- Love Is Blind has produced a number of happy couplings since premiering in 2020.
- Many of these couples are thriving, while others have called it quits.
- The series now encompasses spinoffs in the U.K., Sweden, France, and beyond.
Netflix’s hit series Love Is Blind seeks to answer a question that’s haunted humanity for centuries: Is love truly blind?
While the answer to that question has often been a resounding “no,” the reality dating show does have its success stories. Its batting average after eight seasons is better than you might think.
Here’s the premise: A gaggle of matrimony-seeking singles go on dates in “pods” that put a wall up between the potential couples. The goal is for the singles to connect on an emotional and intellectual level before seeing each other in person, thus building a foundation stronger than just physical attraction.
It’s a good idea in theory, but we’ve seen enough seasons by now to know many pod romances crumble once the masks are off. After all, one of the show’s guiltiest pleasures is searching each contestant’s face during the reveal to suss out their true feelings.
With season 9 kicking off on Oct. 1, read on to see which Love Is Blind couples are still together after taking the plunge on TV.
Lauren and Cameron (season 1)
Netflix
Status: Married
The first season of Love Is Blind debuted in 2020, culminating in two of the franchise’s biggest success stories. One of them is Lauren Speed-Hamilton and Cameron Hamilton, who many would deem the franchise’s poster couple.
“We made the most use of our time possible,” Cameron told Entertainment Weekly at the time. “We went into the pods with things that we wanted to talk about in mind. The conversation came very naturally. It all just felt fated and surreal.”
Since their televised wedding, the couple published a book, started two podcasts, and positioned themselves as relationship gurus via their YouTube channel.
In October 2024, they discussed Lauren’s fertility struggles on their Love Seat podcast. “When I saw what you were going through, in terms of taking the medications, doing the daily shots, knowing that IVF and all this stuff wasn’t really something that you naturally wanted to do but you did it for me,” said Cameron. “You showed me a new level of love that I’d never seen before.”
Lauren added, “It has affected us as a couple because it has made us feel more connected. We support each other. We’re more in tune now.”
In May 2025, the couple exclusively shared with PEOPLE that they’re expecting their first baby after four years of trying. On Aug. 1, they announced on Instagram that they’re having a boy.
Amber and Matt (season 1)
Netflix
Status: Married
Matt and Amber Barnett overcame a little bit of jealousy and a lot of credit card debt to cultivate a stable relationship. What’s more, they’re on the verge of becoming parents.
In October 2024, the couple revealed that a baby was on the way. While guesting on the first episode of The Love Seat, Amber said, “I sent myself back to school because I felt like we were in a place where I could do that. I had the support, and I was mentally there. And then over summer break he just went and knocked me up.”
In April 2025, the couple welcomed their first child, a baby girl. “Baby Barnett has arrived and is more perfect than anything I could’ve dreamed,” Amber wrote on Instagram. “It may be the hormones but @barnettisblind and our baby girl have my heart so full I can hardly function, I hope this feeling never goes away.”
The parents have since shared glimpses of life with their daughter on Instagram. In September 2025, Amber revealed she recently started physical therapy to recover from the physical toll of pregnancy and childbirth.
Alexa and Brennon (season 3)

An unlikely pair that sailed to the altar with few complications, Alexa and Brennon Lemieux seemed ready to say “I do” after their first date in the pods. Now, they’re not only still together, but also the parents of a baby girl named Vienna Ziva Lemieux.
They announced the pregnancy in January 2024, revealing that it had been a long process. “We’ve been trying for almost a year and a half, so it was a lot,” Alexa told PEOPLE at the time.
She continued, “I went through some fertility treatments and nothing worked. I was really nervous that maybe we’re never going to be able to have kids… I want to be a mom. That’s all I ever wanted to be, and so, it was just a very down time for me. I was really going through it because I’m like, ‘I can’t do the one thing that I feel like I was put on this earth to do.’ And for me, it strips you of your womanhood. That’s what it felt like. And feeling like I was broken.”
The pair were considering setting up an IVF appointment when they learned a baby had been conceived naturally.
In August 2024, Alexa and Brennon introduced the world to Vienna in an Instagram post. “She has mommy’s hair and daddy’s dimples and we couldn’t be more in love,” Alexa wrote.
Bliss and Zack (season 4)

Zack Goytowski and Bliss Poureetezadi had one of the stranger journeys on Love Is Blind, mainly because Zack initially broke up with Bliss in favor of Irina Solomonova, who proved herself to be perhaps the meanest contestant in the show’s history.
After a disastrous trip to Mexico where Irina appeared repulsed by pretty much everything Zack did, the couple split and Zack crawled back to Bliss. It was a testament to their deep bond that Bliss was able to look past his poor decision-making.
“Everyone deserves a second chance,” Bliss told EW during the season. “Because of the strong connection that we built, I was going to give an opportunity for a second chance. Because I believe that this was my person, and I was right.”
It turned out to be the right choice, as the couple remains happily married. They welcomed a baby girl named Galileo Terri Rayne in May 2024.
“We are so in love with our precious, beautiful baby girl,” Zack and Bliss told PEOPLE. “We are forever changed and are so blessed to spend the rest of our lives loving her. She is our moon, our stars, the center of our universe.”
Zack and Bliss even brought their little one to the Love Is Blind season 7 reunion.
Chelsea and Kwame (season 4)

Status: Married
Kwame Appiah and Chelsea Griffin nearly didn’t make it. Before walking down the aisle, he uttered the two words no one wants to hear on their wedding day: “cold feet.”
Kwame was hesitant to take the plunge for several reasons, the most prominent being his mother’s refusal to attend the wedding. Family matters, after all. He did, however, say yes, and the couple is still together.
While their Instagram accounts are filled with doting posts about each other, Kwame shared a distressing update about his health in January, revealing that he’d been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease.
A month later, the pair spoke with Swooon about their family plans. “We don’t necessarily know what the exact next step is. I think the goal is to eventually build a bigger family, right?” Kwame said. “We don’t know if 2025 is the year. We don’t know if it’s 2026, but the goal is we are trying to learn from each other, uplift each other, and grow with each other as much as we possibly can until we get to that point where we believe we will be able to support not just each other, but maybe another life.”
Tiffany and Brett (season 4)
Netflix
Status: Married
One of the franchise’s strongest couples, Brett and Tiffany continue to flex their connection at Love Is Blind reunions and on social media, where they revealed in September 2024 that they’re new homeowners.
“New Chapter, new address!! We’re officially homeowners!” Brett wrote on Instagram.
We could crack a joke, but what is there to say? He had a lot of sneakers? She fell asleep in the pods? That just makes them more relatable.
Amy and Johnny (season 6)

Status: Married
Let’s be honest: These two were a snooze. We say this, of course, as drama-hungry consumers of a television program. In actuality, being a snore on Love Is Blind is probably the best indication that you’re in it for the long haul. Many congrats to Johnny McIntyre and Amy Cortés. We never want to hear you talk about birth control again.
As anyone who watched the show knows, Johnny and Amy were obsessed with each other from the start. As Johnny revealed to EW, they even broke the rules in order to spend more time together before the wedding.
“They told us we were supposed to be apart for, I think, three days before the wedding, to really think about our decision and what we want to do,” he said. “And of course, we were apart only for three minutes before my Uber came to pick me up, and then Amy took my car to go back to her hotel, then that Uber picked her up, so [producers] didn’t really know. Did anyone yell at us? No, but we definitely knew we were both going to say yes well in advance.”
They still appear obsessed with each other, routinely posting travel pics (and lip-syncs) with their adorable dog in tow.
This October, they will officiate a wedding vow renewal ceremony in New York. The event, hosted by Citizen and Zales, will celebrate 20 married couples whose 2020 weddings were derailed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Taylor and Garrett (season 7)

Status: Married
Taylor Krause and Garrett Josemans only hit a couple speed bumps on their way to the altar. The first, however, was a big one. “Garrett and I weren’t initially really attracted to each other,” Taylor said on the Sorry We’re Cyrus podcast.
“Hold on, hold on,” Garrett clarified. “Initially, as in at the reveal.”
Thankfully, the spark became a flame as the couple spent more time together. It was nearly blown out, however, when Taylor caught Garrett lying about messages he’d exchanged with an ex after exiting the pods. It was pretty tame stuff, though, and only served to ruin the season’s Great Gatsby-themed party. (Side note: Fights are always more entertaining when the couples are in costume.)
Since tying the knot, the couple bought a home in Washington D.C., a compromise Taylor, who initially hoped to move to San Diego, chose to make.
Speaking on The Viall Files podcast, the couple revealed that the decision over where to move felt “irreconcilable” at first. “That was our biggest struggle this summer was working through that together and understanding we still love each other, wanna make this work, but these are real feelings that we’re feeling and trying to understand them and communicate them at the same time,” said Garrett.
Daniel and Taylor (season 8)

Status: Married
A walk down the aisle looked unlikely after Daniel Hastings and Taylor Haag met for the first time outside of the pods. After seeing him in the flesh, Taylor suspected that Daniel used to follow her on Instagram, meaning he knew what she looked like throughout their blind courtship.
But Daniel denied the accusation, and they managed to work through the awkwardness and become the only couple wed by the end of season 8.
The pair was in good spirits during the season 8 reunion, with Daniel flaunting a tattoo of Taylor’s eyes on his chest that’s equal parts romantic and upsetting.
In May 2025, Daniel and Taylor renewed their vows in Chaska, Minn.
“Yesterday we said ‘I do’ a second time with a vow renewal and dancing the night away with 400 of our favorite people,” Haag wrote on Instagram. “What a gift it is to choose each other again and again.”
They have since bought a home and welcomed a new family member: Sunny, a golden retriever.
