Watch: ‘Love on the Spectrum’ Stars Pari Kim and Tina Zhu Xi Caruso Confirm Breakup
Pari Kim and Tina Zhu Xi Caruso’s T-riffic romance has come to an end.
The Love on the Spectrum stars—who met during season three of the hit Netflix series—announced they have decided to part ways.
“A few people have been asking if me and Tina are still together,” Pari wrote on Instagram Stories April 24. “I just wanted to be honest and let you all know that we are just friends now, two trains on different tracks, but I wish her the best and a bright, T-riffic future!”
Pari and Tina hit it off during a blind date on the third season of the hit reality show, where Pari shared her dream of finding a “T-Princess,” in reference to her love for the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority, commonly referred to as the “T.”
And reflecting on their time together, Pari used a fitting analogy to explain how the duo naturally grew in different directions.
“Trains come and go to all different destinations,” Pari captioned an April 24 Instagram post featuring a photo of blue and purple trains. “Some may come into each other’s routes and stations then diverge and go their own separate ways just like MBTA Commuter Rail and Amtrak. And that is okay.”
“Both are still valid,” she added. “Both serve their own purposes. Both will reach the light at the end of the tunnel.”

Meanwhile, Tina shared that though the pair will not be moving forward with their romantic relationship, there’s no bad blood.
“It’s mutual,” Tina wrote on Instagram April 24 alongside a snap of the two dressed as Wicked’s Glinda and Elphaba. “@purpleprincesspari and I have spit up. We’re just friends now.”
“We are like Glinda and Elphaba in the way we advocate for what we believe in,” the reality TV star continued. “I’m the Elphaba and I can’t wait to show the world how I advocate. Pari will continue to advocate like Glinda. I hope we can still advocate as friends for things we believe in like public transportation and disability advocacy.”
But Pari and Tina aren’t the only Love on the Spectrum stars calling it quits. Keep reading for a relationship status check on more couples from the hit Netflix show…
