Alyssa Ellman, notorious for her portrayal as the Season 14 villain on Married at First Sight, has been making waves since her time on the show. Despite facing backlash for her treatment of her husband, Chris Collette, Alyssa has moved forward with her life, embracing new opportunities and passions.
From the onset of the season, Alyssa’s rocky relationship with Chris drew the attention of viewers, with her blunt honesty and lack of interest in the marriage becoming evident early on. Despite Chris’s efforts to make the marriage work, Alyssa’s disengagement ultimately led to their swift divorce after just two weeks.
Following her stint on Married at First Sight, Alyssa retreated from the public eye due to negative comments on social media. However, despite the criticism, she has continued to live her life to the fullest, finding solace in her home state of Texas.
Maintaining friendships with fellow castmate Noi Phomassak, Alyssa has been actively involved in outdoor activities and social gatherings. From horseback riding to fishing and ATVing, she has embraced the Texan lifestyle with enthusiasm.
In terms of her romantic life, Alyssa briefly entertained a connection with fellow alum Ryan Ignasiak, as showcased on the MAFS: Where Are They Now Special. However, the relationship did not progress, and Alyssa has since focused on her personal growth and passions.
Notably, Alyssa has channeled her energy into animal rescue and advocacy. With a deep love for animals, she has dedicated herself to rescuing, fostering, and advocating for their welfare. Her beloved pitbull, Penelope, whom she rescued over a decade ago, holds a special place in her heart, inspiring her to become an advocate for animal rescue.
Celebrating Penelope’s rescue birthday, Alyssa expressed her love and gratitude for her loyal companion, emphasizing the joy and fulfillment that animals bring to her life.
Despite her portrayal as a villain on Married at First Sight, Alyssa Ellman’s journey post-show reflects resilience, compassion, and a commitment to making a positive impact in the world around her.
