10 Best ‘Love Is Blind’ Couples, Ranked
We might have just witnessed the messiest Love Is Blind season in history, complete with cheating scandals, a paternity reveal, and a condom debate that infuriated millions across the globe! It’s a tough time to be a fan of reality TV — or to be a single woman looking for love.
So to keep us believing in love and swiping on Tinder, let’s turn our attention to the couples that prove love really is blind — and respectful. These couples not only made it out of the pods, but they headed to the altar and are still married at this point in time. They might have been misunderstood during their tenure on the show, but they’re happy to prove us wrong with their soppy, cliche love story. Saddle up for a ranking of the 10 best couples in Love Is Blind history, including the non-American spinoffs like Love Is Blind: UK and Love Is Blind: Japan.

Love Is Blind, Season 7 Reunion, October 30, 9/8c, Netflix
10. Lydia and Milton
This is a very controversial way to start this list of successful Love s Blind couples, as they were not a fan favorite… by any means. However, given that they were the only couple left standing by the end of Season 5, it feels wrong to exclude them from the narrative. The pair did bicker during their time on the show, with a jaw-dropping shouting match in an art gallery after hours, but they also kind of worked. Their biggest issue was Lydia’s emotional approach and Milton’s calm, robotic logic, but opposites attract, we suppose? They totally geeked out together about geology and truly seemed to be themselves together. Their seven-year age difference was listed as an issue by everyone but themselves. Milton and Lydia are still married, and time will tell if love rocks for them.
9. Nicole and Benaiah
This couple is like the British equivalent of Zac and Bliss, only a little less fairytale and a little more hippy. Nicole initially got engaged to a different contestant, Sam, but ended the engagement within days. She then met up with Benaiah, and the pair rekindled their romance. They got engaged and joined the other couples in Greece just in time for some tzatziki and the group mixer. Their biggest hurdles came in the form of Benaiah letting go of his nomadic lifestyle, his family forgiving Nicole, and his rage toward Sam. But at the altar, Benaiah acknowledged their hiccups and explained that “rough seas make for good sailors,” and the pair tied the knot!
8. Chelsea and Kwame
Another couple we wouldn’t have guessed earning a spot on this list, but first appearances aren’t everything, especially as an audience member. Kwame and Chelsea initially ended up in a love triangle, as Kwame was also dating Micah in the pods. But Kwame was very into Chelsea and even wrote her a song in the pods a la Ken’s serenade to Barbie. Chelsea knew exactly who she was and what she wanted from Kwame, which was a bit daunting. But look, he seems to be into it. He moved cities for her, readjusted his travel dreams, and even walked her white crusty dog. If it works for you!
7. Johnny and Amy
Unfortunately, Johnny and Amy tend not to be remembered for the right reasons. They had a contraception conversation to rival Ramses and Marissa’s awkward discussion on this season, namely in that Johnny didn’t know what a vasectomy was… So this couple publicly announced that they were waiting to have sex after marriage, and they stuck to their guns. That’s not why they’re the best couple, as thirsty couples barely making it through the first date can work out just as well. Johnny and Amy bonded over anime, travel, and being close to their families. They honestly feel like that couple that gets engaged right after high school and somehow defeats the odds to make it to their 60-year wedding anniversary. They literally post photos kissing in front of the Eiffel Tower, which is somehow cuter than cringe.
6. Jasmine and Bobbie
Another couple from the first season of Love Is Blind: UK giving us hope that British accents can whisper sweet nothings in our ears. This is a classic case of him absolutely simping for her, and Jasmine finally finding her good guy. Jasmine discussed her previous issues with trust and how previous partners had been unfaithful, and Bobbie confirmed that he was all in. The couple hit a particularly nasty bump known as Jasmine’s mom, who was not Team Bobbie, to say the least. But despite her close relationship with her mom, Jasmine followed her heart and told Bobbie at the altar that “love shouldn’t be combative, love should be accepting and kind” (a reminder to us all). The pair are happily married, and apparently, her mom came around to her son-in-law eventually.
5. Motomi and Ryotaro
Let’s hop on a flight across the globe for our next couple: Ryotaro and Motomi! Featured in Season 1 of Love Is Blind: Japan, these two weren’t looking for a traditional marriage. They bonded over this fact in the pods, as well as their mutual love of chinchillas (relatable). The pair soon scribbled romantic letters to one another that could rival Shakespeare’s best work. But actions speak louder than words, so we knew it was love when hairstylist Ryotaro dyed his blond frosted tips back to their natural black to impress Motomi’s father. The pair not only tied the knot but announced in November 2022 that they were expecting their first child together.
4. Brett and Tiffany
These two were overshadowed in their season thanks to bombshells like Jackie dumping Marshall and Micah and Irina’s mean girl energy, but they were such a sweet and wholesome duo. Their most significant rumblings came from Tiffany falling asleep in the pods while Brett confessed his love to her (sleepy girl problems) and Brett’s insane sneaker collection, but they managed to overcome these and ultimately say “I do” at the altar. They are still married, living in Portland, and post the cutest content online. Their sweetest moment was when Brett gifted Tiffany the photographs that he had taken of her, which they then hung up in their new home.
3. Zack and Bliss
Now, we’ve reached the second couple on the list who didn’t get engaged on the pods. Zack unfortunately made the wrong choice in the pods and proposed to Irina… though the couple didn’t even make it out of Mexico. Zack begged Bliss for a second chance, and while she was initially hesitant, they got engaged almost immediately! Yep, he proposed to two women within three weeks, and their wedding was included in the season finale. Obviously, the pair both said “I do.” Their first dance as a couple made us weep hysterically, and they welcomed their daughter, Galileo, earlier this year. They are such a wholesome couple that overcame rocky beginnings to prove love is blind, love is patient, and love is goofy as hell.
2. Alexa and Brennon
We stand firmly behind Alexa and Brennon as the second-best Love Is Blind couple, and we are ready to duel for their honor. Alexa and Brennon experienced almost no hiccups during their time in and out of the pods. In fact, at the reunion, they shared that they had their first actual fight post-marriage, and it was about dishes! The biggest hurdles for Alexa and Brennon were their different cultures, as Alexa was a proud, wealthy Jewish woman, and Brennon came from humbler, vaguely cowboy roots. But the pair embraced each other’s families and lifestyles and proved love truly is enough. Was love blind? It’s tough to say, but we can comfortably confirm that Brennon was obsessed with his hot wife and couldn’t compliment her enough. The couple shared their struggles with IVF and welcomed their daughter, Vienna, this summer.
1. Lauren and Cameron
Rounding off our list of the best Love Is Blind couples ever, we’ve got the Hamiltons! No, not like F1 Hamilton, as the only racing these two are doing is to the top of the best seller lists. Lauren and Cameron are an OG couple from Season 1, showing us that love can go the distance, even when it was initially blindfolded. Not only have they stood the test of time and proved their love consistently on their YouTube Channel, but they’ve even written a book about their love! It’s called Leap of Faith: Finding Love the Modern Way, and it came out in 2021. Lauren and Cameron are fan favorites and can be found at the top of any Reddit list related to the show.
