We Still Can't Believe These 8 'Love Is Blind' Rumors Were Actually True liennhi

   


Love is Blind
 has yielded tons of successful marriages from its eight seasons to date, many of which are still going strong, including Matt Barnett and Amber Pike from season one who just had their first child. But that doesn’t mean every couple works out. There have been many break-ups, heartache, and scandal throughout the show.

The show and its cast have also been the subject of plenty of rumors. These usually begin once the show airs and people come out of the woodwork with posts and TikToks calling out cast members for bad behavior or untruths. Some of these rumors are cleared up during the reunion specials, others don’t start until the season is long over and new stories start to pour out. Some of the biggest Love is Blind rumors really turned heads, and some were even confirmed to be true.

Whether these rumors are simply conjured up as payback or there’s truth to them, following all the talk about Joey and Sara possibly dating, stories began to fly that Ben and Monica are dating. It’s possible this is just contrived to get their names in the headlines, or perhaps they bonded over the shared betrayal of two people they called friends.

Ben said on the Girl Please Podcast that they are not dating but are just friends. “People tend to kind of gravitate to other people,” he said of the group from the show, “and so I’d like to say Monica is probably one of my closest friends from the cast.” He did admit, however, when asked if he was trolling fans, that they are just having fun making content together and “letting the world take it as they want.” Interestingly, however, he added that they had a connection in the pods that wasn’t shown in the episodes and that he isn’t ruling out a relationship in the future. “Obviously, there is chemistry there.”
