The men of Kings Court have officially chosen their queens.
On the Season 1 finale, which aired Sept. 14, supermodel Tyson Beckford, NBA All-Star Carlos Boozer, and WWE legend Thaddeus “Titus O’Neil” Bullard each had the opportunity to treat one of the single queens to a final date before deciding who, if anybody, they wanted to leave the castle with and who to send home solo.
Guided by co-hosts Holly Robinson Peete and Rodney Peete throughout the season, the men had already whittled down the dating pool to just five women: Arielle, Felisha, Janaye, Jennifer, and Khaliah.
So, who did Tyson, Carlos, and Thaddeus end up with, and are they still dating today? Read on to find out.
Carlos Boozer and Janaye are “thriving” together after Kings Court
After taking Janaye on a helicopter ride, Carlos was the first of the men to reveal his decision on coronation night. He began by reflecting on their journey and expressing some potential concerns, before giving Janaye the happy news.
“I’ve been contemplating about our relationship and, like, where I’m at in my life, and I really wanna be with you,” he told the Tampa-based entrepreneur. “I don’t want to be with nobody else. I really can’t see my life without you. I’ve chosen to commit myself to you and be true to you and only you, to honor you in rooms that you’re not in, to be your man and to grow with you, to love you, to support you.”
That’s when Carlos pulled out a ring box and added, “The way I wanna do that is by giving you a promise ring. Will you be my queen?”

Referring to Carlos as “the most incredible person” she’s ever met, Janaye happily accepted his offer.
Even still, the retired basketballer had one more surprise tucked away inside his suit jacket: two tickets to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, where he planned to immediately take Janaye on a romantic, weeklong getaway.
A post-finale update revealed, “Carlos and Janaye are deeper in love and thriving. Cabo was the vacation of a lifetime, and then Janaye moved to Miami.”
Tyson Beckford ended Kings Court single
Heading into coronation night, Tyson was torn between Felisha and Jennifer — but still had some lingering reservations about them. Ultimately, Tyson broke up with both women during a pair of what he described as “hard conversations.”

He broke the news to Felisha first, telling the Houston business analyst, “From day one, you were definitely very important to me. I just feel like there were times that I think I could’ve been closer and I wanted to be closer to you. There was always something in the way of us. … So, where I’ve landed in this decision: You are not my queen.”
After expressing her disappointment and saying her goodbyes, Felisha opened up to a producer. “It’s easy to pin your hopes to a guy like Tyson. He’s funny, adventurous, successful, and oh-so-good-looking,” she said. “But unfortunately, he’s a child, interested in childish things, and I’m looking for a king. I do think I dodged a bullet. I don’t wanna make these mistakes again. I wish him the best, but right now, I’m wishing better for me.”

Next, Tyson explained to Jennifer, “I want you to be my queen, but I cannot make that decision right now. You know, I don’t wanna rush things … You are not my queen. I wish you all the best. Your king is out there, and you will find him.”
Afterward, Jennifer, a Miami-based architect, remarked, “I really was starting to believe in the fairy tale and that there was a possibility in kind of turning this bad-boy player into a one-woman man. I really did hope for that, so I’m sad that Tyson didn’t pick me as his queen.”
Why Tyson Beckford didn’t pick Felisha or Jennifer
Tyson, for his part, unpacked both decisions with a producer, explaining, “I obviously did have feelings for both Felisha and Jennifer, and I didn’t wanna hurt either one of them. But my biggest problem is trust issues. That’s the reason why I wanted to pick myself, because I know who I was. I didn’t know who they were fully. I’ll definitely find my queen, but it has to be at my pace.”
According to Tyson’s end card, he “continues to search for his perfect match but currently walks the runway of love alone.”
Thaddeus Bullard picked Khaliah over Arielle and they’re still together after Kings Court
Finally, Thaddeus made “by far, one of the toughest decisions” oh his life, ulatimately choosing to leave Kings Court with Khaliah, instead of Arielle.
“Having the opportunity to love a woman again has been difficult because I had this wall up. You broke a lot of those walls down,” Thaddeus told Arielle, as a tear streamed down his cheek. “As difficult as this is for me to say: Arielle, you are not my queen. There are good men out there, and you’re a great f–kin’ woman. I’m f–kin’ rootin’ for ya. I really am.”
Post-split, Arielle admitted that her feelings were “a bit hurt” and shared that she was going to “take some time” to process the relationship ending.
“I am still very much a hopeless romantic, and I still wanna be married,” the Houston-area physical therapy doctor added. “I still think that love is out there for me and is in the cards for me, especially because I know that I’ll be an amazing wife to someone who is my king.”
Sitting down with Khaliah next, Thaddeus gushed, “I’ve been impressed by you. You tolerated my crazy. I’ve enjoyed this journey with you… Obviously, the journey doesn’t end the same for everybody here.”
Inserting a quick fake-out, he continued, “Unfortunately, you’re gonna be stuck with me for a little bit. Khaliah, will you be my queen?”
After the Atlanta pediatrician answered, “Yes, hands down, no question,” Thaddeus added, “I look forward to continuing to get on your nerves, embarrassing you. We don’t know where this is gonna end, but I do believe that we have a hell of a beginning, queen.”
After filming wrapped, “Thaddeus and Khaliah have begun their fairytale romance. They have met each other’s families and continue to walk in love.”
