Despite everything, Ali is still somehow defending Anton’s behaviour on Love Is Blind
She addressed *those* drinking scenes
When we tune into Love Is Blind season nine and watch couples reunite after the pods, it’s easy to glaze over the drinking scenes with a little eye-roll, but Ali Lima just pulled back the curtain in a way that’s part yikes, part thank goodness she said something.
Overall, though, it still seems like she’s defending her partner’s behaviour. Here’s the juicy rundown on what really went down…
What really went down behind the drinks
If you remember the cowboy-themed party episode, that’s where the sparks started to ignite, but not exactly romantic ones.
After the gathering, Ali suggested she and Anton crack open a drink.
But when she goes to the fridge, she’s floored. The twelve-pack they were supposed to share is long gone, as is another twelve-pack of Coors and half a bottle of tequila.
Ali confronted Anton: “Where did it all go?” He replied defensively: “I didn’t do anything with them. That was all you.” To which Ali thought: “Wait, what?”
She later told Swooon that the sheer volume of alcohol missing was alarming. She didn’t just see it as a drinking issue, she saw it as a red flag for their future, especially if things got murkier off-camera.
Ali seemingly defended the whole thing, though. She acknowledged that reality TV skews everything. Considering the constant cameras, high-stakes dynamics, and emotional stress, she urged that it’s not real life viewers are witnessing.
Still, seeing that much booze missing was not just a ‘party night’ in her eyes.
Are Ali and Anton still together?
Despite the drama, at the time of Netflix Tudum’s update, Ali and Anton were still listed as a couple.
Their relationship in the pods was strong, with similar backgrounds, shared dreams, and support for being authentic. But once they moved in together and the glam of the show faded, little cracks like finances, chores, and drinking started showing.
Cosmopolitan later reported that their status remained ‘together’ post-filming.
But being ‘together’ doesn’t always mean ‘thriving’, and some folks have a whole theory that they’ve actually broken up, and Anton could have a new girlfriend?!
