The sparks from Love Is Blind Season 7 may have fizzled on-screen, but the drama between ex-fiancés Nick Dorka and Hannah Jiles continues to heat up in real life. At Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” live show in New York City, Dorka didn’t hold back when addressing Jiles’ much-discussed glow-up and her less-than-stellar relationships with castmates and family.
“She looks fantastic,” Dorka admitted, acknowledging her striking transformation. “But looks are only part of it. Personality matters, and she has some things to work on.”
Reality Check: Personality Over Looks
While Dorka praised Jiles’ dramatic weight loss and newfound confidence, he hinted at deeper issues, citing her fallouts with castmates Marissa George and Katie Bollinger.
“I was surprised when Marissa and Katie weren’t friends with her anymore,” Dorka said. “And even her family has had challenges with her at times. It’s about self-reflecting. None of us are perfect, but that’s something she might need to do.”
The comments were particularly biting given the couple’s tumultuous history, which unfolded during the season. In one memorable scene, Jiles criticized Dorka for being “immature” and even wrote a list of his “flaws” while they were in Mexico.
The “Grenade” Rumor and More Drama
Dorka also took the opportunity to clear the air about allegations that he called Jiles a “grenade” after meeting her outside the pods.
“I never said that,” he clarified. “I did say I was underwhelmed, but honestly, most of the guys felt that way about their matches. A lot of things got taken out of context.”
Despite his critiques, Dorka seemed to wish Jiles well—though with a heavy dose of sarcasm. “I think she’ll find the right person someday—maybe,” he quipped.
Glow-Up Gossip: Jiles’ Transformation Steals Headlines
Since the season wrapped, Jiles has embraced a health and wellness journey, shedding pounds and igniting online speculation about her methods. The reality star has denied rumors of using Ozempic, revealing instead that she’s focused on making smarter food choices.
“I tried Ozempic, but it made me too sick,” Jiles told Us Weekly in October. “Now, I’m just more cautious about what I eat.”
The 27-year-old also revealed she underwent liposuction before filming, further fueling discussions about her stunning transformation.
Love Is Blind, But Is Forgiveness?
As Dorka and Jiles continue to address their rocky relationship in public, fans are left wondering if either will find closure—or if this is just the beginning of their post-show drama.
For now, one thing is clear: The drama off-screen is just as juicy as anything Netflix served up during Season 7. Stay tuned for what’s next in this ongoing reality TV saga!
