The success rate of this reality TV show has been the topic of conversation since it premiered. Though, you might be surprised about how many Love Is Blind divorced couples there are. (Hint: it’s not that many.)
Love Is Blind, which first premiered on Netflix in February 2020, follows around 30 men and women over the course of a couple weeks as they speed-date in “Pods,” where they can talk to each other but not see each other. During the 10 days, the couples can decide if they want to get engaged—still sight unseen. After the proposal, the couples meet face-to-face for the first time and go on vacation at a resort in Mexico, where they learn more about each other and meet the other couples. After the trip, the couples, who all live in the same city, return to the real world and move into an apartment together as they meet each other’s families and friends and prepare for their weddings. At the altar on their wedding days, the couples must decide whether to marry or break up as they answer the age-old question of if love can be truly blind.
Since the premiere of Love Is Blind, the show has become one of Netflix’s highest-rated series, with more than 30 million views in its first two months. “Across the world, everybody feels the same way: Everyone wants to be loved for who they are on the inside. It doesn’t matter where you live, what you look like, how old you are, what your background is, which class you know, or social structure you feel like you’re a part of, everyone wants to be loved for who they are,” creator Chris Coelen told Variety in 2020. “In today’s society we’ve got all these ways to find love through dating apps and technology. Those things sort of counterintuitively have made people feel disposable. They’ve made people feel like it’s all surface level. It does the opposite thing it was supposed to do. So we thought, what if we took everybody’s devices away, how could we get them to focus on connecting with other people?”
Coelen also told Variety about how the connections on Love Is Blind were based on choice, which is why the relationships were that much stronger. “It was incredibly scary because nobody had to do anything, versus a show like we do Married at First Sight, you sign up and you know, you’re getting married to a stranger. Here, nobody had to do anything. It was if you find someone, if you choose. Which is so scary. They don’t have to go through with the wedding ceremony,” he said. “But assuming they found someone, could that love overcome any judgment in the real world? That’s an incredibly fascinating question. And that’s what we set out to try to examine.”

Here’s which Love Is Blind couples got divorced after they left the altar together and who’s still together from all seasons of the Netflix dating show.
Jarrett Jones & Iyanna McNeely (season 2)
Season: 2
Jarrette and Ayanna, who starred in season 2 of Love Is Blind, announced they were divorcing in August 2022, a month after they celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary. “After much thought, we’re saddened to share that we have separated and will begin the process of divorcing,” they wrote in a joint Instagram statement at the time. “While we have love for each other, our lives are going in different directions and that’s OK. Coming to this decision was far from easy and we will always wish each other the absolute best.”
The statement continued: “We hope you all will give us some space as we close this chapter of our lives. Thank you to our close friends and family for loving us both through our experience. To the Love Is Blind family and Netflix, thank you for this unforgettable opportunity and support.”
Ayanna and Jarrette were still together in the Love Is Blind: After the Altar special, which aired in September 2022, a month after they announced their divorce.
Iyanna revealed her true feelings about the divorce in a now-deleted TikTok. “It is official. Divorce really is like, a grief. As much as people laugh at how long we were married, I think my expectations made it real. My hope made it real. My effort made it real. My tears made it real.”
Danielle Ruhl and Nick Thompson (season 2)
Season: 2
Danielle, a 29-year-old associate director in marketing, and Nick, a 36-year-old vice president of product marketing, met and got engaged in The Pods on Love Is Blind season 2, and married at their wedding during the finale. They were one of two couples to marry from Love Is Blind season 2, along with Jarrette and Iyanna.
In an interview with STYLECASTER in July 2022, a month before her split from Nick, Danielle revealed that she and Nick were still trying to “date” again after they stopped filming Love Is Blind. “Because of the condensed timeline, we’re trying to almost date,” she said. “You’re married and you’re living together, but there are certain aspects of your lives you didn’t get to experience. We want to make sure we’re able to experience those before we talk about [the future].” She continued, “We want kids together. I’m still envisioning what they look like in my head and how much fun we’re going to have at their tee ball game. “It’s cool to be able to envision those things, but we’re also taking our time.”
The two filed for divorce in August 2022, but they released statements on social media in September. “It has taken some time to publicly speak about my marriage ending, as emotions are still raw,” Danielle wrote. “I’ll always care about Nick and appreciate our time together. As a wise woman said — choose yourself.”
Nick shared: “I am heartbroken my marriage ended. I know in my heart that I did the best I could and gave it everything I had.”
