<p id=”par-1_76″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/love-is-blind/?swcfpc=1″><em>Love Is Blind</em></a><em> </em>is moving on. The seventh season of the hit Netflix reality series wrapped up on Oct. 30 with a reunion special that brought together key D.C. cast members to share updates on their lives. But fans hoping to see more of <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/love-is-blind-ashley-tyler-say-i-do-despite-complicated-sperm-donor-situation.html/”>Tyler and Ashley</a> or Taylor and Garrett will be disappointed. There are no plans to film an <em>After the Altar </em>special for season 7, <em>Love Is Blind </em>creator Chris Coelen recently confirmed. </p>

<p id=”par-2_64″><em>Love Is Blind, </em>which premiered in 2020, follows groups of singles as they go on blind dates (literally) in the show’s signature pods. Couples who form a pod connection get engaged, sight unseen. They then live together for several weeks before heading to the altar to either say “I do” or break things off on their wedding day (assuming they make it that far). </p>
<p id=”par-3_58″>But what happens to <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/love-is-blind-season-7-brittany-leo-after-pods.html/”><em>Love Is Blind </em>couples</a> after the cameras go away? The show’s first four seasons offered insight into post-show relationships thanks to the <em>After the Altar </em>specials. The three-episode mini-seasons dropped months after the reunion episode and checked in with various cast members, including some who didn’t get married, to see how they were faring. </p>
<p id=”par-4_55″>The last <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/love-is-blind-after-the-altar-raven-says-colleen-matt-fight-a-lot-point-blank-period.html/”><em>After the Altar </em>special</a> aired in September 2023. It followed people from <em>Love Is Blind </em>Season 4. Since then, three more seasons of the show have aired, but there have been no <em>After the Altar </em>episodes for those seasons. That’s a deliberate choice, Coelen said in a recent interview with <a href=”https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/love-is-blind-reunion-cast-vetting-chris-coelen-1236049460/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Hollywood Reporter</a>. </p>
<p id=”par-5_19″>”No. Not interested in doing that,” he said when asked if there would be more <em>After the Altar </em>specials. </p>

<p id=”par-6_20″>Coelen said that while <em>After the Altar </em>sounds intriguing on paper, it’s not actually that interesting to make or watch. </p>
<p id=”par-7_60″>“It sounds fun to catch up, and that’s one of the reasons with the reunion now — it’s fun to catch up and see where some of your favorites have been,” he explained. “But when you get into an <em>After the Altar</em> structure, it becomes more like a docuseries. And docuseries, as many people know, are really driven by drama.” </p>
<p id=”par-8_18″>The result? A show that feels like it’s there just for the sake of being there, Coelen said. </p>
<p id=”par-9_92″>“And to go into an <em>After the Altar</em> with [<em>Love Is Blind </em>Season 4 couples] Brett and Tiffany or <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/love-is-blind-zack-reveals-meeting-bliss-dad-edited-out-connection.html/”>Zach and Bliss</a> or whoever, where’s the drama going to be? It doesn’t feel real; it feels like at that point you’re just making something that’s kind of for the sake of making it” he said “It’s not an exciting idea for a show. It doesn’t really feel fulfilling to me as a producer. And I think, ultimately, even though people liked it to some extent, I just don’t think it’s that great.”</p>
