Leo and Brittany, stars of Love Is Blind, are breaking their silence following the end of their engagement, sharing insights into their relationship and the challenges they faced. In separate interviews, the couple discussed the circumstances that led to their decision to part ways.
Brittany revealed to People that after leaving the pods, “the physical connection just simply wasn’t there.” This comes after viewers witnessed their dramatic reveal, which concluded with a note stating they were “not one of the six couples chosen by producers” to continue their journey in Mexico. Following their time on the show, they took a trip to Miami, where they ultimately decided to end their engagement weeks later.
Leo echoed Brittany’s sentiments, stating, “We had a really wonderful time in Miami, but we just decided that we didn’t see ourselves really proceeding with a full engagement leading to marriage. We’re just better off as friends.”
The show’s executive producer provided additional context, explaining that decisions were made based on which couples appeared genuinely committed. He noted that Leo and Brittany seemed the least likely to move forward, leading to their exclusion from further filming in Cabo.
Fans reacted strongly to the couple’s reveal, which Leo described as “awkward.” He sensed that while he was invested in the relationship, Brittany wasn’t as enthusiastic, saying, “I think she was not quite as into me.” Brittany echoed this feeling, stating, “It was just an intuition I can’t explain. It was solely just this isn’t my husband, and now I’ve got to figure this out.”
Many viewers were surprised by Brittany and Leo’s engagement, especially after Leo’s intense conversation with another contestant, Hannah. In a recent interview, Hannah reflected on Leo’s character, stating, “He’s a great guy with so much to give. He’s a little dorky sometimes, but he’s a genuine dude.”
Hannah also described the emotional toll of filming, noting that watching Leo’s reactions in the pods was difficult for many. She advised anyone feeling trapped in a similar situation to “get out of there.”
Regarding Brittany’s decision to accept Leo’s proposal, Hannah expressed her support, emphasizing, “It’s her relationship, it’s her life.”
As for Leo, Hannah mentioned they haven’t been in touch since filming, leaving uncertainty about their future interactions. The couple’s candid reflections shed light on the complexities of their experience and the reality of navigating love in the spotlight.
