Two seasons out, why on earth would the contestants even be name-dropping him? Well, he&#8217;s explained what happened, and how he&#8217;d personally met some of the season eight stars.<\/p>\n<h2>Jimmy was mentioned on the Love Is Blind reunion<\/h2>\n<p>Sara mentioned Jimmy&#8217;s name on the Love Is Blind season eight reunion, seemingly because Ben had told her about the advice he&#8217;d given him as a former contestant. She basically said, &#8220;I don&#8217;t give a f***, his name was Jimmy.&#8221; He has since spoken out on a <a href=\"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/2025\/02\/26\/sara-reveals-shocking-axed-scenes-cut-from-love-is-blind-involving-ben-tiktok-drama\/\">TikTok<\/a> video to reveal that the producers connected him with Ben last year, as soon as he&#8217;d finished filming the show.<\/p>\n<p>Jimmy said, &#8220;It&#8217;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&#8217;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&#8217;ll be betrayed. I want to help any way I can. I have a special place in my heart for people on reality TV.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added, &#8220;I&#8217;m just a little slighted that I&#8217;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&#8217;s good based on how I felt during that period. I&#8217;m not even mad, I&#8217;m mad it came out. I&#8217;m two seasons removed from this and I wasn&#8217;t doing anything that wasn&#8217;t asked of me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Ben connected with Jimmy to help prepare him<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:500px\" ><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/LoveIsBlindOnNetflix\/comments\/1j8jh8a\/jimmy_from_s6_speaks_about_being_mentioned_in_the\/\">Jimmy from S6 speaks about being mentioned in the S8 Reunion<\/a><br \/> by<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/theunicornsquisher\/\">u\/theunicornsquisher<\/a> in<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/LoveIsBlindOnNetflix\/\">LoveIsBlindOnNetflix<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.reddit.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Jimmy revealed how Ben was &#8220;really anxious&#8221; about the reunion and &#8220;how to go about it,&#8221; which he described as &#8220;kinda normal.&#8221; He said, &#8220;The advice I gave was pretty simple, which was to go with the moment and not to sweat it until that time comes. I&#8217;m not mad at them, I think it&#8217;s TV. He probably trusted her [Sara] telling her my conversations with him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He said, &#8220;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&#8217;t say that but I do think it&#8217;s great advice to see what the Internet has to say and then come prepared for the reunion. I wasn&#8217;t talking to Ben and her, I was talking to Ben.
