Love Is Blind season 7 has leaped to the next step of the social experiment where the engaged couples have traveled to Mexico for their honeymoon. The couples took their time to offer commitment and get engaged via pods without meeting each other in person. Out of 29 singles, episode 5 introduced us to the final 6 couples who believed in their connection and decided to travel to Mexico.
The show premiered on October 2 and released its first six episodes. The audience witnessed these singles' journey through the pods, before finally meeting the couples who sealed it with the ring. The 6 couples who got engaged in pods were Garrett and Taylor, Alexandra and Tim, Ashley and Tyler, Hannah and Nick, Monica and Stephen, and Marissa and Ramses.
Leo and Brittany also got engaged in episode 5 but did not travel to Mexico, and as reported, broke their engagement off after a week of their travel to Miami. Let us have a look at all the engaged couples who made it through the pods to the vacation in Mexico.
Who were the couples to make it through the pods in Love Is Blind season 7?
Season 7 had 6 couples who made their way to the next chapter of their dating lives. Here is where they are in their relationships :
Alexandra and Tim
Tim and Alexandra got engaged in episode 4 of Love Is Blind season 7. The couple bonded over their several dates in the pods and discussed their vulnerabilities, families, and faith. The couple bonded over family values, and how vital their families were in their lives. Tim opened up about losing his two elder sisters, and how it shaped his life. Alexandra was moved by Tim gifting her his sister's bracelet, and telling her 'she could be another daughter for his father'.
The Mexico vacation strengthened their relationship as they got to explore each other closely. The couple got into a blip over tidiness but soon reconciled with a promise to communicate better in the future.
Hannah and Nick
Nick and Hannah got engaged in episode 5 of Love Is Blind season 7, and bonded instantly from their first date. The college football player came with his charm and confidence, which Hannah found very impressive. However, Hannah had another connection in the pod in the form of Leo. Hannah decided to go with Leo, and soon regretted the decision, only to come back and get engaged to Nick.
Their Mexico vacation started on a good note for the couple but soon Hannah was taken aback by Nick's immaturity and flirtatious behavior. The couple stands on shaky ground as of now.
Garrett and Taylor
Garrett and Taylor were the first to get engaged in season 7 of Love Is Blind, settling a good precedent for other couples. As weird as it sounds, the couple bonded over their scientific inclinations and their tattoos. The chemistry between the two was evident from the start. However, Taylor was a little skeptical about disclosing her half-Chinese ethnicity but Garrett understood her side which only made their connection stronger.
After all the hiccups, the duo is looking to be one of the most sought-after couples in season 7, especially after their Mexico sojourn.
Marissa and Hamses
Marissa was torn between Ramses and Bohdan in season 7 of Love Is Blind, as both of them appeared quite similar in their personalities. Marissa was drawn to the progressive, vulnerable, and understanding nature of both men. She also exclaimed while talking to Ramses that:
"You guys literally are [the same person]. How am I going to choose?"
However, she admitted to Bohdan that she wanted to focus on Ramses as their romantic chemistry was more visible to her. The couple got engaged and has been thriving since they reached Mexico for their honeymoon.
Ashley and Tyler
Ashley and Tyle bonded over their shared belief system, and how being vulnerable is the road to a healthy relationship. From the very first date, both did not shy away from laying down their insecurities. Tyler opened up about his difficult childhood and Ashley comforted him. Ashley surprised Tyler on his birthday with a cake and balloons. She also read a note to him to express her love.
With their shared wish to create a happy family of their own, the couple sealed the deal with a ring.
Monica and Stephen
Monica and Stephen were drawn to each other by their shared belief system. Stephen started their relationship by being honest and confessing that he had been unfaithful in his previous relationships. Monica understood him and told him to be gentle with himself and start fresh.
Both believed in working towards their imperfect attributes and making the most of it. They shared their political views and how important their ancestral lineages were to them. After getting engaged, Stephen proclaimed in the confessional that he was going to marry Monica. It would be fascinating for the fans to witness their journey from pods to the aisle.
Love is Blind season 7 promises more drama going forward as fans can expect to be taken on a journey to explore issues that affect couples as a whole and individually as well. The show has been well received with netizens stirring up conversations around it on various social media platforms.
