Aubrey Ares On Amazing Race Season 34

Aubrey Ares and her boyfriend David Hernandez almost didn’t make it to the cast of The Amazing Race season 34. They received their last-minute notice it happened just two hours before they were on their way to Europe to compete for the grand prize of $1 million.

Aubrey and David were alternates for Amazing Race. They received an IG message from the producer of the show, appeared on a casting call, and didn’t make it to the final cut of the show. David told US Weekly, “We went through so much work. We went through so many auditions. It was very intense”.

Then, Aubrey chimed in, “And nerve-wracking because you’re literally sitting in front of all these CBS producers … but come to find out, we actually didn’t make the final cast, but they asked us if we would like to be alternates.”

According to David, Aubrey lost her interest to participate as an alternate. She told, “No, I don’t want anything to do with it anymore. We didn’t make it. It’s over.” They got a call when they were on their way out of town while in traffic. They hadn’t prepared as they were sure they won’t be racing so in just a matter of a few hours they had to travel to Munich, Germany so they make their stop at Target to pick up last-minute things.

Aubrey said, “We didn’t have a watch. We didn’t have certain things because I started sending things back since we weren’t going on the show.” Then phone calls started flooding in one after another.

The couple believes alternate as an advantage “because we were automatically the underdogs.” Aubrey told the outlet, “We had to come in and kind of catch up throughout the entire process. So that was definitely one of our strategies through the show.”

David Hernandez And Aubrey Ares Relationship

David Hernandez and Aubrey Ares met each other when David signed up for dance class at Aubrey’s studio. It was six years ago.

On Valentine’s Day 2022, Aubrey took to her Instagram and wrote, “We don’t need one day out of the year to tell each other how much we LOVE each other… We have daily (hourly) reminders ❤️ (lol if you know us, you understand the accuracy) I’m grateful for our journey together! It keeps getting better & better! Happy Valentine’s day, @david_vader6.”

The pair can’t stop professing their love for each other. In August 2020, David dedicated a post to Aubrey writing, “I’ll stop loving you when Tom catches Jerry.” David recently proposed to Aubrey to marry him in early September 2022 in Central Park in New York City. He did it while Marry Me by Train was being covered by a singer.

The pair jointly made their engagement “IG official”. They captioned the engagement post, “FOREVER & EVER. I love you, @david_vader6! Shocked was an understatement!!!!”

Furthermore, this once-in-a-lifetime adventure has brought them even closer together. Aubrey shared that they were tested to points that they had never been tested before.

Aubrey explained: “We were under stress together. I have stress at my job. He has stress at his job, but we’ve never had to work through stressful times together. And us being three years into our relationship, we’re at that point in our relationship where it’s like, ‘OK, are we ready for the next step? Are we ready to get married and start a family together?’ … I think the race definitely grew us stronger. We came back to understand each other better. And I think more in love.”
