Harry Jowsey says he doesn't remember much of 'Perfect Match' season 2 because he was drinking constantly after breaking a 13-month sobriety

• Harry Jowsey admitted he doesn't remember much of filming "Perfect Match" season 2.
• He said on his podcast, "Boyfriend Material," that he was drunk 90% of the time.
• He said he wasn't in the right headspace to be on the show because he'd just broke a 13-month sobriety.

Harry Jowsey may have made some bad decisions on season two of "Perfect Match," but he says he doesn't remember making many of them.

The reality star, who's best known for building a career as a YouTuber, influencer, and podcaster after appearing on season one of the Netflix dating show "Too Hot to Handle" and recently appeared on season 32 of "Dancing With The Stars," caught the ire of "Perfect Match" fans after he abruptly dumped his first partner, Elys Hutchinson, for "Love Is Blind" star Jessica Vestal. Then, in episode nine, his relationship with Jessica begins to fall apart after he's accused of kissing another contestant off-camera.

Addressing his behavior on his podcast, "Boyfriend Material," Harry acknowledged he made many "dumb decisions" but was not in the right mindset to film the show.

"I just want to preface that it was a year ago. At that time, I just broke my 13-month sobriety. I was going through a bit of a breakup. I was going through a hard time," Harry said.

He added that alcohol was a factor in his behavior on the show, and said he didn't remember much of filming it because he was drunk.

"I was absolutely sideways 90% of the time," he said. "There's a lot of conversations and things that we all see that I'm seeing for the first time and I'm like, 'Why did I say that? What is going on?'"

"If you look at my eyes, I look very drunk. I look like I've got problems, and I did have a lot of problems," he continued.

Harry recalled that he would joke about drinking shots instead of water and said he brought alcohol into the vans that would take the cast to the couples challenge locations.

"There was no limits with the alcohol, so we just kept going, and I realized that maybe there's alcoholic tendencies inside of me that were coming out like every day," Harry said, adding that he "lived a hundred different lives" since the series was filmed and would have made different decisions now.

It's not uncommon for cast members on a reality TV show to have unlimited access to alcohol, though some series like "Love Island" and "Bachelor in Paradise" have instituted limits on how many drinks a cast member can have each day or each hour in recent seasons.

Harry said he turned to alcohol instead of talking to Elys after his date in episode three.

On the podcast, Harry addressed his argument with Elys after he decided to dump her for Jessica in episode three.

On the show, Harry avoids speaking to Elys for most of the night after his date with Jessica, then tells Elys their relationship is going nowhere.

Harry said on his podcast that he felt the relationship was "stagnant," but admitted he should have spoken to Elys immediately that night.

"Harry today would have just bit the bullet and had that confrontational conversation," he said. "Harry back then was so afraid of conflict and confrontation that I was like, what would be great is if I just go get drunk and then figure it out later."

Harry said that he was drunk during his conversation Elys, so he "didn't know what was going on" but felt he needed to "follow my heart" rather than string her along.

"I was also a little bit drunk, and I want to tell her how I felt, and quite honestly, I look like a bit of a tithead in that situation," he said.

Elys responded to the podcast episode by sharing a TikTok video with the caption, "Imagine thinking releasing a podcast would be a good idea."
