Not a fairy tale. Despite falling in love in the pods, Love Is Blind stars Cole Barnett and Zanab Jaffrey‘s relationship was anything but a happy ending.
Love Is Blind’s Alexa Alfia Shouldn’t Be Groundbreaking

By Anyone who has watched a single reality dating show knows that the women on them tend to fit into a specific mold. That mold being “can participate in a Revolve fashion show-themed date.” And though some progress has been made toward casting non-white contestants, there’s been little to none when it comes to body diversity ().So when Alexa Alfia graced the pods on of Love Is Blind, she was a breath of fresh. Not only is the 27-year-old insurance agency owner from Dallas above a sample size, she’s also proudly Jewish.
For once, I could relate.Unfortunately, the first thing the show addresses is her body—but she doesn’t play into it. “When I look at myself, yeah I mean I could stand to lose a little weight,” she says, before adding, “Like I could, but I don’t necessarily want to. I’m very confident in who I am, and I deserve someone who understands that.”As a curvy Jewish gal myself, I’ve had a complicated relationship to my body since, well, forever.
I won’t get into the various sources of my insecurities, but let’s just say someone suggested I wear Spanx at my bat mitzvah. So I get why Alexa turned to Love Is Blind. For the uninitiated, the premise involves singles dating—and getting engaged—without knowing what their suitors look like.
Only once they say yes do they finally get to meet their betrothed IRL.In the pods, Alexa instantly bonded with Brennon Lemieux, a 30-year-old sales manager, over a mutual love of shakshuka. When she told him she came from a big Jewish family, he responded with complete acceptance. In 2022, interfaith couples , yet I speak from personal experience when I say not everyone is as open as Brennon.I also probably don’t need to tell you that in this country.
