5 questions we need the "Love Is Blind" reunion episode to answer
- The season 5 reunion of "Love Is Blind" premieres on Sunday.
- There's a lot of drama participants will need to unpack.
This season of "Love Is Blind" was one for the books — more couples than ever were shown breaking up before reaching their wedding-day decisions.
Fans also clearly had a lot of feelings about this season, as evidenced by the flood of comments on Netflix's Instagram posts about the show.
While the reunion is usually only about an hour long, we have a few topics that we'd really like to see covered. Here are 5 questions that the "Love Is Blind" reunion episode needs to answer.
Are Stacy and Izzy back together?
This notorious season 5 couple seemed most in sync when they were discussing their hatred of fellow contestant Johnie Maraist, but it was still a bit of a shock when Stacy Snyder turned down Izzy Zapata at the altar.
However, the two shared a kiss after their breakup, and based on recent Instagram activity, they seem to at least be on friendly terms.
Couples' current relationships (or lack thereof) are usually addressed at the beginning of the reunion episodes, and hopefully we'll hear exactly where Stacy and Izzy's relationship stands pretty quickly.
What happened between Izzy and Johnie after the show ended?
After breaking things off with Johnie in the pods to propose to Stacy, Izzy garnered backlash amongst some viewers when he confronted Johnie at a cast-wide barbecue, accusing her of being "sketchy."
The interaction left Johnie in tears, and Izzy later admitted on a recent episode of "The Viall Files" podcast that he regretted how he spoke to his former flame. He also revealed that he apologized to Johnie, and implied that the two had talked things over after the show.
The two were clearly on such good terms after that conversation that Johnie felt comfortable commenting on one of Izzy's Instagram posts last year. Currently, she doesn't follow him on Instagram, which leaves us with a lot of questions. Mostly: what happened between Izzy and Johnie after the show wrapped filming, and where do they stand today?
Did Izzy ever end up buying real plates?
One of Stacy's biggest gripes with Izzy was the fact that he used paper plates while eating at home. (Oh, and also the fact that he had a trophy drawer in his bathroom full of miscellaneous items from past hookups, dubbed the "lost and found.") Izzy's paper plate habit seemed innocuous enough, especially for those of us who hate doing dishes, but Stacy took serious issue with his choice in dishware.
Given that they didn't end up tying the knot, we couldn't help but wonder: was Izzy ever able to eat peacefully off paper plates again, or did he switch to grown-up dishes instead?
Who is Johnie's current boyfriend?
During the infamous cast barbecue, it's revealed that Johnie and fellow contestant Chris Fox have been dating since the pods. They seem quite happy together, despite attempts by Izzy and Stacy to cast Johnie as a villain in front of Chris.
But it's unclear whether or not Johnie and Chris are still together — they don't follow each other on Instagram. And recently, Johnie has been teasing her new man on her Instagram stories, but hasn't revealed his face or identity yet.
It doesn't seem like Chris and Johnie are still together, but we might be wrong in that assumption, so hopefully this gets cleared up during the reunion as well.
What have Uche and Aaliyah been up to since the show ended?
Uche Okoroha has been vocal about how he feels Netflix misrepresented his relationships on "Love Is Blind," including his attempts to pursue a romance with Aaliyah Cosby once they both left the pods. He was also embroiled in drama with contestant Lydia Velez Gonzalez, whom he dated before the show.
Aaliyah revealed in a recent interview with Today.com that she and Uche did, in fact, try to date after the pod stage of the experiment ended, but they soon realized they weren't a good match.
However, we'd love to hear more about how things between them played out, and if Uche still has feelings about his overall edit on the show.
