Netflix’s Love Is Blind continues to serve up jaw-dropping revelations and spicy drama, long after the cameras stop rolling. Season 7’s most talked-about contestants, Nick Dorka and Leo Braudy, recently spilled some major tea at Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea live show on December 2, 2024, in New York City. From shady comments about an ex-fiancée’s transformation to debunking rumors of a lavish getaway, here’s what went down.
Nick Dorka Throws Shade at Hannah Jiles
Nick Dorka isn’t holding back when it comes to his ex-fiancée, Hannah Jiles. While many fans have praised Jiles for her impressive 75-pound weight loss since her Love Is Blind stint, Dorka had a few cutting words to share about her journey.
“Sure, she looks great now,” Dorka admitted during the live show. “But I’ve seen all of her, and let me tell you, there’s more to transformation than just looks.”
Ouch. According to Dorka, Jiles has work to do on her personality, adding, “Being physically attractive doesn’t make someone a transformed human being.”
Dorka also revealed that some former co-stars, including Marissa George and Katie Bollinger, had distanced themselves from Jiles. Even her own family, Dorka claimed, struggles to deal with her at times. However, he wrapped up his critique with a rare moment of self-awareness: “None of us are perfect.”
The “Grenade” Comment Controversy
If that wasn’t enough, Dorka addressed a lingering accusation from the Love Is Blind Season 7 reunion, where he was accused of calling Jiles a “grenade.” While he denied using the term, he didn’t hold back about his disappointment during their initial reveal. “To be fair, all the men were underwhelmed by their matches,” he said, sending fans into a frenzy over what this might say about the Love Is Blind matchmaking process.
Leo Braudy Clears the Air on Miami Drama
Meanwhile, Leo Braudy, another Season 7 favorite, tackled rumors surrounding his trip to Miami with ex-fiancée Brittany Wisniewski. Fans speculated that Brittany only went on the trip to take advantage of Braudy’s wealth, but the contestant was quick to shut those theories down.
“We genuinely wanted to go to Miami together,” Braudy explained. “We split most of the expenses, and the trip helped us realize we’re better off as friends.”
Despite their awkward on-screen reveal and eventual split, Braudy and Wisniewski have remained close. “We talk all the time,” he shared, leaving fans curious about how many other contestants share such amicable post-show relationships.
What’s Next?
With Love Is Blind Season 8 set to premiere on Valentine’s Day 2025, fans are left eagerly anticipating what new twists, turns, and controversies lie ahead. Until then, the fallout from Season 7 continues to spark debates and keep the internet buzzing.
Is Nick right about transformation being more than skin-deep? Will Leo and Brittany’s Miami trip ever stop being a hot topic? One thing’s for sure: Netflix knows how to keep its reality stars—and viewers—hooked.
