“Love Without Sight: Checking In on the Current Status of Love Is Blind Duos”

Here’s an update on the beloved Love Is Blind couples, revealing which pairs are still going strong and which have gone their separate ways.

Check out the latest updates on your beloved Love Is Blind couples. This popular Netflix show first aired in 2020, featuring singles looking for love who decide to get engaged before meeting face-to-face. While not every couple has made it down the aisle, there have been several success stories. Currently, eight couples from the show are happily married. With the release of season 6, let’s take a look at where the couples stand today – who is still going strong, and who has decided to part ways.

After hitting it off right away in the pods, Johnny and Ammy decided to take the next step and get engaged on the show. Once they came back from their romantic getaway to the Dominican Republic, they took the big leap and moved in together in Charlotte, North Carolina. Living together as an engaged couple, they navigated the ups and downs of preparing for their wedding, which finally took place during the exciting season 6 finale.

Thanks to Netflix, we got to see Jeramey Lutinski juggle dating Sarah Ann Bick and Laura Dadisman in the pods. In the end, he chose to propose to Laura. But things took a turn when he kept hanging out with Sarah Ann, leading Laura to call it quits. At the lake party in episode 9, Jeramey made it clear that he was done with Laura and now focused on spending time with Sarah Ann.

Adam Rose and Chelsea found themselves entangled in love triangles during their time on Netflix’s dating show. Despite their engagement in the Dominican Republic, things took a turn for the worse once they returned home to North Carolina.
Chelsea expressed her concerns about Jimmy’s lack of affection, while he accused her of being too needy. The breaking point came when Jimmy went out with friends, including an ex he had been intimate with in the past.
Ultimately, Jimmy decided to end their relationship, admitting that he wasn’t ready for a commitment. “I care about you deeply and want a future with you, but I’m not prepared to take that next step,” Jimmy explained to Chelsea.

Kenneth and Brittany were among the first couples who got engaged in the pods on the Adam Rose/Netflix show. They initially bonded over their shared faith, but after leaving the Dominican Republic, they realized that there wasn’t a physical spark between them. Kenneth shared with PEOPLE that they had a strong and genuine connection that he had never felt before. However, with less than a week to go before their wedding, they both agreed that given the current situation, they couldn’t say yes to each other.

In the Adam Rose series on Netflix, Amber first hit it off with Matthew Duliba but eventually switched her focus to Clay. Although Clay was a bit hurt upon discovering Amber’s history with Matthew, he ultimately decided to pop the question. However, their romance started to crumble as Clay opened up about his doubts regarding commitment and marriage readiness. Eventually, he made the tough decision to say “no,” explaining to Amber that he didn’t feel prepared to fully commit to her at that moment.

Lydia Velez Gonzalez and James ‘Milton’ Johnson IV exited season 5 of the reality show as a newlywed couple, having found love in the unique setting of the pods. Despite the challenges they faced on the show, they revealed during the reunion special that their marital bliss was still going strong after almost a year and a half.
In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Lydia and James provided a glimpse into their married life and mentioned that they are currently in a long-distance relationship as they pursue their individual career goals.

In the pods, Izzy Zapata made connections with multiple women, but it was Stacy Snyder who captured his heart and received his marriage proposal in the end.
Although Izzy said yes to marrying Stacy on their wedding day, she wasn’t quite ready for the commitment. Despite this, they shared a loving moment with a kiss, and it seemed like they might give their relationship another shot.
However, Izzy later realized that he needed some space. In a recent interview with PEOPLE, he mentioned that he and Stacy are still on good terms and have actually become closer through the criticism they faced online after the show.
Izzy also expressed how his current girlfriend has been very understanding of his friendship with Stacy, even though it could be a bit awkward for everyone involved.

Aaliyah Cosby decided to leave the experiment soon after Uche Okoroha revealed his past relationship with her friend Lydia Velez Gonzalez. Uche was upset by her departure and tried to persuade Aaliyah to give their relationship another chance, but she rejected his efforts.

Afterwards, they met for lunch where Aaliyah was willing to give it another shot, only for Uche to decline, citing her inconsistent behavior post-experiment as a reason. Uche later clarified on the Miss Understood podcast that they did continue their relationship, despite how it was edited to make it seem like he ended things.

Johnie Maraist and Chris Fox had a tumultuous relationship on the show, going through ups and downs. Despite breaking up with Chris to pursue Izzy Zapata, Johnie eventually returned to Chris. After initially rejecting her, Chris and Johnie reconciled and decided to continue their relationship outside of the pods.

Unfortunately, during the reunion special, Chris admitted to cheating on Johnie, leading to the end of their relationship. Following their split, Johnie didn’t waste any time and introduced her new boyfriend, Alex Yovanovic, on Instagram with a caption that said, “I’m doing just fine 🩵,” along with a video montage of photos featuring her and Alex.

Taylor Rue and Jared “JP” Pierce appeared to be soulmates during their time in the pods on season 5, becoming the first couple to get engaged. However, once they met face-to-face in Mexico, their chemistry seemed to fizzle out, leading to their decision to go their separate ways. Fast forward to October 2023, JP proudly introduced his new girlfriend Ellen on Instagram, expressing his love and admiration for her in a heartfelt post. He described her as the sweetest, most caring, and all-around amazing person he’s ever met, making it clear that he has found happiness once again.

Jackelina “Jackie” Bonds and Marshall Glaze’s relationship hit a rough patch during their time on LIB, leading to Jackie choosing to end their engagement. Instead, she rekindled things with Josh Demas, who professed his love for her over coffee. Marshall, on the other hand, harbors no ill feelings about their breakup, believing that everything happens for a reason.

As for Jackie and Josh, they shared in a video interview that they were still happily together and living with their pet dog and fish. However, their relationship took a turn in September 2023 when Jackie announced their split in an Instagram Live session.

Meanwhile, Marshall moved on with his new girlfriend, Chay Barnes, as he celebrated their one-year anniversary on Instagram, expressing gratitude for their resilient and loving relationship. Here’s to many more years of happiness for both couples.

Despite facing some obstacles in their relationship at the start, such as Kwame’s mother not being initially supportive and his past interactions with his ex Micah Lussier, Chelsea and Kwame ultimately tied the knot on Love Is Blind. Chelsea expressed her love for Kwame at the wedding, stating that she is ready for a beautiful journey as his wife.

In an interview with PEOPLE, Chelsea shared that she holds no resentment towards Lussier and is looking forward to moving forward with Kwame. She emphasized that she respects Kwame’s path and sees Lussier’s interest in him as a positive trait. Chelsea also mentioned that she has met Kwame’s mother and had a positive experience, acknowledging that there is room for growth within their families and friends as they navigate their unique and nontraditional marriage.

After the Love Is Blind reunion, Chelsea and Kwame discussed their future plans, including the possibility of relocating. Kwame expressed their desire to explore various options to ensure a successful marriage journey, whether that means staying in Seattle or moving elsewhere. They are excited about the opportunities and options ahead as they embark on this new chapter together.

Micah Lussier and Paul Peden faced challenges in their relationship early on, with differing visions for their futures causing a rift. Ultimately, they decided not to get married, with Paul expressing his love for Micah but acknowledging that they weren’t the right choice for each other at that moment.
In an interview with PEOPLE, Micah shared that she wanted Paul to respond first during their wedding ceremony so he wouldn’t feel pressured. She emphasized that she wasn’t afraid of his answer but wanted him to be true to himself.
At the Love Is Blind reunion, Micah and Paul admitted that they continued to see each other post-show, but they have since broken up. In May 2023, Paul revealed his new girlfriend, Geneva Dunham, with whom he has been in a relationship since then.

Tiffany Pennywell and Brett Brown were among the first couples to become engaged and their wedding day went off without a hitch, with the couple saying their vows seamlessly. Tiffany, emotional, told Brett during the ceremony: “Throughout every step of this journey, you have remained true to yourself, and that’s when I knew I had fallen in love with you. It wasn’t just a physical attraction, but how you connected with my soul.”
Despite the couple’s happy ending, they did encounter some challenges along the way. “The biggest obstacle for me was trying to navigate living in a new city. I had everything set up perfectly in Seattle, but moving there wasn’t an option,” Tiffany shared with PEOPLE.
Even though they faced hurdles, the couple’s love remained strong, and they marked their first wedding anniversary in May 2023 by enjoying a fun date night at a Lakers game. “Time really does fly by. One year down, and many more to come,” Tiffany posted on Instagram to commemorate the occasion.

After initially breaking up with Bliss Poureetezadi to pursue Irina Solomonova in the pods, Zack Goytowski ended up rekindling his relationship with Bliss and ultimately popping the question. The couple joyfully accepted each other’s vows, sharing their first dance to the sweet melody of “I Hope You Dance” by Lee Ann Womack and Sons of the Desert.

Reflecting on their journey, Bliss shared with PEOPLE that all the occurrences following their reunion affirmed the rightness of their bond. The Love Is Blind: After the Altar special documented their shared adventure of moving in together, as they faced a tough challenge when Bliss discovered Zack’s pet allergies. Ultimately, she had to bid farewell to her beloved pets, entrusting them to her mom and sister.

“We’ve had to make significant sacrifices for each other in our relatively short time together,” Bliss expressed to PEOPLE. “From Zack enduring the physical challenges of getting allergy shots regularly, to me parting ways with my furry friends, those moments strengthened our connection and taught us that relationships involve more than just compromising on small things like chores.”

In an exclusive revelation by PEOPLE in November 2023, the couple happily announced that they were expecting their first child. Bliss described the news as both nerve-wracking and beautiful, eagerly anticipating the arrival of their bundle of joy in spring 2024.

After facing some challenges early on in their relationship, such as the prospect of being in a long-distance relationship, Raven Ross ultimately agreed to marry SK Alagbada on their wedding day. However, later on, SK surprised everyone by informing Raven that he couldn’t go through with the marriage despite his love for her.

Despite this setback, the couple worked through their issues and shared during a reunion that they had reignited their love. But in November 2022, they announced their breakup due to allegations of online cheating against SK.

In a joint statement, they expressed their sadness over the decision to part ways. “We are choosing to separate at this time,” they announced. “Due to the legal implications of the ongoing allegations, we are unable to provide further details and request that our privacy be respected during this challenging period.”

In February 2023, SK finally addressed the situation in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE. While he denied physically being unfaithful to Raven, he did confess to engaging in inappropriate conversations with another woman during their relationship.

“I’m speaking out now because I believe it’s important to take responsibility for my actions,” he explained in the interview. “This isn’t about making apologies but rather about owning up to my mistakes, learning from them, and continuing to grow as a person.”

After exchanging vows, the couple has remained happily married ever since. Alfia expressed her profound love for her husband during the season 3 reunion, stating, “I’ve never experienced a love like his.” Discussing their relationship exclusively with PEOPLE, she mentioned, “While our backgrounds may be different, our shared love for family is what truly matters. Money can’t buy the kind of love I have with Brennon. He means everything to me.”

In January 2024, PEOPLE made an exclusive announcement that the couple was expecting their first child together. Brennon shared his thoughts, saying, “It’s funny how life works out. When you least expect something to happen, it surprises you. That was the case when we met each other. We had both given up on dating, and then we crossed paths on a show. The same unexpected magic is happening with this pregnancy. It’s always a good surprise.”

Despite initially looking like an odd match, Colleen Reed and Matt Bolton ended up tying the knot. In a recent reunion special, they shared that they are happily married. Their journey together has led them to moving in together in June 2023.

Reflecting on their experience, Matt shared with PEOPLE, “Coming out of the show and adjusting to normal life, you really get to know each other on a deeper level. It was a bit rocky at first, but it’s all about finding a balance in merging your lives together. You have to consider each other’s schedules and find a way to blend them seamlessly. Sometimes, you have to give up certain weekend activities to make it work.”
