To tell you the truth, there’s this girl, Meg Fink – she’s someone I can’t get enough of. You know, the one who was entangled in that love triangle with Madison and Mason Horacek? Well, Alex confessed that he yearned for more of their dates to be caught on camera! Can you imagine how incredible it would have been to witness their story unfold on screen?

In an exclusive interview with Francesca Amiker from TopMob News, Alex shared that the conversations were incredibly engaging and enjoyable. He also mentioned that Meg has significantly shown him the importance of unwinding and enjoying oneself, as she is undeniably easy-going and entertaining.

Mentioning that he also enjoyed quality time with Monica Danús, who ultimately got engaged to contestant Joey Leveille within the pods, the real estate broker attributed his other relationships as a relief from the trial’s pressure.

He clarified that this experience significantly enhanced his understanding of staying genuine and enjoying the process. He emphasized that it’s not necessary for everything to be heavy and profound constantly.

By the close of episode six, Alex remained unengaged, choosing to sever ties with Madison rather than propose. Similarly, Meg left without a fiancé as well, having learned Mason shared an interest in Madison before her departure.

However, Alex emphasized to his fans that the tales they presented were far richer and deeper than just what was portrayed on the screen.

He stated that a great deal transpires off-camera, revealing his past relationships with extraordinary women. The captivating discussions we shared are barely represented, amounting to just a tiny fraction, about 0.01%,” he explained.

Fresh installments of the show “Love Is Blind” will be available on Netflix starting February 21st. For updates about more relationships from this series, continue reading…

In a twist of events, having been captivated by the enchanting author of “Keeping Well,” I found myself contemplating a proposal from the well-known art dealer, amidst the intricacies of his love triangle with Hannah Jiles. However, after a brief and passionate engagement, we mutually agreed that our bond would flourish best as cherished friends.

Previously, Brittany mentioned to People in an interview with Leo, “The connection didn’t materialize.” They had a discussion at the start about the potential for their relationship, but as time passed during the trip, it became evident that the connection wasn’t developing. Both of them felt it, and they parted ways amicably since they are skilled communicators. It was a smooth, respectful understanding between them, without complications.

Monica discovered shocking explicit texts exchanged between her partner, Stephen, and another woman, which ultimately led to their sudden breakup upon returning from a trip to Mexico. Following this revelation, Stephen expressed remorse in real-time during the eighth episode but later posted an apology on social media once the show was broadcasted.

He expressed his regret on Instagram Stories on October 8th, saying, “I hope I didn’t make anyone’s day worse by being here,” and if he did, “I apologize for disturbing your morning. I wish it hadn’t happened at all. But my feelings for you remain unchanged.

After stepping out of the pods, Hannah and Nick experienced a mix of good times and challenges, including frequent disagreements – to put it mildly. (And let’s recall that “Equal treatment comes with equal contribution.”)

Everything culminated when Hannah chose not to walk down the aisle with him, an experience that Nick described as “one of the most painful emotions I’ve ever felt.

Since then, Hannah has admitted the show forced her to do some self-introspection.

During the October edition of The Viall Files podcast, she shared her insights, stating “I’ve picked up quite a bit, and I’ve realized there are areas I need to improve.” She elaborated, for instance, admitting to being straightforward, yet acknowledging her communication style can be brusque. She further emphasized the importance of delivery, suggesting that it carries significant weight.

In a fortuitous union reminiscent of two stars aligned in the realm of scientific discovery, Taylor and Garrett found an immediate connection that felt preordained, culminating in their heartfelt promise to marry each other. However, they encountered a brief challenge when Taylor discovered Garrett had interacted with his former partner’s DM (Garrett claimed he had confirmed his engagement and ended the conversation). Nonetheless, this incident became a mere footnote in their love story, as depicted in the reality show “Love Is Blind.

The pair were still married at the Love Is Blind reunion in October 20224.

Indeed, you’ve understood correctly: Despite Marissa and Ramses being among the top contenders for a lasting relationship this season, Ramses decided to end their engagement due to some doubts he developed along the way.

In a heartfelt moment, Marissa expresses, “We’ve got an exciting journey ahead, and I long to make that journey with you as my husband.” To this, her fiancé replies, “I grasp the inherent risks of falling in love, I get it.

He pointed out the differences between them, particularly on military matters, might not be sufficient for their relationship to thrive. “Based on personal experience, other marriages, and advice from married couples,” he continued. “I firmly believe that love alone isn’t enough…I think there must be additional factors working harmoniously as well.

Regarding Marissa, despite her attempts to move past their views, when she realized it was all over, she couldn’t hold back her tears. “I wish you hadn’t come along,” she said to him. “How could I be so certain and you not? It’s awful, I wanted you to pick me.” Speaking of their separation, she lamented, “Today is the most miserable day of my life.

Tyler and Ashley grew popular among viewers as their casual romance developed. But a hiccup occurred when it was revealed that Tyler had three children, a fact that Ashley referred to as his “babies conceived through sperm donation.” (There’s debate online about the level of his parental involvement, which he hasn’t commented on publicly).

By October 2024’s reunion episode, Ashley and Tyler managed to overcome that detail and not only re-established their connection but, surprisingly, ended up getting married.

Tyler remarked beside Ashley following their wedding, “Two months ago, we embarked on a journey that transformed everything for us.” He continued, “Now, we’re privileged to share the remainder of our lives together.

Later on, Ashley revealed that they ended their marriage after more than a year together.

In a statement issued in January 2025, she revealed to People magazine that Tyler and herself have been apart for quite some time now. After careful consideration, we’ve decided to officially part ways, as keeping our marriage going has proven challenging. Despite my wishes for mutual understanding and openness, it’s apparent that our life goals no longer coincide, making it untenable for me to carry on with this union.

By the time they returned to Washington, D.C. from Mexico, it appeared as though Alex and Tim had resolved their significant dispute, as they seemed closer than ever before. Interestingly, Tim even had a heart-to-heart conversation with Alex’s father which seemed to strengthen their bond for the future.

After Alex spent time with Tim’s family, they had another disagreement which led to Tim ending their relationship by stating he didn’t wish to have any contact with Alex again. Following this breakup, both parties have spoken up to justify themselves, with Alex clarifying that the separation was not a mutual choice on their part.

Following several spats during the course of the season, Chelsea and Jimmy seemed to move past their disputes during a fun outing at an amusement park, which took place just prior to their wedding.

Yet, it was evident that Jimmy wanted their roller coaster relationship to conclude, as he ended his engagement with tearful Chelsea, who was taken aback by his choice.

Jimmy expressed his deep affection for Chelsea during their date, saying, “I’m deeply in love with you and I yearn for a relationship together.” He added, “I truly hope it works out between us, but I’m not ready to take that step towards marriage. I just can’t.

In my own words, I’d say, “He boiled it all down to a single point of contention, yet it encompassed five or six significant matters that deeply resonated and left me feeling vulnerable. One such matter was Chelsea disclosing Jimmy’s past relationship with his female friend.

Following another round of discussions regarding their past relationships, Chelsea departed emotionally, saying, “I had such high hopes for us.

The pair were both single during the March 2024 reunion.

As I grappled with my reservations about marriage, stemming from my personal experiences with my father’s infidelity, I found comfort in AD’s words. He confidently assured me that we could conquer any obstacle together, and our bond appeared robust and stable.

However, when it came time for him to make a lifelong commitment at the altar, Clay chose not to, explaining to AD that it wasn’t prudent for him to get married since he wasn’t prepared yet.

Cue the shock.

I’m all in for you, AD,” I declared, “and we’ll navigate this journey side by side. Regardless of what others might think or say, I recognize that I’m not yet prepared for marriage and you deserve nothing less than the best. If I can’t commit one hundred percent to you, I won’t take you down a path I’m not ready for. At this moment, I can’t give you a definitive ‘yes’, but let’s continue to grow together.

It became clear to AD, causing her to express, with tears, that the relationship had been an unfortunate squander of her “valuable time.

Regarding Clay, he disclosed that both financial and emotional factors significantly influenced his decision to leave. He questioned himself, “Am I married?” and found the answer to be no. When asked if he was deeply in love, he responded negatively as well.

At the gathering, Clay admitted he had erred by wanting to date AD, but she seemed reluctant about possibly reconciling in the future.

AD openly admitted that she had gone out on a few dates with her co-star, Matthew Duliba, following the conclusion of their filming, but they are not currently in a relationship.

The couple from season six who agreed to spend eternity together was Amy and Johnny. Not only did they mark their fresh start with a beautiful ceremony, but they also effortlessly combined their families, making it one big happy family. In fact, Amy’s father warmly expressed his feelings towards Johnny’s sister, saying 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 were still married during the reunion episode.

Initially, Brittany and Kenneth’s love was vibrant, but as they re-entered everyday life, their bond weakened and eventually faded away.

According to Brittany, things changed significantly when they returned to their hometown, Charlotte. She believes that the fervor and intensity they felt while living together in the pods lessened a bit upon their return home.

Despite their previous engagement coming to an end, the friendship between the two remains strong. At the reunion, Brittany shared, “The connection between us will continue for all time, as it’s not just about being in a relationship but something much deeper and everlasting.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d put it this way: In an unexpected turn of events, I found myself parting ways with my fiance, Jeramey, following a revelation that he had reignited old ties with Sarah Ann Bick during a night out. Our conversation turned heated, leading me to advise him firmly to move on.

But instead of that, he went off to ride jet skis with Sarah Ann. 

At the gathering in March 2024, Jeramey disclosed that he and Sarah Ann had an on-off relationship for about a year, starting soon after the show was filmed; however, they have since parted ways.

Laura is dating someone else, who she did not identify at the reunion.

In the fifth season, the couple faced several challenges, such as Izzy’s past relationship with Johnie Maraist and Stacy’s preference for fine dining over paper plates. However, Stacy decided against marriage because she found Izzy’s deception about his credit situation to be a significant concern.

Though Stacy didn’t utter “I do” at the altar, she nonetheless wished to continue the relationship with heartbroken Izzy.

“We’re at different spots,” he told her. “It really breaks my heart.”

Regarding Stacy, she expressed gratitude towards Izzy for helping her open up emotionally, yet there were lingering doubts about their long-term future. To commit to a lifetime with him, she asserted, required more than merely feeling fairly certain.

Izzy is now dating surgical assistant Shelby Webb.

Season five’s sole success story came from arguably its most unlikely pairing. 

Initially, things didn’t go smoothly for Lydia and Milton when it became known that Lydia had a past relationship with Uche Okoroha, her friend from the pod, prior to the start of the show. However, they were the only ones who managed to maintain their romantic connection throughout the experiment.

Lydia expressed her joy by saying that getting married was the fulfillment of a long-held dream for her. She felt incredibly happy and contented, stating that she had all she needed in this new union. It seemed to her as if she were back at home, feeling secure and protected.

As an advocate for well-informed choices, I can confidently say that after thoroughly analyzing all available information, I have come to the conclusion that this decision is the most appropriate one.

For this couple, opposites seemed drawn together throughout the entire season, that is until their wedding day approached. Noticing Paul’s uncertainty, Micah suggested he go first in expressing his intentions, and it turned out that Paul declined the proposal of marriage.

1) Micah expressed, “I’m in quite a mess, honestly.” If Paul had proposed, I definitely wouldn’t hesitate to accept and say yes.

OR

2) Micah admitted, “To be honest, I feel like everything’s fallen apart.” Had Paul asked me to marry him, I would have said ‘yes, I will’ without a doubt.

During the reunion, Paul expressed his regrets for his statement in a private conversation, where he admitted finding it difficult to perceive Micah as a mother.

Paul clarified, “What I said was unjustifiably harsh towards her. A more appropriate way to express my thoughts might be that I don’t see ourselves in a parental role.

After they filmed together, the pair attempted a brief reconciliation, but unfortunately, they couldn’t sustain their relationship. Later on, Paul clarified that they parted ways permanently during his visit to Micah in Arizona.

In the novel “After the Altar“, Paul disclosed that he had started seeing a new companion, who appreciated both travel and his culinary talents. Later on, he confirmed their relationship by posting on Instagram with lash technician Geneva Dunham.

Although Kwame’s mother declined to attend the wedding and some might find his discussions with Micah questionable, given their connection from the pods, Kwame and Chelsea were among the trio who exchanged vows in the final episode of season four.

At the gathering, Chelsea disclosed that she had recently met her husband’s mother. Meanwhile, Kwame tendered an apology to his wife and her relatives for his conduct, expressing that his conversations with Micah weren’t the most accurate portrayal of him.

The couple is living in Seattle with their beloved dog Rocky.

It’s often said that love can be blind, but sometimes it takes a bit of time—or finding oneself in a new relationship—to understand one has chosen incorrectly. This was the case with Zack, who initially got engaged to Irina Solomonova, but later ended their relationship during a trip to Mexico.

Following Bliss’ request for another opportunity, the duo bravely went against the odds (and even Bliss’ father’s expectations) and exchanged their vows at the altar. Incidentally, they didn’t opt out of their first dance, instead swaying to the rhythm of Lee Ann Womack’s “I Hope You Dance,” a song that connected them in the pods.

Following the broadcast of their final episode, Zack posted a picture of the couple on Instagram accompanied by the message, “A Lifetime of Happiness”.

In November 2023, the pair announced that they were anticipating their initial child, and later, in April 2024, they joyously welcomed their daughter named Galileo Terri Rayne Goytowski into their family.

It seems like no other “LIB” couple since Cameron Hamilton and Lauren Speed from the first season has felt quite as destined for each other!

On their special day, the eldest pair from the study – Tiffany being 36 and Brett at 37 – exchanged their vows despite an unexpected wardrobe issue with Brett’s trousers. His pants unfortunately didn’t fit well on the wedding day, but thanks to Lucia, the talented seamstress, all was quickly resolved! (Kudos to you, Lucia!)

Since filming wrapped, Tiffany and Brett moved to Portland and are still perfect! Phew!

After SK said “I don’t” at their wedding, he and Raven seemingly parted ways.

Yet, it turned out that once the cameras were turned off, the ex-lovers had rekindled their romance, as they were discovered to be back together during the reunion special of season three.

Approximately a month past, the pair disclosed their decision to part ways, citing “choosing separate paths” amid accusations of SK’s infidelity. In a jointly released statement on social media in November, SK and Raven stated, “Due to ongoing legal matters pertaining to these allegations, we are unable to share further information and kindly request your understanding and respect for our privacy during this challenging period. We appreciate your support throughout our relationship journey.

Spectators looked on with disappointment as Jackie decided to offer another opportunity to Josh Demas, the man she had formed a connection with in the pods, by arranging a meeting with him, ultimately terminating her engagement with Marshall.

During the gathering, Jackie clarified the sequence of events that had occurred previously. “I ended things with Marshall prior to meeting Josh in the coffee shop,” she explained. “It seems like I was unfaithful, but let me assure you, I am not a cheater.

Later on, Jackie admitted to the conclusion of her relationship with Marshall, acknowledging that she was responsible for her speech and conduct. She simply expressed that their destinies were not intertwined.

Regarding Jackie’s relationship with Josh, they were dating and cohabiting in the show “After the Altar.” However, Jackie revealed during a live Instagram session in September 2023 that they had split up.

Regarding Marshall, he shared with TopMob that following the conclusion of the show, he had a brief encounter with fellow competitor Kacia Clark. He elaborated, “We made an effort, but I decided it was best for me to keep my distance after that whole experience.

Following the altar unveiling, Marshall confessed that he’s been in a relationship with Dr. Chay Barnes for a year now, expressing his desire to spend an eternity with her. Their engagement took place in December 2023.

Nancy and Bartise experienced one of the stormiest weddings on the show “Love Is Blind”, not due to any issues with the bride or groom themselves.

In the season three finale, it turned out that while Nancy was eager to tie the knot, Bartise expressed his doubts about their relationship. This news didn’t go down well with Nancy’s family, who openly voiced their disapproval of Bartise.

Regardless of their ups and downs, Bartise and Nancy have kept a fluctuating relationship that could be described as more like a rollercoaster of friendship. In his conversation with TopMob, Bartise put it this way: “We’ve moved from being close friends to mere acquaintances, then to no communication at all, and now we’re back to being friends again.

In April 2023, Bartisse, a contestant from the show “Perfect Match”, revealed the birth of his son named Hayden. However, he has not disclosed the identity of the child’s mother in any public statements.

Several months later, he debuted his new romance with Cait Vanderberry on Instagram.

Nancy has started a fresh romance, though she hasn’t disclosed the identity of her partner in public yet.

 

In the final episode of the season, spectators saw Alexa and Brennon exchange vows amidst their cherished ones.

With touching sincerity, Alexa exclaimed, “You bring laughter into my life, spark thoughtfulness, and most importantly, you bring joy to my heart.

In January 2024, the couple revealed they were expecting a child, and in July of the same year, they happily introduced their newborn daughter, Vienna Ziva Lemieux, to the world.

Well, we can’t say we’re surprised by this breakup.

Throughout their romantic journey, they often found themselves at odds, leading to numerous disagreements. Despite reaching the wedding ceremony, Zanab expressed her feelings by saying, “You’ve shown disregard for me, you’ve hurt me with your words, you’ve criticized me, and to add insult to injury, you’ve devastated my self-esteem.

Cole later reflected on their tumultuous relationship.

He shared with TopMob News that despite facing numerous obstacles, we were managing and searching for calmer seas. So, I had hoped that we could carry on our journey, even if we didn’t tie the knot on that particular day.

Colleen and Matt successfully exchanged vows in the season three finale.

Regardless of the ups and downs they experienced while courting each other, the couple remained assured about their bond and joyfully exchanged wedding vows.

Colleen shared with TopMob News why she decided to proceed with the wedding: “When I witnessed him crying and sniffling, it felt like a confirmation. I thought, ‘That’s my partner.’ And from that moment on, I knew I would be saying yes when I saw him.

And for those wondering, Colleen confirmed, “A year-and-a-half later, we’re very, very happy.”

During the season finale, Sal wasn’t able to say, “I do.”

In an TopMob News interview, he revealed that he was single after filming.

He asked, ‘Are we going to date in the future?’ I’m not sure yet. However, I believe it might be wiser to avoid online dating platforms.

As we know, Deepti and Shake’s time on the show did not end with a happily ever after. 

As for me, I’m sharing that Deepti has parted ways, as she confided in TopMob News. However, it seems there’s been a rift between Shake and Deepti’s brother Sunny, as they’ve exchanged words on Instagram. To quote them directly, they called out Shake, saying something along the lines of: “Dude, you’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel,” Sunny and his partner Hina Merchant Vempati wrote jointly. “You’ve disrespected my sister by making some incredibly insensitive and awkward remarks about her.

They continued, urging Shake to “stay the f–k away” from their sister.

Looks like Shake will be heading to his Nobu reservation alone! 

Despite the fact that Natalie and Shayne didn’t get married on the show, Natalie confirmed to TopMob that the romantic stories portrayed were entirely sincere.

Natalie clarified, “What you see isn’t scripted entertainment like reality TV. It’s the genuine experiences, emotions, and connections that make up our everyday lives.

This is why Natalie felt deeply wounded when it seemed that Shayne had accepted a role in the spinoff series, Perfect Match, despite their efforts to rebuild their relationship following their broken marriage.

She disclosed on Instagram that he frequently messaged her expressing a desire to quit during the shooting as he was still emotionally attached to her following our encounter at the reunion show recording. However, she urged him to carry on with the filming.

Once the filming for Perfect Match was completed, Natalie indicated that she reconnected with Shayne, but eventually chose to part ways and not reconciling.

Simultaneously, Shayne had a short-lived relationship with Chloe Veitch, who he met while connecting on the show “Perfect Match,” following her stint on “Too Hot to Handle“.

Danielle initiated divorce proceedings against her husband Nick at a Chicago courthouse on August 15, 2022, over a year following their wedding which took place on the show’s finale.

On August 17, 2022, they shared a joint statement on Instagram, “After careful consideration, we regretfully announce our separation and the start of our divorce process. Although our hearts are still connected, our paths in life are diverging, which is perfectly fine. Making this decision was not an easy one, but we will always support each other’s happiness.

In the After the Altar spin-off, which premiered in September 2022, the couple acknowledged their friendship had transformed into a romantic relationship. However, Kyle disclosed a short while later that they parted ways after the special’s filming.

And in April, Kyle proposed to his girlfriend Tania Leanos, whom he did not meet in a pod.
