This Love Is Blind star has one serious warning for people coming out of the experiment
He's one of a few participants who's still happily married
When the pods finally close and the vows are – sometimes – signed, what comes next is what really counts.
Brett Brown, who found his way through the chaos of Love Is Blind and came out the other side married to his partner, Tiffany, now has some flat-out honest advice for anyone thinking about doing the experiment or surviving it.
He and Tiffany have carved out some seriously impressive careers post-show, but he’s here to remind everyone that it’s certainly not all this is about…
Brett’s journey from pods to real life
Brett’s story began on Love Is Blind season four, where he and Tiffany Pennywell made the leap from “Will you marry me?” to “We’re building a full-blown life together.”
Their success is often held up as one of the more positive outcomes of a show built on fast-tracked relationships.
What makes Brett interesting isn’t just that he found a match, it’s how he approached it. Before the cameras, he talked openly about his own mindset, his background as a design director, and how stepping into the unknown was terrifying and thrilling at once, per Portland Monthly.
Brett’s spoken about being introverted, building community, and wanting more than just a reality TV moment. When it comes to the best advice he was ever given, he said: “Get comfortable being uncomfortable.” Now, he’s got some knowledge to share with people exiting Love Is Blind season nine…
Brett’s advice worth noting
Here’s the nugget Brett wants you to carry: “Know who you are.”
“…because post-show, you can get pulled into responding to comments, it can get into how you feel about yourself, insecurities. There is money to be made, brand opportunities, really understand who you are and what you want to do.”
He continued during AD’s What’s the Reality podcast: “Yes, you can do brand stuff, but you don’t have to be a full-time influencer… don’t feel like you have to be something that the public thinks you are or wants you to be. Be really grounded with yourself.”
According to Grazia, he had an estimated net worth of $250,000 to $350,000 post-show, so it seems he’s one to take note from.
When it came to advice for sticking together as a Love Is Blind couple, Brett also told People: “Do the work within yourself to understand yourself better. The more you know yourself and the more comfortable you are in your skin, the better you can show up for the people that matter.”
The show might dramatise finding love fast, but the real growth seemingly happens after.
Brett reminded folks that once the cameras stop rolling, you still have choices to make, real-life compromises to figure out, and your authenticity to maintain. “…not everything has to be a social-media moment.”
