Netflix’s hit reality dating series Love Is Blind is back for season 10, and fans are already buzzing. Following a historic season 9 — where, for the first time in franchise history, no couple tied the knot — the pods are opening once again to see if love really is blind.
The show, hosted by real-life couple Nick Lachey and Vanessa Lachey since its 2020 debut, challenges singles to form connections sight unseen. Contestants spend days getting to know each other in the pods, unable to see the person on the other side. After leaving the pods, the newly engaged couples enter the real world, navigating life outside the pods to determine whether their bond can survive reality. Ultimately, they face the ultimate question at the altar: Is love truly blind?
Netflix announced the season 10 renewal in January 2025, alongside season 9, giving fans a guaranteed return before the drama and altar heartbreak of season 9 even aired. This season, singles from across Ohio will take part, with participants coming from cities like Cincinnati and Columbus.
Season 9 was unprecedented, marking the first finale in Love Is Blind history where no couples got married. “I’m honestly surprised this is the first season where nobody got married,” creator Chris Coelen told Tudum in October 2025. “While we’re always rooting for our participants to find a lifelong commitment — because that’s what they all say they come to Love Is Blind for — most importantly, we root for them to make the decisions they feel are right for themselves. And I think that’s what happened here.”
Fans can mark their calendars: Love Is Blind season 10 will premiere on February 11, 2026. The series continues its alternating February and October release schedule, a pattern that has remained since season 6. For reference, season 6 premiered on Valentine’s Day 2024, season 7 dropped in October 2024, season 8 in February 2025, and season 9 in October 2025.
Each season of Love Is Blind has featured singles from a different city, giving the show fresh faces and regional flavor. For season 10, Ohio will take center stage, bringing together singles from across the state to test whether emotional connections can survive the real world after the pods.
As always, fans can expect romance, heartbreak, and jaw-dropping moments as participants navigate love in its purest — and blindest — form. With season 10, the franchise continues to push boundaries and explore the fascinating question at its core: can love truly flourish without physical attraction guiding the way?
