Your support makes all the difference.Netflix’s Love is Blind has concluded its experiment – but until the reunion episode on 5 March, it remains unclear which contestants are still together.
The series finale saw the remaining couples meeting at the alter to either marry or publicly end their relationship in front of a room of family and friends.
The series was filmed back in 2018, meaning most relationships would have surpassed the one-year mark by now if they’ve survived.
So, who has managed to make it work?
Amber Pike and Matt Barnett
Despite having cold feet on their wedding day, both Amber and Barnett chose to get married.
Fans have used social media to uncover evidence that suggests they are still together.
When Barnett appeared on Instagram wearing an American flag-patterned cowboy hat, sleuths pointed out that Pike was seen wearing the same hat only a day earlier.
Damian Powers and Giannina Gibelli
A strong couple at the start of the show, Damian and Giannina got down on one knee and proposed to each other at the same time.
But the couple crumbled apart at the end with Damien refusing to marry her. He said he felt Giannina wasn’t the same person he met at the beginning of the show.
In an Instagram post, Giannina revealed 2019 was a difficult year for her: “This past year was ROUGH (like WTF kinda rough), and it taught me so many lessons that I’m very grateful for. Growth hurts sometimes."
Kelly Chase and Kenny Barnes
These two were singled out by the other couples as the most likely to stay together.
“I love you today, and that love will remain, but I can’t wait to learn to love you even more,” Kenny told her during his proposal.
But Kelly decided not to marry Kenny as she didn’t feel a physical attraction towards him.
She said she still loved him, but Kenny admitted he wasn’t sure if he could give her another chance.
One of Kelly’s recent Instagram posts was about being single in your 30s—“I know boundaries now. I love myself so much that I won’t just be with a guy bc I’m lonely.”
Mark Cuevas and Jessica Batten
While Mark always expressed his strong feelings for Jessica, she felt they were lacking in chemistry. After deciding to go through with the wedding, Jessica changed her mind at the altar and refused to marry him.
Mark revealed to New York Post that he reached out to Jessica.
“I didn’t hear back, but to me, it’s just sending love out there,” he said, adding that Love is Blind was still the “best” thing to happen to him. “Without Jessica, there would not be a Mark of today.”
Carlton Morton and Diamond Jack
Carlton and Diamond broke up during an explosive fight after Carlton revealed to her that he was bisexual.
But the formerly engaged couple are not ruling out friendship. Carlton told People, “At this point, whatever happens, happens. It would be great. But it takes time I think.
“I think we both have to still process the way we feel. We still have different views on the way things panned out and what was done wrong.“
Diamond added, “We have a lot of growing, both of us, to do and I am willing to grow. I love growing but I feel like we can at least come now to a medium and be able to sit and now talk because this is a very touchy subject. And both of us still get emotional about it.”
Lauren Speed and Cameron Hamilton
Lauren and Cameron became the first couple to get engaged and it seems as though they are still together.
In December, both Cameron and Lauren posted holiday photos from Cancun. Though they didn’t tag each other or post photos of one another, they are wearing the same pair of sunglasses.
In an interview with Elite Daily, Lauren said: “Oh my God. We’re so happy. It’s just, like, every day we learn more and more about each other, and we honestly fall more and more in love with each other.”
Cameron posted a photo from their wedding day on his Instagram under the caption: “The happiest day of my life.”
