On their own time! Love Is Blind couple Alexa Alfia and Brennon Lemieux want to start a family soon — but they aren’t rushing the process.
“[We’re] working and twerking on it,” Alexa, 27, exclusively told Us Weekly before Love Is Blind: After the Altar hit Netflix on Friday, February 10.

Like, we’re going out back. You know what I’m saying?”
He teased: “If I was in his
