Monica Davis rose to fame in Love Is Blind season 7, where she matched with former veteran and current electrician Stephen Richardson, but where is she today? As a 38-year-old account executive from Washington, D.C., Monica was ready to find someone to settle down with. She found an unlikely love interest in Stephen, who was more blue-collar and had differing political beliefs. While it seemed they could have a relationship where opposites attract, a shocking revelation cut their journey short.
Only two couples from Love Is Blind season 7 made it down the aisle: scientists Taylor Krause and Garrett Josemans and religiously-rooted Ashley Adionser and alleged sperm donor Tyler Francis. The season was marred with drama, including Tyler’s paternity situation and Ramses’ antiquated beliefs about birth control. Love Is Blind villain Hannah Jiles berated Nick Dorka from the first episode through the reunion, and Leo Braudy couldn’t stop bragging about his Rolex. Ahead of Love Is Blind season 8, it’s time to catch up with Monica.
Monica Davis’ Journey On Love Is Blind
She Caught Stephen Cheating On Her
Monica and Stephen hit it off in the pods despite the red flags that they would never work out. Stephen liked to wax poetic about various topics, even bordering on “mansplaining” in the pods. One of his most memorable moments was admitting to Monica he recently discovered his Nigerian ancestry despite appearing white.
Cracks in the relationship began to show in Mexico. Monica expected Stephen to buy her expensive purses (Kate Spade wouldn’t cut it!) and flowers, and Stephen seemed more concerned with the “homewreckers sliding into [his] DMs” on Instagram, offering sexual favors. Her fiancé finally ruined the relationship for good when Stephen got drunk before a sleep test and messaged a mystery woman on social media about various sexual kinks and preferences.
Monica Revealed Some Drama On A Podcast
She Couldn’t Remember All The Details Of Stephen’s Texts
Monica revealed some drama during her interview on the Off The Vine podcast with Kaitlyn Bristowe. She spoke about how she should’ve noticed Stephen’s cheating was a red flag, despite thinking it was a beige flag because at least he admitted it. Monica also detailed how she found out Stephen cheated on her. Allegedly, Stephen was expecting a text from Garrett, so when his phone lit up, Monica checked his phone. There, she saw a long chain of messages detailing Stephen’s kinks. She ended it immediately after.
Monica Is In A Happy New Relationship
She’s Keeping His Identity Under Wraps
Monica is in a new relationship since her broken engagement blew up on the internet after Love Is Blind. According to @therealityashley, Monica has a new beau, though she’s keeping him under wraps. Marissa George also has a new boyfriend, who she hard-launched him on Halloween.
Monica wasn’t completely blameless in her relationship with Stephen, but he ultimately broke her trust.
After everything Monica has been through, it’s understandable that she’s trying to keep her personal life more private after Love Is Blind season 7. Stephen completely blindsided her with the text messages, and Monica didn’t deserve what happened to her, no matter how high-maintenance she could seem. Hopefully, Monica is with someone more trustworthy after being betrayed by Stephen.
