In the fifth season of “Love Is Blind,” Johnie Maraist faces a challenging decision between Izzy Zapata and Chris Fox. Unfortunately, she ends up going home alone after making the wrong choice. Izzy breaks up with Johnie and gets engaged to Stacy Snyder, leaving Johnie heartbroken. Desperate to reignite her connection with Chris, Johnie pleads for him to give their relationship another chance.
Initially, Chris rejects Johnie’s advances, expressing his desire to be someone’s first choice in a relationship. However, his feelings change off-camera when he reunites with Johnie at the airport after filming in the pods concludes. By the time they join the rest of the cast, Chris and Johnie’s relationship is already serious enough for Chris to have met Johnie’s mother. Despite ongoing drama between Johnie and Izzy, including hurtful comments and attempts to convince Chris that Johnie is not right for him, their relationship appears to be strong at that point.
However, it has now been more than a year since the filming of “Love Is Blind” season five. Fans are left wondering whether Chris and Johnie continued dating beyond the conclusion of the show. The current status of their relationship remains unknown.
Johnie and Chris appeared together at the reunion of the popular reality show “Love Is Blind.” However, it was revealed that they have since broken up, and the reason behind it is quite shocking. After the cast meetup, where they were filmed as a couple, Chris attended a friend’s wedding and didn’t contact Johnie for weeks afterwards. Later, Johnie’s friend informed her that she had seen Chris with another woman.
During the reunion, Chris openly admits that he mishandled the relationship. He states that he avoided breaking up with Johnie because he didn’t want to hurt her. Chris claims to have apologized to Johnie, and their interactions at the reunion suggest that they are on friendly terms, as they even sit next to each other on the couch.
Chris is now dating Erin Berger, as evident from her Instagram post in July 2022, just a few months after the filming of “Love Is Blind” season five. In the post, Chris expresses gratitude for having Erin in his life. Moreover, on Valentine’s Day 2023, Erin refers to Chris as her valentine in another Instagram post, where Chris openly declares his love for Erin in the comments. Chris also mentions at the reunion that they live together.
During a cast meetup at a Houston bar, after Izzy apologized for his previous behavior towards Johnie, he and Johnie shared a kiss in his car. However, their relationship did not progress beyond that.
Johnie, on the other hand, discloses at the reunion that she has been in a relationship for a year. Following the airing of the reunion, she publicly announced her relationship with a man named Alex on Instagram. She captions a collection of photos and videos, expressing her gratitude towards Alex for showing her what true love is.
