Where 'Love Is Blind' season 5 stars Izzy and Stacy are now
- Warning: Spoilers ahead for the "Love Is Blind" season 5 finale and reunion.
- Stacy and Izzy got engaged, but later got into several disagreements during the season.
"Love Is Blind" stars Stacy Snyder and Izzy Zapata were one of the only couples this season who managed to form a strong enough connection in the pods to warrant an engagement.
But that's not to say that the couple didn't have their ups and downs this season. Izzy and Stacy's feelings about Izzy's ex from the pods Johnie were a point of discussion and occasionally tension between the two, and Stacy wasn't shy about sharing her concerns regarding Izzy's finances and choice of dishware.
Stacy and Izzy didn't end up getting married — as revealed on episode 10, Izzy says yes at the altar, while Stacy admits that she needs more time before she can tie the knot. The two inexplicably share a passionate kiss after the exchange while their families look on.
During the reunion episode, the couple give fans an update on their relationship, revealing that they remained completely separated after the wedding. Izzy says he didn't talk to Stacy for almost a year after she turned him down at the altar.
But the two told hosts Nick and Vanessa Lachey that after running into each other at a Houston bar nearly a year after their wedding, they began talking again. However, they both emphasized that they're not together currently, and are both seeing other people.
Stacy and Izzy's timeline of events would make sense given their social media interactions post-wedding
The two still follow one another on Instagram as of October 2023, and the first post of Izzy's that Stacy liked was from June 2022. That would've been a few months after "Love Is Blind" season 5 began filming, according to what cohost Vanessa Lachey told E! News ahead of the season. But after that, there are seemingly no interactions between the two on Instagram — Johnie (whom Izzy also follows on Instagram) liked more of Izzy's posts in the latter half of 2022 than Stacy did, even commenting on his birthday post.
Given that Stacy and Izzy say they weren't currently talking during this period, it makes sense that the two would limit their social media interactions.
Starting in June of this year, however, Stacy began liking Izzy's posts again. This, presumably, comes after they ran into each other during a night out and began talking platonically again.
A similar pattern plays out on Stacy's Instagram. Izzy liked a photo of Stacy's from March 2022, but didn't engage with any of her other posts (including a birthday post) until late May of this year, when he began consistently liking Stacy's photos again.
Stacy and Izzy are clearly on cordial terms, but they seem to have both moved on.
