Reality TV shows feature a lot of couples.
They make up the bulk of the action that comes from these programs, on a typical basis.
Some of the relationships are just plain toxic, making us question why they even tried in the first place.
We’ve compiled a gallery of some of the most toxic reality TV relationships below:
Amber and Matt – Teen Mom OG
There’s a new drama every single day with these two. It’s tiring.
Sammi and Ronnie – Jersey Shore
These two were constantly fighting. Their relationship has been on and off like a light switch, but there’s word that the two of them are back together… AGAIN!
Spencer and Heidi – The Hills
Remember when Heidi was a great character on The Hills before Spencer Pratt came around? He turned her against her BFF and made it clear that she would abide by everything he said. They constantly bickered, but they’re still together.
Rachel and Brendan – Big Brother
It was love at first sight for these two, but things changed out of the house when Brendan sent pics of his nether regions to another chick. They’re now married, but we don’t know just how toxic they still are.
Kailyn and Javi – Teen Mom 2
These two just always seemed to be arguing about something, so it came as no surprise that they finally parted ways.
Dustin and Heather – The Real World
Dustin and Heather seemed like the perfect couple on The Real World, but things took a crazy turn when Dustin just couldn’t stop lying to Heather. They reunited shortly after the show concluded, but they’re apart right now.
Marcus and Lacy – Bachelor In Paradise
Marcus and Lacy seemed like the perfect couple, but that was far from the case and it came out that their relationship turned toxic shortly after the cameras stopped rolling. They are no longer a thing.
Pauly and Aubrey – Famously Single
You may be fooled on Instagram into thinking their relationship is great, but all they seem to do on Famously Single is argue.
Kourtney and Scott – Keeping Up With The Kardashians
Kourtney thought Scott was too immature, so she moved on to Justin Beiber.
Tori and Dean – True Tori
They need to keep people tuning into their reality TV shows, so they don’t have the smoothest of relationships. There’s also word that Dean has been chatting to his ex.
Camille and Kelsey – The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
These two seemed totally in love before their big reality TV appearance, but it became glaringly obvious that they weren’t both into the relationship and it was over pretty quickly when the cameras appeared.
Tamra and Simon – The Real Housewives of Orange County

We got to see just how toxic this relationship was over three seasons and it was horrible.
Jon and Kate – Jon and Kate Plus 8
These two were happy until they got money and fame. Then their relationship crumbled.
Christina and Tarek El Moussa
We have to include Christina and Tarek El Moussa on this list, after the two separated and Tarek fled the home with a gun, making Christina think he was going to kill himself. YIKES!
