Caroline "Caro" Viehweg and Raymond "Ray" Gantt are a Dating team on The Amazing Race 33.
Having just met on Love Island a few months prior, Caro & Ray set out to test their new relationship on the Race, finding that they had many issues to work out, particularly as Caro had a tendency to be quick to cast blame on Ray while herself not contributing to their efforts. When the Race was put on hiatus, they were unable to return as they had broken up during the suspension and Caro's work visa expired, rendering her unable to return to the United States due to travel restrictions.
