The lowdown
A golden-retriever-energy Aussie deckhand who fell for Margot on night one and played the long game. He got a kiss, a sundeck date and finally the friend zone, and finished the season praised by Captain Jason for his growth.

📍 Where are they now?
Harry and Bri split a few months after Season 3 but stayed friends. In August 2025 he went public with girlfriend Kristen Cornelsen, whom he met on a bus in Morocco, and the pair now run a 50-foot catamaran in the British Virgin Islands, with Harry as captain and Kristen as chef.
