Seb Revealed He's Living With A Too Hot To Handle Co-Star After The Show

Even reality show contestants who are told they’re hot can feel insecure. At least that’s what Too Hot To Handle Season 4 star Seb Melrose confessed recently about his feelings when he began on the Netflix reality show. Seb was worried he was actually not too hot to handle when he first hit the beach, despite the series’ name.

“When I first walked on to the beach, the first guy I saw was James [Pendergrass], and I was like, ‘Oh my God,’” he told Newsweek. “Because I’m this wee Scottish kid that has never really thought… you might be shocked by this, but I never had any expectation of myself before I went on the show.”

Despite Seb’s worries, he seems to have hit it off with the rest of the Too Hot To Handle Season 4 cast. Not only did he pair up with Kayla Richart in the first few episodes of the season, but he also told Newsweek that he found his current roommate through the show. He now lives in London with fellow Season 4 cast member Creed McKinnon.

“We're all so close now," Melrose said. "We all needed each other on that retreat. We were like a big, dysfunctional family!"

Here’s everything to know about Seb, who’s found his place in the Too Hot To Handle family.

In his professional life, Seb moves pretty fast... literally. He’s a racing driver and began his career in 2014.

Seb is also the co-founder of a natural supplement company called Reprimo.
