Although everybody knows a romantic relationship requires attraction, communication, effort, mutual trust, and respect to be successful, a forever connection is still fleeting for many. That’s because they often end up focusing solely on the physical or tangible aspects, owing to the standards of modern life, which is precisely why Netflix’s ‘Love is Blind’ has been so relevant. It gives participants space to lead from the heart, resulting in several finding their life partners as their foundation has been rooted in emotions, and season 10 of the production is no different.
Emma and Mike Ended Up Choosing Different Paths
From the moment Emma Betsinger and Mike Gibney met in the pods, they not only got into a natural flow of conversation but also had insane chemistry that drew them into one another. The only problem they encountered, and continued to face upon getting engaged, was the fact that she wasn’t sure if she ever wanted to have kids, whereas he was more than ready for fatherhood. He never pushed her into anything, though, despite making his stance clear, and those appreciative, kind, as well as thoughtful discussions are just part of why Emma chose to say yes at the altar. However, owing to his fair share of concerns, he ended up politely saying no.
It appears as if Emma and Mike have since tried to get on the same page, but they haven’t been able to translate their love for one another into the real world. Hence, they are choosing to continue to focus on their respective careers. Emma is a University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire business graduate currently serving as a Merchant at the global brand Abercrombie & Fitch, where she has been for around 7 years as of writing. Meanwhile, Mike is a Ramapo College of New Jersey Law & Society graduate based in Cleveland, Ohio. He serves as a Vehicle Sales Manager at Ryder System and a Mortgage Loan Officer. As for their personal standing, they both seem deeply passionate about their family, friends, the outdoors, and travel. We should also mention that Mike is now happily in love with a woman named Tara, with whom he has been involved with for around 7 months.
Though Bri and Connor Decided Not to Marry, They Are Still Together
Bri “Breezy” McNees and Connor Spies’ journey in the show was definitely one for the books as they bonded over “Mr. Brightside” long before surviving Chris trying to come in between them. They were a slow burn, but the way they navigated challenges, insecurities, and obstacles together at every step made it clear they had mutual feelings of attraction, care, as well as love. However, just two days before they were to walk down the aisle, she confessed that she had realized during her dress fitting she wasn’t ready to say yes, despite knowing his answer would be “I do.”
Therefore, Bri and Connor chose not to tie the knot, even though they still had genuine love for one another, which persists even today as they are still dating. Their status is evident in the way they continue to flirt with one another on social media and in interviews, plus they are now next-door neighbors. Coming to their personal standing, Bri is a University of Michigan Psychology & Sociology graduate, a Senior Merchant at Bath & Body Works, and a cancer research philanthropist. On the other hand, Connor is an Ohio University Finance graduate and an Enterprise Account Manager at Budget Dumpster. We should also mention that they both seem to hail from rather tight-knit families, so it appears as if their loved ones are a big priority in their lives, too, right along with giving back to the community.
Brittany and Devonta Have Parted Ways For Good
While Brittany Elena Wicker and Devonta Anderson initially seemed like a great match, things changed after they got engaged, as their communication styles and physical magnetism just didn’t gel. The fact that they later brought up very different opinions on how to manage their finances and couldn’t seem to understand or give into each other’s love languages also proved difficult. Thus, following their journey, their decision to say “no” on the morning of their wedding day, and their subsequent online footprints, they are currently leading independent, individual lives.
In addition to being a certified labor and delivery nurse specializing in high-risk cases and currently employed at Alto Health Care Staffing, Brittany is also an advanced esthetician. In other words, the Mount Carmel College graduate is the personification of beauty and brains, maintaining both while also being a dedicated friend and a family-oriented individual. As for Devonta, the Kent State University graduate kick-started his career as an Audit Associate at Marcum LLP before evolving into a creative entrepreneur. Besides being a loan officer and sports enthusiast, he is the heart and soul behind DVO Prints, through which he sells his original designs. It’s also imperative to note that he is now engaged to someone else and is expecting a child with them.
Ashley and Alex Lead Completely Different Lives Today
Although Ashley Carpenter and Alex Henderson had a very fiery beginning to their engagement, despite them not being each other’s usual type, things cooled down not long after. They differed in their expectations for the future, what they wanted to know about past relationships, and even in several smaller ways, such as how to manage or organize their home together. This resulted in more than a few arguments between them, making it clear they were struggling with trust and vulnerability to the point that they couldn’t even build a solid foundation. Hence, they ultimately chose to say goodbye at the altar and are currently leading completely separate lives.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematical Statistics & Probability from Ohio University (class of 2019), Ashley has established an incredible career in Financial Sales. Whenever she is not working, she seems to love dedicating her time and effort to her local community, family, friends, and, most importantly, her fur baby, Zoe. She also truly believes in the power of kindness and selflessness, so she makes sure to volunteer for different causes whenever possible in the hopes of at least affecting one person’s day or life.
Coming to Alex, the Wake Forest University student-athlete who became the first goalie to be drafted into Major League Soccer in 2017, is a professional coach and day trader. His professional soccer career sadly ended before it even began, owing to four knee surgeries, but he later managed to get back on his feet in a different way – he chose the world of finance. Alex is still passionate about sports, which is why he is actively coaching the next generation of soccer athletes, but his bread and butter today is day trading through his brand OnlyFunds. He is also the host of the ‘Play Life Beautifully’ podcast and is currently focused on building a non-profit foundation called The Calm.
Amber and Jordan Sadly Called Their Union Quits After 4 Months
One of Jordan Faeth’s only dealbreakers before he entered the pods was women with children. Regardless, he ended up falling head over heels in love with Amber Morrison, a free-spirited single mother. The latter had made it clear to him early on that her daughter, Emma, was her priority, only for it to become the biggest point of attraction for him. He loved how caring, devoted, kind, and selfless she was to her family. However, things changed a little for them in the real world, as he worried about being a potential stepfather, she refused to introduce him to her little girl, and numerous other small issues arose.
From the way Amber and Jordan navigated adversities as well as communicated their feelings, it came as no surprise when they decided to work things out upon saying “I do.” Yet, after 4 months of genuinely trying and several personal differences, they called it quits. The Ohio residents tried to lead relatively integrated lives despite having drastically different, demanding professions that took up a majority of their days, but it didn’t pan out. Amber is a PRN Certified Nurse Practitioner currently working in the Department of Primary Care and Family Medicine at Knox Community Hospital, whereas Jordan is a remote yet full-time Account Executive in Data Security at OpenTex. Now, while the former is dedicating herself to her career as well as her daughter Emma, the latter seems to be focused on his career and his fur baby Beau.
Christine and Vic Continue to Lead a Life Shaped by Love and Faith
The moment Christine Lham and Victor “Vic” St. John met in the pods, they connected over their shared belief system, familial values, and passion for helping their communities. What really melted her heart, though, was his sincerity when he said, “I can’t see you, but I see you,” a sentiment that persisted even outside the pods. Honestly, their emotional connection, mutual admiration, and trust in one another were evident in everything they did, even when discussing raising interracial children, so we believe they both said “I do” at the altar.
Since then, Christine and Vic’s love has only grown as they have started building a life together in Columbus with the same goal of forever through thick and thin, under the careful care of God. Regarding their individual professional standing, the former is a Speech-Language Pathologist, specializing in assessing, diagnosing, and treating communication disorders across all age groups. On the other hand, the Brooklyn, New York, native, now a resident of Columbus, Ohio, is an Assistant Professor at The Ohio State University and a Research Scientist at Child Trends. We should mention that the healthcare professional and the Ph.D holder are also fitness enthusiasts who deeply focus on their mental health, spend quality time with loved ones, and offer aid to those in need.
Jessica and Chris Have Not Rekindled Their Romance
Jessica Barrett and Chris Fusco had built a solid bond in the pods and during the getaway, but the dynamic between them changed almost as soon as they returned to the real world. After conversations about her not being his usual type, who does “Pilates every day,” and him moving into her 4-bedroom house after marriage, he disappeared for over 48 hours before returning to bristle at her need for “constant communication.” He then brought up their intimacy issues and stated it was because she didn’t work out every day, driving her to assert that she is not going to change who she is or beg for his love before walking away.
Jessica and Chris broke up on less than amicable terms, but neither seems to regret what transpired, as they are leading happy, healthy lives today, surrounded by loved ones. The former is a doctor specializing in infectious diseases, holding a medical degree and national board certifications in both Infectious Disease and Internal Medicine. So, she was indeed on the front lines during the COVID-19 pandemic, which she says she got through only with the support of her parents, sister, and two bulldogs, Tuco and Butters. She is also currently head over heels in love with fellow co-star and ER doctor, Haramol Gill. As for Chris, he is a former army veteran, a professional account executive, and a proud fitness enthusiast who goes to the gym every day and runs marathons from time to time.
