Why Jawahir & Nick Deserved To Win Too Hot To Handle Season 4

While several couples developed a strong connection throughout Too Hot To Handle season 4, Jawahir Khalifa and Nick Kici’s win was well deserved.

Too Hot To Handle season 4 has concluded with one couple that ultimately impressed Lana, their co-stars, and viewers at home, and while Jawahir Khalifa and Nick Kici broke several rules, they arguably deserved to become the winners the most. When Jawahir, Nick, and the other Too Hot To Handle contestants first met, Jawahir was immediately interested in New Jersey’s Nigel Jones. Michigan native Nick, on the other hand, was drawn to Dutch model Jawahir from day one, while the rest of the Too Hot To Handle season 4 men were into Kayla Richart.

After several eliminations by fan-favorite host Lana and even more rule infractions committed by Jawahir and Nick, the couple made it to the end of Too Hot To Handle season 4 alongside Kayla and Scottish racecar driver Sebastian “Seb” Melrose. Although Too Hot To Handle‘s jackpot started at a hefty $200,000, the total amounted to just $89,000 by the time Jawahir, Nick, Kayla, and Seb’s co-stars sat down to vote on which duo should receive the prize. While Kayla and Seb entered the finale as girlfriend and boyfriend, it was Jawahir and Nick’s relationship that won them the title and money with a 6-1 vote. Kayla and Seb came a long way, but Jawahir and Nick were the rightful winners of Too Hot To Handle season 4.

Jawahir & Nick Grew The Most Throughout Too Hot To Handle

Jawahir and Nick were an unlikely pair when they were introduced on Too Hot To Handle season 4, especially as they appeared to share more differences than similarities. While the 22-year-old Netherlands native Jawahir’s fatal flaws were that she relied on her looks and was only well-versed in flings, Nick had been in almost a dozen relationships prior to Too Hot To Handle. As time went on, Jawahir and Nick didn’t only experience tremendous growth together but as individuals. Although they broke several rules throughout Too Hot To Handle season 4 and cost the group a large sum of money, Jawahir learned how to be honest and openly communicate her feelings, while Nick grew to trust Jawahir and was unafraid to be vulnerable. In the end, Jawahir and Nick left Too Hot To Handle as two people who clearly took Lana’s retreat to heart.

Jawahir & Nick Remained Loyal On Too Hot To Handle

Although Australian “bad boy” Creed McKinnon was immediately criticized online for how he blatantly led on Flavia Laos Urbina and Imogen Ewan, Jawahir and Nick’s relationship stayed strong despite the temptation that surrounded them. When Shawn Wells arrived and grew an attraction for Jawahir, she quickly found herself torn between Shawn, who she found physically attractive, and Nick, who she genuinely cared about. Although Jawahir spent a night with Shawn, she was clearly emotionally affected by her feelings for Nick and ultimately honored their connection. As for Nick, viewers know that he only had eyes for Jawahir throughout their time on Too Hot To Handle, and despite the other beautiful women around him, he never strayed toward someone else.

While other contestants like Brittan Byrd and James Pendergrass stood out on THTH season 4, Jawahir and Nick ultimately deserved to win and take home the final $89,000 prize. Although Jawahir originally had their sights set on other people, her emotional connection to Nick was evident from their first conversation and only continued to develop from there. Unfortunately, most Too Hot To Handle relationships fail to go the distance after the show, but in the case of new winners Jawahir and Nick, fans will have to keep an on their Instagram to see where the couple is now.
