The Shady Side Of Francesca Farago

May 2024 · 2 minute read

It seemed like all the men on Netflix's "Perfect Match" had one thing on their minds — Francesca Farago. The Vancouver native knows a thing or two about breaking hearts, especially when it came to her being a hot commodity on the show. The show centers around several single Netflix stars who must choose a partner to match up with and share a room with. After match-ups are decided each night, two remaining unselected singles are forced to leave the house if they are not chosen.

Farago matched up with her co-star and fellow Canadian Dom Gabriel, known for being featured on "The Mole." Though the two seemed to have a solid connection, things were shaken up when Farago's close friend Damian Powers joined the show mid-season. After winning a challenge alongside Gabriel, Farago selected Powers to join the cast and proceeded to match up with him instead of Gabriel. Left without a match, Gabriel broke down in tears over his former flame ditching him for Powers. 

Farago opened up to Newsweek about the switch up, admitting that her connection with Gabriel would have fizzled out regardless of Powers' arrival. "...I think, at the end of the day, there was something missing there in our relationship. I think whether it had [ended] when it ended, or a few days later, a few weeks later, it would have most likely ended," she revealed. Gabriel had plenty of reason to celebrate following the heartbreak, however, as he went on to win the show alongside his then-partner Georgia Hassarati.
