Can Boyfriend legally get money off my sale of the house?

Hi we moved to FL in Aug 2021. He gave me 20k to put down on the house. I put down the other 120k. He’s not on the title or the loan. Does he have the legal right to any proceeds from the sale?

Best to talk with an attorney, I cant give you legal advise. In the past, I had a client in similar situation and it was understood that the unmarried partner had no right to any proceeds. Ethically it would seem appropriate to reimburse the gifted monies being $20,000. Just one opinion.
