The “Love is Blind” Season 3 Pod Squad is here and they’re ready to find that forever love.
Netflix’s “Love Is Blind” – hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey – is back with another season where men and women will meet potential partners in hopes of finding their “forever” person. The series is like televised online dating, where men and women are introduced to potential partners in a version of speed dating, except, they never get to actually see each other until they decide they want to take things further…as in MARRIAGE!
Below are this season’s YBF contestants and what they do for a living:
Chelsey – 27, Customer Success Manager
Sikiru “SK” – 34, Data Engineer
Brannigan – 35, Critical Care Nurse
Raven – 29, Pilates Instructor
Bartise – 27, Senior Analyst
Kalekia – 31, ICU Nurse Practitioner
Kimberlee “Kim” – 30, Teacher & Coach
DaVonté – 29, Fitness Development Coach
Charita – 35, Makeup Artist
Good looking group of singles! This season, they are in Dallas and we all know everything is bigger in Texas. The question is…will there be BIG love or BIG heartache?!
Hopefully they find love and their forever person.
Speaking of heartache…
Back in August, Season 2 “Love Is Blind” couple Iyanna McNeely and Jarrette Jones announced they were going their separate ways in a joint statement, revealing they came to the conclusion after much thought. They were one of two couples to wed in the finale episode.
Now, the divorce has been filed.
According to PEOPLE, Iyanna filed for divorce from Jarrette through the Circuit Court of Cook County on Sept. 23rd, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for separation. She has hired Chicago-based attorney Amanda Oliver to represent her in the case, while Jarrette, also 28, has chosen to represent himself.
“As most know by now, Iyanna and I have decided to go our separate ways,” Jerrette said in a statement to PEOPLE. “In doing so, we’re still moving forward with the decision to file for divorce. I’ll continue to wish Iyanna nothing but happiness and success with every future endeavor. I’m thankful for the continued support from everyone and hope for understanding during this difficult time.”
While some fans felt they would go the distance, many fans already had a hunch it wasn’t going to work since Jarrette TOLD Iyanna that she was his second choice. He developed a connection with Mallory Zapata during the vetting “pod phase,” but after she turned him down, Jarrette put his focus on Iyanna, and they got engaged.
Fans felt Iyanna should have declined his engagement and never married him after he told her she was his second choice. Now, they’re dunzo. Sucks.
Season 3 of “Love Is Blind” starts October 19th. New episodes will roll out each Wednesday across 12 episodes. Will you be watching?
