Sigh, People Are Calling Out “Love Is Blind” — Again — For Casting “Unserious” Men
Iyanna broke down in tears in a TikTok video as she discussed how heartbroken she was, especially as she sadly faced cruel mockery from the public when the split was announced. Before he proposed to Iyanna, Jarrette was emotionally invested in a different contestant, who turned him down.
“And as much as people laugh at how long we were married, I think my expectations made it real, my hope made it real. My effort made it real, my tears made it real,” Iyanna said.
“I’m crying for that girl that I was at the beginning of this marriage. I was so hopeful, and I had less baggage, and I was optimistic, and I was healed,” she said. “I’m crying for that marriage that I thought could work; I’m crying for that man I believed he was… That man he convinced me he was in the beginning.”
Iyanna’s vulnerability left several LIB viewers devastated and sparked a discussion about the heartbreak endured by some contestants of the show. In fact, some social media users wound up branding the series “televised trauma” and calling for the whole thing to end.
