Is Love Truly Blind? Here Are All the 'LIB' Couples Still Together Today
“[I] deeply fell in love with him in the pods and I felt like I knew that this was my person without a shadow of a doubt. Like I felt it in my bones."

In February 2020, mere weeks before the COVID-19 pandemic descended upon us, Netflix dropped a new reality dating show. Although entertainment is drowning in relationship shows, this one felt different. Love Is Blind asked that age old question, is love blind? They answered it by placing men and women in separate pods. Unable to actually see each other, the contestants were forced to get to know each other through conversation and alcohol.
Everyone went into this social experiment with a goal of leaving with a spouse. The final episodes of each season featured engaged couples standing at an altar, saying I do or I don't. How many of the I do's are still existing in holy matrimony? Here are the Love Is Blind couples from every season who are still together.
Season 1 — Lauren Speed-Hamilton and Cameron Hamilton
Cameron and Lauren were the couple whose chemistry felt the strongest. Theirs wasn't the fastest engagement, which I think helps the chances of any would-be Love Is Blind contestants. Today, the two are still going strong, with Lauren telling Distractify in February 2024, "I think that we've learned that when we're our best selves, it helps our marriage to be in its best state as well. Continuing to cheer each other on, push each other to reach our dreams, and really support each other in that has really proven to help the health of us individually and our marriage. It's the strongest when both parties operate in their best selves."
Season 1 — Amber Pike and Matt Barnett
Not only were Amber and Matt (aka Barnett) the very first couple to get engaged on the show, but they were also the first couple to get tangled up in a love triangle. Jessica Batten had eyes, or rather ears, for Barnett but he ultimately chose Amber. That created some tension outside the pods. Today, Amber and Barnett are as happy as ever, with Amber posting a sweet Instagram post from Valentine's Day 2024 with the caption: "My funny Valentine, in the little moments and the big, being with you makes my heart happy."
Season 3 — Alexa Alfia and Brennon Lemieux
As you can see, I skipped right over Season 2 because no one made it out of that one betrothed. Season 3, however, found a near-perfect couple in Brennon and Alexa. I remember being somewhat annoyed by how sanctimonious they both were about their relationship, but I guess I have egg on my face because here we are. Not even Brennon's pre-show assault charge could split these two up. And in early 2024, the couple announced they were expecting a baby.
Season 3 — Colleen Reed and Matt Bolton
I didn't think these crazy kids were gonna make it. Matt was cheated on by an ex and his trust issues came to a head when he yelled at Colleen after she was told by Season 3 castmate Cole Barnett that physically, she was more his type. This resulted in Matt loudly chastising Colleen for not being, in his opinion, firm enough when it came to Matt being "her man." Obviously they worked things out and took things slow in the real world. It was reported by People that after two years of marriage, Colleen and Matt moved in together June 2023.
Season 4 — Tiffany Pennywell and Brett Brown
I never doubted Tiffany and Brett for a single second. They were open, honest, and respectful from the start. It was such a joy to witness them fall in love, and even though a pair of ill-fitting pants almost ruined the wedding for Brett, they are happily together today. These two always take the time to lift each other up. This relationship is a therapist's dream.
Season 4 — Chelsea Griffin and Kwame Appiah
The internet wasn't always rooting for Chelsea and Kwame. Part of their lack of fandom had to do with Kwame originally wanting Micah Lussier, who ended up with Paul Peden. That didn't last. Beyond that, fans of the show felt Chelsea and Kwame's relationship was superficial and, in particular, didn't think Chelsea understood Kwame. Obviously they were wrong. While chatting with People in September 2023, the couple said they are looking forward to a life together filled with possibility.
Season 4 — Zack Goytowski and Bliss Poureetezadi
Zack originally went for Season 4 villain Irina Solomonova but she was cold and not affectionate on their honeymoon. He'd connected with Bliss in the pods but went with Irina because he "trusted her the most." Big mistake! He was able to finally meet Bliss in the real world during the season, and she graciously agreed to give it a go. As she later recalled to Distractify in April 2023, “I truly deeply, deeply fell in love with him in the pods and I felt like I knew that this was my person without a shadow of a doubt. Like I felt it in my bones." In November 2023, the couple announced they were expecting a baby.
Season 5 — Lydia Arleen and James Milton Johnson
Lydia and James (aka Milton) faced some naysayers on their path to love — namely, Lydia's ex Uche who also appeared on the show and claimed that Lydia had been basically stalking him — but Lydia and Milton persevered. Though Lydia said in October 2023 that they have a long-distance marriage, the couple appears to still be going strong.
Season 6 — Amy Cortés and Johnny McIntyre
Amy and Johnny were quickly the fan-favorite couple in Season 6. They were drama-free and totally adorable from the start. As expected, they successfully made it out of the pods engaged and — despite a little bit of a hiccup regarding birth control — got married at the end of the season. Though we'll find out for sure what their status is when the reunion drops in April 2024, we have a feeling these two are in it for the long haul.
