Fraser Olender
📍 Hampstead, London, England

The former modeling agent grumbled all season about Heather's management, felt threatened by Kaylee's arrival and then apologized. His drunken kisses with lead deckhand Jake became the season's sweetest storyline, and the two left for a Miami holiday together.
