren't serious about each other.

When Valentina suggested that they kiss, Demari agreed, and the kiss led them to lose $6000. Upon returning to the retreat, Valentina told the others about her and Demari's kiss, which left Bri feeling incredibly displeased. She went to confront Demari after seeing him and Valentina holding hands.

Bri was upset at her Too Hot to Handle co-star as he extended his date with Valentina instead of letting Bri out of the banishment quarters. Throughout his date, Bri was banished, waiting for Demari to choose her instead. After extending his date once, Demari chose to let her out of the banishment chambers.

The upcoming episodes might feature his conflicting emotions about the two women. Fans wondered if Demari would get back together with Bri or if he would continue pursuing the physical connection he shares with Valentina.
