Another season of “Love is Blind” has come to an end, and after 12 episodes, fans of the Netflix reality show finally have answers about who said “I do” and who left their partner at the altar.
It turns out that Chelsea and Jimmy didn’t even make it to the altar; Jimmy rejected the 31-year-old flight attendant during her last date. After Chelsea revealed that she could see herself marrying him (“I see a life with you,” she said), the 28-year-old software salesman revealed that she wasn’t on the same page.
“I love you to death, I want a relationship with you and I really want us to work. But I don’t want to go to the altar,” he said. “Can’t.”
After the Season 6 third-place finalists’ quick breakup, a joyfully tearful AD, 33, made her way down a rose-lined hallway to determine her fate with Clay, leaving the altar in tears for a completely different reason. different. Once the wedding guests dispersed, Clay, 31, revealed to AD that her refusal to get married was a “game decision.”
“It’s irresponsible of me to say yes at this time when I’m not ready to give you 100% and you wouldn’t want that,” he told her.
A fairy tale ending for Johnny and Amy
After these relationships dissolved (most of the episode focused on Clay and AD), Johnny, the 28-year-old account executive, and Amy, the 28-year-old e-commerce specialist, earned their fairytale ending. .
Their limited screen time in the season finale reflected how perfect the two seemed together. – which doesn’t make it a very exciting reality show. Despite being the only couple to get married in Season 6, Amy and Johnny’s love story was wrapped up in an elegant bow in 20 minutes, half the time spent on Clay and AD’s non-wedding in the episode.

Amy and Johnny agree that the issue of birth control was their biggest obstacle.
In an interview shortly before the season 6 premiere, Johnny revealed that their relationship was “very fluid” because “Amy was very open about a lot of different things. He would basically interrogate her to test her and see where she stood on certain issues.” “And she was really trying to see where I was coming from in asking it and then being able to answer it,” he tells USA TODAY.
“It wasn’t just like, ‘Oh, you asked this? Well, I guess this way. We should fight about it. It was very open and transparent.’
Johnny acknowledged, however, that the couple “definitely” faced challenges.
“I feel like one of the biggest ones was the issue of birth control, because we both didn’t agree on that,” she said. “But at the same time, being able to have an open conversation about it, we both felt comfortable sharing how we felt about it. That’s where we really grew as people.”
In episode 8, the couple revealed that they were abstaining from sex due to Johnny’s concerns about an accidental pregnancy that they would not be financially prepared for. Although he considered a vasectomy, in episode 11 he was surprised to learn that it is not “as easily reversible as he thought” and was not interested in clinical trials of a male birth control pill.
Amy agreed that this was a “serious” conversation.
“It’s not something we could have solved in a day,” he told USA TODAY. “It was a series of ongoing conversations that we had to have to see if we could be compatible. I feel like that was the most challenging (obstacle) we had.”

Many viewers took to social media to debate Johnny and Amy’s conversations about birth control.
In episode 11, the couple talked about vasectomies and male and female birth control pills.
“I thought it was a quick little tie-up, put a bow on something and that’s it. And all of a sudden I see (what a vasectomy is) and I’m like, ‘Maybe not,'” Johnny said. . “I don’t know if it was something that people talked about all the time in school during normal sex ed, what to do. But yeah, I never really knew about it.”
In episode 8, she acknowledged that “preventing pregnancy is not just the girl’s job.” She also mentioned that almost all of her previous partners had taken the pill and, although Amy had considered it before and discussed it with her doctors, she was not ready to take medications that would affect her hormones.
A TikToker faked the chat, joking about Johnny not knowing what a condom is.while another seriously expressed his gratitude for Amy setting boundaries by saying she didn’t want to start taking the birth control pill “yet.”
TikTok user @healthillie was “frustrated,” noting in a video that “your only options for birth control are not taking birth control or having your partner get a vasectomy.”
After the episode aired, a X published user“Can a family planning representative contact Johnny and Amy? I’ve never seen two (adults) be so confused about birth control.”
