Love is Blind finale rewrites franchise rules with zero “I dos”

An unusual event in the history of Love is Blind occurred when no couples were married in the unexpected outcome of Season 9. The climax shocked both the studio and the audience, despite the characters following the well-known route of pods, engagement, and wedding preparations.
