Jimmy has just broken his silence on randomly being mentioned in the Love Is Blind reunion
It was all part of the show procedure
Jimmy from Love Is Blind season six has finally spoken out on why he was randomly mentioned on the show’s season eight reunion. Two seasons out, why on earth would the contestants even be name-dropping him? Well, he’s explained what happened, and how he’d personally met some of the season eight stars.
Jimmy was mentioned on the Love Is Blind reunion
Sara mentioned Jimmy’s name on the Love Is Blind season eight reunion, seemingly because Ben had told her about the advice he’d given him as a former contestant. She basically said, “I don’t give a f***, his name was Jimmy.” He has since spoken out on a TikTok video to reveal that the producers connected him with Ben last year, as soon as he’d finished filming the show.
Jimmy said, “It’s pretty standard protocol, I was connected with people from a season when I was filming. I was connected to people from last season as well. It’s solely to help them navigate that period of time where you probably have a ton of anxiety waiting for your season to air and how you’ll be betrayed. I want to help any way I can. I have a special place in my heart for people on reality TV.”
He added, “I’m just a little slighted that I’m being pointed out for giving bad advice. All I really did was be the sounding board for him and supporting him and making sure he’s good based on how I felt during that period. I’m not even mad, I’m mad it came out. I’m two seasons removed from this and I wasn’t doing anything that wasn’t asked of me.”

Jimmy revealed how Ben was “really anxious” about the reunion and “how to go about it,” which he described as “kinda normal.” He said, “The advice I gave was pretty simple, which was to go with the moment and not to sweat it until that time comes. I’m not mad at them, I think it’s TV. He probably trusted her [Sara] telling her my conversations with him.”
He said, “She either misconstrued that information or she felt hurt as her back was against the wall. But why would I tell them to come together to be rehearsed for reunion questions? I definitely didn’t say that but I do think it’s great advice to see what the Internet has to say and then come prepared for the reunion. I wasn’t talking to Ben and her, I was talking to Ben. Come on!”
