Love Is Blind: Italy Reunion saw Karen and Nicola opening up about their connection. The two got married during the show's finale. However, it didn't work out between Karen and Nicola.

When the hosts asked them to share what had happened, they recalled their intense arguments. Karen was the first one to share how it all started.

While waiting for a document to legalize their marriage, Karen booked a five-star hotel for Nicola. However, he wanted something simple. The two talked about finances, and it turned into a huge argument.

"This argument arose over an issue that, from what I could gather, was as if he felt somewhat belittled by this whole financial matter. And then, from there, a truly nasty argument came up, in which he said some very, very, very mean things. Back then, I loved him so much. Truly, so much. It was very hard because I had already spoken to my son about this, and I had already told him that Nicola was coming," shared Karen.

Love Is Blind: Italy Reunion: Karen recalls how she booked a five-star hotel for Nicola, and their "finances" discussion led to an intense argument

Love Is Blind: Italy hosts recalled Nicola and Karen getting married. But they had to wait for a document to legalize their marriage. It was supposed to arrive from the Brazilian embassy.

"You were waiting for a document that was supposed to come from the Brazilian embassy, and in the meantime, however, something happened that led to a deep division, I would say. Almost a breakup. Right, Karen?" asked the host.

In her response, Love Is Blind: Italy star Karen shared that after their wedding, she was in Rome and Nicola was in Milan. Because of the distance, she booked a hotel for him.

"While we were talking and organizing this, these three days in Rome, he said, "Karen, don't get anything fancy. I mean, don't worry. Get something normal. And I still got a hotel that was...five stars. Of course, very nice because I didn't care."

Soon, they got into an argument over their financial matter. At that time, Nicola said some harsh words. Despite her loving him very much, it was hard for her. It was because she had already told her son that Nicola was coming.

"And at that moment we had this argument. I was expecting him to at least...you know, a call to apologize the next day, or to figure out how to have a conversation," added Karen.

But there was no call or apology from Nicola. She then told him that it was over from her side because he said some "way too serious" words and didn't apologize to her.

Later, when the hosts asked Nicola, he replied that he misunderstood things. He added that he took Karen's talk about finance the wrong way.
