It’s just what the doctor ordered for Jessica Barrett.
The star of Love Is Blind shared that she began seeing someone else from the show after breaking up with her fiancé, Chris Fusco. They split because he admitted he wasn’t attracted to her due to her not participating in pilates or CrossFit.
During the recent reunion episode released on Netflix on March 11th, Jess revealed she is now dating Haramol Gill, who is also a doctor.
Haramol and I became very close while we were in the pods,” she said. “After everything fell apart, Haramol was there for me as a friend—or so I believed.
But as Haramol, 36, joked, he “was shooting shots,” even if Jess, 39, was oblivious.
I immediately thought he was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and sweet,” she remembered. “It took a while before we finally had a chance to talk alone. I was very casual – I showed up in sweatpants, just wanting to relax and have a drink with him.
The emergency room doctor quickly made his feelings clear. As Jess explained, he told her, “I know exactly who I am and what I want, and that’s you.”
However, there’s a reason Haramol didn’t propose to her in the pods.
He recalled feeling deeply troubled by his past actions, specifically how harshly he’d judged himself for what he considered emotional manipulation. He described leading someone on romantically – what he called ‘experimenting’ with their feelings – without intending to pursue a relationship as morally wrong. He firmly believes it’s unfair to awaken someone’s affections without genuine intent.
Although their connection with Jess felt instant and magical, he didn’t propose because he wanted to be absolutely sure about such a big step.
I realized I couldn’t commit based on feelings alone—I was committing to your whole life, your family, everything. I ended things because I was too afraid to fully embrace that commitment, and I regret putting you through the uncertainty and pain that caused. It’s important to learn from regrets, though, because if you get another chance, you need to take it seriously.
Now that Jess and Haramol are a couple, Haramol shared that Jess deserves all the praise she receives. He added, “Jess brings light and joy to any space she enters.”

Despite falling in love without meeting in person, Emma and Mike ultimately couldn’t reconcile their different views on having children—Emma was unsure, while Mike definitely wanted them—and decided not to get married.
Mike told Emma, “I love you.” But he wasn’t ready to commit to marriage just yet. He explained that he really wanted to have children and needed to be sure they both wanted the same thing – a family together. He didn’t want to rush into a decision and then have their feelings change later.
While Emma believes they might have a future family together, Mike wants her to be completely sure before they move forward.
He told her that before they get married, he needs to be certain they both want to have children together. He emphasized that this wasn’t something he was willing to compromise on, and while he understood she had her own reasons, he couldn’t commit without that shared desire. He apologized for needing to be so clear about it.
Amber, a mother to Emma, was anxious about whether Jordan would actually go through with the wedding when the moment arrived.
Thankfully, her worries disappeared when both of them agreed, which moved almost everyone to tears – even her daughter.
Amber was surprised by the outcome, she confessed just before the wedding reception. She thought he wasn’t prepared to commit, and she definitely hadn’t anticipated him being so ready for marriage.
Right before their nuptials, Brittany revealed she was “shocked” when Devonta called it all off.
She shared with the camera that today was meant to be her wedding day, but it didn’t happen. She added that she feels like none of her hopes and dreams are coming true right now.
Although things were good with her former partner, Devonta realized she couldn’t commit to marriage because she wasn’t sure she could fully meet his emotional needs. She explained that this uncertainty was the reason she couldn’t go through with the wedding, as she believes you need to be completely confident in your ability to love someone the way they deserve before getting married.
Brittany seemed optimistic, saying they’ll remain a couple, but Devonta has made it clear he doesn’t share that view.
Honestly, when she asked, I just couldn’t give her the answer she wanted. I’m not psychic! I had my own reservations, even though I really cared for her, and I truly didn’t know what was going to happen. She was absolutely ready to get married, and that made it even harder, because deep down, I still had these nagging doubts swirling around in my head.
The soccer coach, who gained attention from viewers this season, said his wedding day felt like a high-stakes penalty shootout, but he was optimistic about a successful outcome.
Despite the question, Ashley stated she wasn’t aiming for marriage and immediately responded when asked if she would say ‘I do’.
“I already know what you’re thinking,” Ashley said to him. “You’re not picking me, and I’m not picking you either.” She then explained why their relationship wasn’t working, even questioning his honesty, which Alex immediately responded to.
He admitted he partially disagreed with her assessment of his character. He explained that the questions about his past felt like a trap, designed to find mistakes rather than to genuinely get to know him.
When asked if he had any regrets, he stated, “Not at all. I’m very happy with who I am and proud of what I’ve accomplished.”
Christine and Vic immediately connected and were excited about building a future together.
During his wedding vows, he admitted he never expected to find love through such an unusual experience. Turning to his bride, Christine, he shared that they instantly felt a connection when they first spoke while in the pods, and that she truly knew him better than anyone else.
Ultimately, Anton’s lifestyle and money problems weren’t a good fit for what Ali wanted in a partner.
It absolutely broke my heart watching the ceremony, but honestly, I completely understood her. She stood there, looking devastated, and just told him, ‘I can’t do this.’ She explained that the man she connected with while they were only talking in the pods – the one she thought she knew – was so different from the person she’d actually gotten to know once they met in the real world. It was painful to watch, but she was being honest with herself and with him, and I respect her for that.
So, she listened to her intuition.
She explained to the cameras that the experience didn’t meet her expectations and didn’t feel genuine. She also felt he hadn’t been completely honest about his life.
Anton wasn’t sure what went wrong – whether it was a matter of appearances, the overall feeling between them, or simply how they lived their lives. However, he insisted he always had her best interests at heart and genuinely cared for her.
Despite finding common ground through shared experiences with family members who have Type 1 diabetes, Megan and her fiancé had very different approaches to life – he favored simplicity, while she enjoyed luxury. This ultimately led Megan to end their engagement, as revealed in the season nine finale.
“We’re just passing each other without really connecting, like strangers,” the entrepreneur explained. But Jordan didn’t understand the comparison, saying, “I don’t get it.”
After Megan mentioned Jordan’s fussy eating and difficult travel commitments as a father, he responded by questioning why she had chosen him in the pods in the first place.
She admitted she’d hoped their differences would work out, but ultimately had doubts. “Looking back, I realize I never wanted to get married and risk putting either of us through that,” she said, and both of them started to cry.
Jordan admitted his biggest regret was letting his son, Luca, meet her. He explained in a private interview that he believes she doesn’t love him for who he is, and realizing that is enough for him to move on.
Megan shared that the difficult experience made her doubt her abilities as a mother, wondering if she was too focused on her own needs.
At their wedding, both Kalybriah and Edmond admitted they were deeply in love, but Kalybriah ultimately rejected his proposal, offering her apologies.
She told the realtor she needed someone who was fully committed, and she didn’t feel she could offer that right now. However, she quickly added that saying no didn’t mean she didn’t care for him.
Edmond was upset and started crying, but Kalybriah thanked him for handling the situation with dignity as she explained her difficult choice. When he asked if they might date in the future, Kalybriah reassured him that she wasn’t ruling it out completely.
“I am shocked,” he said in a confessional of her decision. “There was no bright side.”
Joe ended things with his partner before they could get married in season nine, breaking up with them after an emotional crisis while trying on his tuxedo.
Madison later shared with Glamour that Joe presented two distinct sides of himself. When the cameras weren’t rolling, he was comforting and affectionate, often physically close. But on camera, his behavior was completely different, and that contrast is noticeable in scenes like the pool party.
Honestly, it was a bit shocking to hear that Madison actually asked Joe if he was attracted to her! He admitted things got complicated for him during their vacation because of it. It just felt like a really awkward situation for everyone involved, and I was surprised he was so open about it.
She explained that she asked him what kind of women he usually dated, and he said he preferred ‘more petite women.’ Although she generally feels confident, his answer briefly made her feel insecure.
Joe explained that he was clumsily trying to describe a pattern he’d noticed in his past relationships, and didn’t intend to compare or judge anyone.
Nick broke up with Annie right before their wedding, telling her he felt upset that she always claimed to love him more than he loved her.
Despite Nick ending the relationship, the hairstylist didn’t accept it and pleaded with him to stay, saying, “Just stay with me and love me.”
“You can’t make one plus one equal three,” he said, prompting her to say, “Watch me.”
Nick finally told Annie he wasn’t willing to marry her because he was unhappy.
Dave and Lauren’s relationship struggled after they arrived in Honduras. While they discovered they had friends in common, that wasn’t the main issue. Dave was bothered by learning Lauren had previously been with someone they both knew, and he found it hard to move past that.
Plus, Dave hadn’t wanted to introduce Lauren to his friends or family. He hadn’t even told his dad about their engagement, and his sister, who would later cause a lot of problems, completely disapproved of the relationship.
Many viewers thought Monica and Joey were a perfect match and expected them to get married. Surprisingly, when the time came, Monica decided she wasn’t ready for marriage just yet.
She said, tears welling up, that she was completely sure of how she felt, but sensed they both still had a way to go. Joey wholeheartedly agreed.
He hugged her and reassured her, saying it was alright. He felt they clearly cared for each other deeply, but believed they both needed to focus on personal growth. He admitted he wasn’t ready for a relationship right now, and wasn’t sure when he would be.
Despite significant differences in their beliefs and values, Ben and Sara appeared to have found common ground by the time of their wedding. However, they eventually realized they weren’t compatible and decided to end their relationship.
Sara, who previously told me she didn’t see a future with Ben, explained to him, “Ben, I care about you deeply, but I’ve always envisioned a partner who shares my outlook on life. Because of that, I can’t continue this relationship. I’m truly sorry if that’s not what you wanted to hear.”
She explained that while she feels a strong connection and cares deeply for the other person, their differing core beliefs ultimately led her to make a difficult decision. She said her heart wanted one thing, but her mind knew it wouldn’t work.
Devin and Virginia appeared to be a compatible couple, looking forward to their future together after completing the relationship pods. However, their harmony was disrupted when they started discussing a prenuptial agreement.
Ultimately, more significant problems led Virginia to end her relationship with Devin and decide against spending her life with him.
After leaving the altar, she explained, through tears, that she often felt the need to shield Devin throughout their relationship. She wasn’t sure if this was due to her upbringing, but protecting him was always a priority. This meant avoiding certain sensitive subjects, like politics, and respecting his boundaries even if it meant they didn’t fully explore all aspects of their connection. Ultimately, they didn’t reach a deeper level of understanding in those areas.
In the end, Daniel and Taylor were the happy couple who committed to a lifetime of love, promising to stay together long after the holidays were over.
Despite a rocky start – Taylor believed Daniel had been checking her Instagram profile before the show – they were able to move past the issue and connect.
After sharing heartfelt vows, the couple had a lovely wedding and a joyful reception.
“We did it!” Daniel exclaimed, sitting with Taylor after their wedding. Taylor added, “We’re so excited to begin this next part of our lives together.”
The art dealer, now well-known in his field, proposed to the author of Keeping Well after a complicated relationship involving Hannah Jiles. However, they soon realized they were better suited as friends and called off their brief engagement.
Brittany and Leo realized they didn’t have a romantic connection, as Brittany explained to People magazine. They discussed the possibility of making things work at the start of their time together, but as things progressed, they both felt a lack of chemistry. Because they communicate well, the realization wasn’t difficult or dramatic – it was a respectful and clear understanding between them.
Shortly after appearing on a Netflix dating show, Brittany began dating musician Mod Sun in November 2024. However, she announced their breakup in July 2025.
Monica and Stephen split up after she discovered explicit text messages between her fiancé and another woman while they were still on vacation in Mexico. Stephen initially apologized on camera, but later posted a message on social media after the episode aired.
In an October 2024 post on Instagram Stories, he expressed regret if his presence bothered anyone, apologizing for any negativity and even wishing those affected hadn’t had to start their day. Despite this, he affirmed his continued affection for everyone.
After leaving the pods, Hannah and Nick definitely experienced their share of challenges and arguments. Hannah famously stated, “I think you’re treated as an equal when you start acting like one.”
Everything fell apart when Hannah realized she didn’t want to marry Nick. He described the split as incredibly painful, calling it one of the worst moments of his life.
Since then, Hannah has admitted the show forced her to do some self-introspection.
You know, through some recent self-reflection, I’ve realized I have areas where I can definitely improve. I’ve always been a very direct person – I just say things as I see them. But I’m starting to understand that how you say something is just as important as what you say. Delivery really is everything! It’s a big lesson I’m working on, learning to soften my approach without losing my authenticity.
Taylor and Garrett immediately connected, feeling like a perfect match – almost as if it was fate. They did experience a small bump in the road when Taylor discovered Garrett had responded to a message from a former partner, but he quickly clarified his engagement and ended the conversation. After that, their relationship unfolded beautifully, becoming a memorable part of the Love Is Blind story.
The pair were still married at the Love Is Blind reunion in October 2024.
You won’t believe this, but despite being a strong couple and early favorites to succeed, Ramses called off his wedding to Marissa because he had doubts.
After a heartfelt conversation, Marissa excitedly told her fiancé, “I see a wonderful future with you, and I want to marry you.” He replied, simply, “I know falling in love always carries a risk, and I accept that.”
He acknowledged that their disagreements—like their differing views on the military—could be too significant to overcome. He explained that, having observed marriages closely, he believes love isn’t always enough for a successful relationship. Other factors need to be compatible as well.
Marissa tried to stay strong, but once she realized the relationship was truly over, she started crying. She told him, “I wish you hadn’t come here knowing things were ending.” She was hurt and confused, saying, “I thought we were on the same page, but you clearly don’t feel the same way.” She admitted, “This is awful, and I really wanted him to choose her.” She described the breakup as “the worst day of my life.”
Tyler and Ashley were popular with viewers as their romance developed smoothly. However, things became difficult when Tyler revealed he had three children, a revelation Ashley referred to unkindly. The extent of Tyler’s relationship with those children is a topic of online discussion, but he hasn’t spoken about it publicly.
By the October 2024 reunion show, Ashley and Tyler had resolved their differences, reconnected, and eventually married.
“These past two months have been incredible and have completely changed our lives,” Tyler shared, sitting with Ashley after their wedding. “And now, we get to enjoy the rest of our lives as husband and wife.”
However, Ashley later shared that the pair had called it quits following over one year of marriage.
In a statement released in January 2025, she announced that she and Tyler have separated and are divorcing. She explained that after a lot of thought, they realized they were growing apart and couldn’t continue their marriage, despite hoping they could resolve their differences.
Alex and Tim appeared to resolve their big argument while they were in Mexico, and their relationship seemed stronger than before when they returned to Washington, D.C. Things got even better when Tim had a heartfelt conversation with Alex’s father, which suggested a promising future for them.
After Alex met Tim’s family, they had another fight, and Tim broke off their engagement, telling Alex he never wanted to see her again. Since then, both Alex and Tim have publicly shared their sides of the story, with Alex clarifying that the breakup wasn’t a joint decision.
Chelsea and Jimmy had a rocky start to the season with a few arguments, but they seemed to resolve their differences on a fun date at an amusement park just before their wedding.
Jimmy ended his engagement with Chelsea, leaving her shocked and in tears, as he was ready to move on from their turbulent relationship.
Jimmy confessed to Chelsea during their date, “I’m deeply in love with you and really want a relationship, but I don’t see marriage in our future. It’s just not something I can commit to.”
Let me tell you, things have been really tough lately. It feels like a lot of unresolved issues have all come to a head at once – honestly, it’s been more like five or six major problems, and they’ve really gotten to me. A big part of it was Chelsea letting slip a secret about my past – something I’d shared with her in confidence about a close friend. It’s been hard, to say the least, and we’re trying to narrow it all down to focus on the core issue.
After a final, emotional argument about their past relationships, Chelsea broke down in tears and left, saying, “I really thought we had a chance.”
The pair were both single during the March 2024 reunion.
Clay was reluctant to marry because of his father’s past infidelity, but AD comforted him, assuring him they could overcome any challenges together, and things seemed good between them.
However, when it came time to actually get married, Clay surprised AD by saying he wasn’t ready. He explained that it wouldn’t be responsible of him to go through with the wedding when he wasn’t prepared.
Cue the shock.
He told AD he would do the necessary work to figure things out, and they would face it together. He emphasized that he wasn’t ready for marriage, regardless of what others might think, and that AD deserved someone who was. He explained he wouldn’t commit until he could give her his all, and he couldn’t give her that right now.
The discovery caused AD to break down in tears, angrily stating the relationship had been a complete waste of her time.
Clay explained that both financial and emotional connections were major factors in his decision to leave. He confessed, “I had to ask myself if I was still a husband, and the answer was no. I also realized I wasn’t truly in love anymore.”
At the reunion, Clay admitted he regretted how things went with AD and hoped they could try dating again, but AD didn’t reveal whether she’d be open to the idea.
AD admitted she went on a few dates with her costar, Matthew Duliba, after filming finished, but they are no longer dating.
She announced in May 2025 she’s expecting her first baby with fiancé Ollie Sutherland.
Amy and Johnny were the only couple from season six to get married, and their celebration was beautiful. They also blended their families together wonderfully – Amy’s father even told Johnny’s sister he now feels like he has several daughters.
As for Johnny, he too declared at his reception that his father-in-law was his “new dad.”
They are still married.
Brittany and Kenneth’s relationship began passionately, but it didn’t last after they faced the challenges of everyday life.
Brittany explained to Life & Style that things changed after they left the pods and returned to Charlotte. She felt they had a very strong connection while isolated, but that passion faded once they were back in the real world.
Brittany and her former fiancé have stayed friends. She explained at their recent meeting that even though their romantic relationship ended, they share a connection that will last forever.
Laura and Jeramey’s engagement ended abruptly when Laura discovered Jeramey had spent the night with a fellow castmate, Sarah Ann Bick. Following a heated argument, Laura broke up with him.
But instead of that, he went off to ride jet skis with Sarah Ann.
You won’t believe what came out at the reunion last month! Jeramey shared that he and Sarah Ann actually started dating right after we finished filming – it’s been on and off for about a year, but sadly, they’ve since gone their separate ways. It’s always a little bittersweet hearing about showmances that don’t quite work out, isn’t it?
Laura is dating someone else, who she did not identify at the reunion.
Despite overcoming challenges like Izzy’s initial connection with Johnie Maraist and Stacy’s insistence on a certain standard of living (she didn’t want to use paper plates!), Stacy ultimately decided not to marry Izzy because he wasn’t truthful about his financial history.
Even though the wedding didn’t happen, Stacy still hoped to continue her relationship with Izzy, who was very upset.
“We’re at different spots,” he told her. “It really breaks my heart.”
Stacy appreciated Izzy helping her become more open with her feelings, but she wasn’t sure about a long-term future together. She said she needed to be completely certain before committing to a lifetime with someone, and she wasn’t there yet.
Izzy is now dating surgical assistant Shelby Webb.
The only bright spot of season five faded when Lydia revealed on an interview with former castmate AD Smith’s podcast, What’s the Reality, in June 2025 that she and Milton were divorcing after less than three years together.
She explained it wasn’t a single event, but rather a build-up of problems over time. When she told him she’d inform him when the divorce papers were finalized, he said he wouldn’t sign them without a non-disclosure agreement.
She explained that she decided to go public with the news because she needed to speak up. Keeping everything to herself had become too difficult, and she felt it was time to share what she’d been going through.
Lydia stated that while they were married, other women accused Milton, 26, of excessively flirting with them and paying for their drinks at bars. He denied these claims, but instead of addressing them, he questioned why Lydia would even consider the rumors to be true.
Throughout the season, Paul and Micah seemed like a surprising match, but things fell apart at their wedding. Micah, noticing Paul’s uncertainty, asked him to speak first, and he ultimately decided not to marry her.
“I feel awful,” Micah admitted. “If Paul had proposed, I would have accepted immediately.”
At the reunion, Paul apologized for a hurtful comment he’d made privately about Micah not seeming suited to be a mother.
Paul admitted he hadn’t been fair to her when he spoke earlier. He clarified that his real concern is that he doesn’t envision them being parents together.
I was so excited when I heard Paul and Micah seemed to be getting back together after filming! Sadly, it wasn’t meant to be. I learned from Paul that they officially split for good when he went to visit Micah in Arizona. It was really disappointing to hear, but at least he was honest about what happened.
On the show After the Altar, Paul shared that he was seeing someone new—a woman who loves to travel and appreciates his cooking. He later publicly confirmed their relationship on Instagram with Geneva Dunham, who works as an eyelash technician.
