Major Love Is Blind editing error finally proves the pods are completely staged

A major editing error during Love Is Blind season seven has gone towards proving a theory we’ve probably all had since day one: The pods are staged. The continuity error from the latest episodes hints production is definitely getting involved a lot more than the show is letting on.

During the first few episodes of any season of Love Is Blind, we see all members of the new cast step into the pods for the first time. They go on almost like a speed dating type of experience, dating loads of other cast members before initial connections are formed.

In the first episode of season seven, Tim and Alex went on their first date. The couple sat down, and got straight into talking about astrology and compatibility. At first, Alex was seen all dressed up for her date, but had clearly picked comfort too – opting for a pair of fluffy slippers on her feet.

But then, in less than a second, and whilst the couple still appeared to be talking about their star signs, Alex is wearing heels! As if by magic. The camera showed Tim’s reaction to something she said, and then a second later went back to Alex’s pod and her shoe change had happened.

There literally wasn’t even a second of time for this to have actually happened, and when Alex entered the pod, she didn’t have any other shoes with her, nor were there any already in the pod. So, either she left and came back in different shoes, or a huge amount of time had passed.

This is what the cast of Love Is Blind season seven actually do, according to their LinkedIns

Given the change of shoes, it’s probably likely she arrived in heels and later left to put more comfortable shoes on – so this date was shown to us completely backwards. Production is playing tricks with us, as it was made to appear like this all happened without Alex even changing sentence.

The change is so apparent, it could actually be that this was two different dates, made to appear to us as one. Either way, this isn’t at all how the conversation or date went, and something major has been changed here to make it look different for us at home. I need to know why this happened and what was actually said?! Netflix, explain!

It’s previously been wondered if the Love Is Blind pods are staged, and this editing error hints they are. According to Sal from season two, cast members are given suggestions of things to talk about during their pod dates.
