After finishing their 4th season, the show is back with its highly anticipated Season 5. Yet again, we have a diverse cast of singles who embarked on a quest to find true love. Among the couples that stole our hearts, JP and Taylor stood out as an endearing duo.
The connection between these two seems to be very adorable and unbreakable from the very beginning. However, changes and breaks can’t be ignored. Only one question lingers in the minds of fans everywhere: Are JP and Taylor still together?
The 5th season of “Love is Blind” started on September 22, 2023. Within a few episodes of the series, JP and Taylor got engaged with each other, and the couple was very invested in each. However, JP’s comments on Taylor’s makeup, calling it “caked up”, hurt Taylor badly. Following the argument, Taylor decided to cut off all ties with JP and gave the engagement ring back. Both JP and Taylor are separated and are no longer together now.
Are JP and Taylor from “Love is Blind” Still Together?
Love is a feeling that is so pure and simple. However, the journey of any love story has its rocks and mountains. In this ever-evolving landscape of reality television, “Love is Blind” has emerged as a groundbreaking and thought-provoking series.
The show challenges the conventional ways of attraction and connection to the point that viewers wonder if it is real or scripted.
The reality television series was created by Chris Coelen and is produced by Kinetic Content. It was launched on February 13, 2020, on Netflix as a part of a three-week event. The premise of the series is simple yet profound: Can you truly fall in love with someone you’ve never seen? With each episode, the show digs deeper into the complexities of human emotions, trust, and vulnerability.
“Love is Blind” invites 15 men and 15 women who are ready to transcend the boundaries of physical appearances to find true love. They set it in a distinctive environment known as the “pods,” singles are introduced to a group of potential partners.
The catch? They can’t see each other. As the show precedes, conversations flow, emotions ignite, and meaningful connections. As the bonds between couples strengthen, the couples need to take the ultimate leap, “Engagement.”
The show just released season 5 on September 22, 2023, and the audience already witnessed heartbreak. As soon as the episodes premiered, people could feel the love between JP and Taylor. The quiet JP was fascinated by the bubbly Taylor from day 1. Their personalities complement each other, appealing to the hearts of viewers.
In a matter of time, both got engaged and became the first couple of the show. Initially, the journey in the pods was easy for both of them. However, tension could be seen between the two. They had one of the most aggressive fights ever since they came to the pods.
JP remarked on his thoughts over Taylor’s makeup, commenting as “caked up” and “fake”. He said,
“I understand you tried to present yourself, and look as best you could, but I feel like if you would’ve presented yourself like this, without any makeup, it would have been better…It felt like you were fake.”
Upon hearing such words, Taylor was visibly hurt and chose to spend the night apart from him. The cruel comments were solid enough to temper the new relationship as Taylor ended the engagement, returning her ring to JP. The couple is officially separated and are no longer together. Fans are also upset with JP’s stance over makeup.
