Lexi Goldberg appeared in The Ultimatum: Queer Love season 1, and it's time for an update on the popular cast member. Lexi issued the ultimatum to her then-girlfriend Raelyn "Rae" Cheung-Sutton in The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On's first spinoff. Joining them on the show were four other queer couples: Mildred Woody and Tiff Der, Aussie Chao and Sam Marks, Vanessa Papa and Xander Boger, and Yoly Rojas and Mal Wright. The season aired on Netflix from late May 2023 to early June 2023, as all the episodes were released in a short window.
The Ultimatum: Queer Love season 1 turned out well for some of the couples on the show. However, some have split after the fact. Yoly and Mal left engaged, but by the time of the reunion, which was filmed in January 2023, they had broken up. Tiff and Mildred also left the experience engaged, but Tiff was the victim of domestic violence, which Mildred was arrested for. Vanessa and Xander parted ways and don't even follow each other on Instagram anymore. Aussie and Sam are the only couple from season 1 still together, and they have not gotten married yet.

Lexi & Rae's The Ultimatum Journey
It Was Rocky
Lexi, who was the youngest Queer Love cast member at just 25 years old, gave then 27-year-old Rae the ultimatum after four years together. The Netflix couple entered into trial marriages for the experiment. Lexi paired up with Mal, and Rae did the trial portion with Vanessa. While Rae and Vanessa were together, the pair hooked up in an incident which was labeled "Finger Gate." Lexi had obvious disdain for Vanessa, and called her out as being on the show for the wrong reasons.
Despite the drama that went down over Finger Gate, Lexi asked Rae to marry her during the finale, and Rae said yes. When the pair appeared at the reunion, they were still very much in love and planning their wedding.
However, Lexi and Rae broke up shortly after the reunion, citing broken trust, unresolved issues from filming, and a lack of compatibility.

Mal is still a close friend of Lexi's, and the pair have shared posts from outings together. Lexi also follows her fellow The Ultimatum: Queer Love cast mates Aussie, Yoly, and Xander.
