The fourth season of Love Is Blind, Netflix’s hit social experiment turned dating reality show, recently came to a close, having delivered another satisfying round of awkward pod chat, partner-swapping, relationship drama, and for a select few couples, a happily-ever-after ending.
While Chelsea and Kwame were able to overcome the initial tension in their marriage (due to his mother’s reluctance to accept her), and Tiffany and Brett continue to be the golden couple of the season, other cast members have taken their time away from the show as an opportunity to reflect on their behavior. “Mean girl” Irina has apologized for the way she acted towards her fellow contestants and towards Micah in particular, and Jackie made certain to clear up the facts about the end of her relationship with Marshall during the reunion.
All of that drama may have sated some viewers, but for most, it just left them wanting more, and now the fanbase is eagerly awaiting the next season.
Will there be a Season 5 of Love Is Blind?
We already know for sure that a fifth season of Love Is Blind is on the way: back in March 2022 when Season 4 was announced, Netflix confirmed that the show had been renewed for Season 5 as well. And during promo for Season 4, host Nick Lachey actually revealed that Season 5 is already in the can.
Who will host Season 5?
Nick Lachey and his wife Vanessa Lachey will return to co-host the series. In an interview with Women’s Health prior to the release of Season 4, Nick and promised that it will be different to anything we’ve seen on the show before.
“Every single one has been so different from the others,” he said, “so that’s what makes it interesting, what makes it intriguing for us allows us to approach every single season with a fresh attitude and fresh perspective.”
Where will Season 5 take place?
While we know that the season has already been shot, there’s no word on where. Season 1 was filmed in Atlanta, while Season 2 was filmed in Chicago, Season 3 in Dallas, and Season 4 in Seattle. So really, any big city with a high population of singles could be a decent candidate.
When will Season 5 of Love Is Blind be released?
No release date for Season 5 has been confirmed yet, although the fact that Season 3 was released eight months after Season 2, and Season 4 began streaming just six months after Season 3, it is possible that we’ll be getting more episodes on Netflix as early as this fall.
