These 'Challenge' Competitors Weren't Always 'Exes': Take A Fond Look Back At The Way They Were

In honor of Valentine's Day, see the former partners during more romantic times.

Many moons ago, this season's "Challenge" teams felt a little somethin' somethin' for each other, and those emotions manifested into either passionate hookups or meaningful relationships. While this batch of paired-off competitors have all gone their separate ways -- these guys and gals are bona fide "exes" now -- they used to be all cuddly and cute.

In honor of Valentine's Day, we're taking a look back at the erstwhile couples (who are still vying for the top prize) during their more playful and flirtatious days -- when their romances played out during previous "Challenge" installments, "Are You the One?" and "The Real World." From making out on the pool table (Wes and Theresa) or in the pantry (Jordan and Sarah) to becoming boyfriend and girlfriend officially (Jay and Jenna), these duos certainly had the look of love in their eyes. Move over, Aphrodite and Ares!

Take a look at the one-time amorous companions below, and be sure to catch a new episode of "Battle of the Exes 2" on Tuesday at 11/10c!
