Still, some contestants — together with Jackelina, who had promised to “bring receipts” — didn’t display up in individual. And the reunion, hosted by way of Nick and Vanessa Lachey, left off the identical approach as the closing episode: with 3 “I dos” and one “I don’t.” Plus, there was once that complete factor about Netflix breaking down and now not having the ability to display the reunion at 8 p.m. Eastern time as anticipated.

So if you fell asleep or determined to observe “Succession” as an alternative, right here’s what you ignored.

That leaves Micah and Paul (who stay damaged up, regardless that they dated for a while after he stated “I don’t”), and Marshall (who’s it seems that nonetheless unmarried) and Jackelina (who sparked up a dating with considered one of her different connections, Josh). Jackelina and Josh were in combination for a yr, moved in in combination and now proportion custody of a canine and a fish named Rick.

A significant storyline for the couple was once the preliminary sadness from Kwame’s mom, who didn’t attend the wedding ceremony. But his siblings (no, Barbara wasn’t a hired actress; she’s if truth be told Kwame’s sister) got here in to avoid wasting the day and promised the groom that their mom beloved him and would sooner or later come round.

It grew to become out to be true.

Jackelina and Josh didn’t attend the reunion in individual — as an alternative, sitting down for a prior Zoom interview with Vanessa to set the document instantly: There was once no dishonest, Jackelina stated, including that she’d long past on a espresso date with Josh after she and Marshall had damaged up.

She nonetheless has the ring, regardless that — which Marshall needs again as a result of “she doesn’t deserve that symbol of my love,” he stated.

Is there going to be a ‘Love is Blind’ child?

You may need to look forward to this one.

Though Vanessa requested a gazillion instances — “not to put pressure on you,” she stated — it doesn’t seem like diapers and strollers will likely be on the {couples}’ buying groceries lists anytime quickly. Though — and naturally, to not upload extra force [cue: eye roll] — “Love is Blind” season 3 contestant Bartise made a cameo with his baby boy and requested the identical.

Chelsea and Kwame stated they’ll “let it happen when it has to happen.” Brett and Tiffany stated they’re taking part in each and every different’s corporate earlier than making the leap.
