A brand-new batch of aspiring reality stars singles are gathering in Boston for the annual social experiment known as Love Is Blind, and the first installment of Season 11 is officially out on Netflix. Episodes 1–5 saw the cast get to know each other in the pods, and several relationships were formed. Here’s who left together and where they stand going into episodes 6–8 (which drop next Wednesday)!
Their post-proposal meeting was slightly awkward and included a Mickey Mouse impression, but these two went to Mexico together and have kept things strictly platonic so far (as in: they haven’t kissed yet). We’ll see how the relationship progresses! She laughs a lot at his dad jokes, so that’s something.
They connected in the pods and were going to go to Mexico post-engagement, but then Jax pulled out and decided to go home. Producers had to awkwardly tell “Connecticut Boy” Stew the news; however, it looks like he and Jax reunite in a future episode, so we’ll see what happens. Sure, it was touch and go there for a moment due to an early-days-of-the-pods love triangle, but after a sweet proposal (with her family wedding ring, no less), the vibes in Mexico are very romantic.
Despite Sarah overhearing John tell a fellow contestant that she was in his bottom two (note to everyone: CLOSE THE DOOR TO YOUR POD), they managed to reconcile, get through some tough political conversations, and...get engaged with a lemur stuffed animal as their witness. As of Mexico, these two are giddy over each other, so things are looking positive. After being torn between two connections in the pods, Rob proposed to Michaella and they seem to be hitting it off in Mexico.
We’re slightly concerned based on next week’s preview, but stay tuned. Honestly, Blake keeps bringing up his other pod-connection with Benita, which isn’t exactly ideal, so TBD on if these two are in it for the long haul.
